So, I've read most all of it… I has come down to this:
Marantz SR6001 - $499 refurb
HK 347 - $360 refurb
Prefer musical quality over gizmos:
Hookups:
Current Receiver Onkyo 602
Ready… BREAK!
Marantz SR6001 - $499 refurb
- No OSD over HDMI
- HDMI 1.2 (doesn't really matter)
- UP convert to 480p only
HK 347 - $360 refurb
- LFE bug with HDMI for TrueHD or DTS-HA (firmware update ever?)
Prefer musical quality over gizmos:

Current Receiver Onkyo 602
Ready… BREAK!
