Thanks for the kind words daman. If you notice, I haven't been around much lately--- too busy enjoying the new receiver! I just hooked up my SACD player and was blown away- serious, s***-eatin' grin that I walked around with all weekend. Really, really pleased.

I ordered on a Sat and had by Wed.

You gotta make a gut call. My internet-bought 5790 has worked without a charm for the last week at least :-) To me the money saved was signficant enough that it was worth the gamble. If we were talking $20-$40 I'd have been at Best Buy too... but I got my DVD player for free, basically...

Daman- just to be clear, the 5760's YPAO is a dumbed down version of the full-blown YPAO that the 5790 and above has. Now, I don't claim to be an expert on this stuff, but I am concerned enough that my room isn't the "ideal" setup that I'm looking forward to every piece of help I get. I...

Well everyone was so helpful that by the time I get a chance to reply it's all been said! I don't think you can go wrong with the 5760. That's what I was planning on getting all along until I started surfing around for actual street prices. I then concluded that the 5790 wasn't 'that' much...

Yes, that's definitely true :frowning: The 1400 is much sharper looking imho. I got the 5790 solely due to cost savings.

Matt- I just replied to you on a different thread for Sony HS420 TVs. We must be on the same upgrade timeline. Actually, I may be a little ahead of you on the receivers. I just bought at the 5790 after much research here and elsewhere. I bought sight unseen, but I had seen and heard the...
