Howdy.
I've been looking around quite a while but I cant really find a thread that talks about this specifically. My bad if it has been discussed.
I'm looking for a new receiver. I'm trying to figure out what the differences are between two seemingly basically identical receivers that can justify the higher price range. For example, the Denon - AVR-S970H and Denon - AVR-X2800H are just about the same. They have the same features as far as I can tell. The only obvious difference I can see is that the X2800H has 5W more per channel. There are quite a few examples like this from brand to brand but these two are probably at the top of my list.
I guess my question is: what justifies a higher price between two receivers that have the same features? I don't know what to look for.
