Two different features.Dialogue lift is using Presence. Virtual(hence, the word virtual) Dialogue lift does not use Presence speakers.They are not used "together".If you put in Presence, you use one. If you don't, you use other one.

You aren't finding that in a store, no. Accessories for less(maybe) and Amazon will be it. However...you "might" have more luck with the RX-A720, but I doubt it.

Yep.

And I presume you set the 5560 up as... 1. No subwoofer 2. Front "large" (which if you picked "no subwoofer" this was default) Do not do that with the never AVR.

No that explanation doesn't make sense. I know the Polk surrounds are the di-pole...which is why I said the "surrounds create a diffuse dead zone". However you connected your subwoofer before is irrelevant to how you'll do it now. Modern AVR have bass management duties. It arranges the sound...

By the way. I'm in my 40s. I grew up with Quadraphonic and building Heathkit(I'm the youngest child...2nd marriage...and my father is also youngest of his siblings, my mothers parents were in their 40s when she was born). I grew up with stuff from a decade before I should even have known about...

If you want "easy integration of the VCR", you need the 673(or 671 if you can find one...675 is the newest). Ignore any Yamaha starting 3, 4 or 5. I'm sorta in the same boat as FM. You "could" switch up your fronts to Polk...or switch out to Klipsch. But...it is your ears...and what your ears...

Yes the 591 has HDMI upconversion. You need that for the VCR.It would be the only used AVR I would consider, for you.Everything else, used, is going to be newer(and get close to the cost of the refurb E400).

Still on Denon's website... http://usa.denon.com/us/Product/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?PCatId=AVSolutions(DenonNA)&CatId=AVReceivers(DenonNA)&Pid=AVR591(DenonNA)

Not that I want to tread "used" again. But I will for this one. And only this one. Watch this to see if the price stays under $175, including the shipping. It is right up your alley... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Denon-Avr-591-/261366124723?pt=Receivers_Tuners&hash=item3cdaa290b3 Glow in the dark...

You are the opposite of me on a camera lens. Used lenses scare me(yeah you can get your money back on Ebay if they lied...but still). I won't bat an eye at a used DVD/BD player. Nor will I bat an eye at an AVR...if the prices are right. (of course I buy/sell used AV equipment as part of my living)

It all depends if you want to spend $400-$500 on new...or Under $300(easily) for a used AVR (there are more to choose from than that one) OR a refurb...(only listing if they have HDMI upconversion)...

Ignore that...unless you get a 2nd subwoofer.

Not that I want to dissuade you from a "new" AVR, but... If you want simple(without all the crap you won't need/use)...buy an older AVR...such as... http://www.ebay.com/itm/ONKYO-TX-SR606-7-1-Channel-A-V-Surround-Receiver-/251414150969?pt=Receivers_Tuners&hash=item3a89737f39 For $220(with the...

The Denon E400 has "HDMI upconversion"(that is the feature where analog..composite or component, is handed off to the HDMI to the TV). To get that in a Yamaha requires one starting with a 6...675, 673...
