Looking to purchase a new/refurbished AVR receiver and have narrowed it down to 3. I'm looking for the best quality & longevity using this for home theater and music. Important for me is running a 7.1 system, networking/internet, sirius, pandora, HD radio, hook up MP3 player.
The rest of my system:
TV- Panny 54G25
Front Speakers- Polk Monitor 60
Side - NHT
Rear surround- Polk RC601R ceiling mount
Sub- Cadence XSub
(1) Refurbished Denon AVR3310CI or 990 (basically the same)
Pro:
Best quality of the 3 across the board
Con:
May be overwhelming to set up, I'm kinda green in all of this
Refurbished and from either Dakmart or Ecost
(2) Refurbished Onkyo TXNR807
Pro:
More power than the other two, this will be in a partially open basement
Ac4L a more trusted dealer
Con:
Refurbished
A notch below Denon for quality and longevity
(3) New Pioneer VSX1120
Pro:
New rather than refurbished
A lot of bells and whistles
Con:
Also a notch below Denon
I don't need 3D or Ipod features
Pioneer speaker set up inferior to Audyssey ????
Opinions please
Also how does the Onkyo Audyssey ???? DSX compare to Denon MultEQ
