Help me pick a receiver: HK AVR 320 or Denon 1802 (1 Viewer)

[ArmenK]

I have come down to 2 choices for a receiver: HK AVR 320 and Denon 1802. Im leaning towards the HK so far because it has 7.1 processing which I can use later on if I buy an amp. Anyone have any reasons to pick one over the other? Thanks

add the Marantz SR-5200 to the above choices

Stick with the H/K...better Bass Management options, DPLII and Logic7, great detailed sound and plenty of clean power despite the very conservative rating. What speakers will you be running

 

[ArmenK]

Running some low end Acoustic Research bookshelf speakers for now

Im with Paul on this one. The HK is definitely a great choice. They JUST sound cleaner I think.
