| +/-: Denon 4308CI, Onkyo 905, or Arcam AVR350
About to invest in my first HT setup (to be used in family room, 18 x 19 x 20 high), and I thought I was all set on my receiver choice of the Denon 4308CI.
I still like that choice, but between this board and a knowledge local sales rep, two alternatives are beginning to creep into the picture: Onkyo 905 and the Arcam AVR350. Sales rep >loves< the Arcam, and it looks like it may be the best for music, but I'm concerned about the passive video throughput via two older HDMI ports (e.g., no upscaling, no 1.3).
Thoughts on the + or - of the various models? Likely to be playing through a B&W 684-based 5.1 surround system with an SVS PC-Ultra sub. TV = Pioneer 5080HD.
