Anyone listen to the Marantz SR5300?

I am thinking of picking up a refurb one for a temporary HT receiver. I heard it's music abilities are great, and disprove the old 'HT receivers do not play music well.'

I am just curious if it is worth it to go out of my way to listen to one. I am pretty set on two models already, wondering if throwing this third in is worth it or not.

I also have never done much with Marantz products. I have heard of a few problems with the X300 series, like it taking a fraction of a second for digital audio to start playing, meanign you missed the fraction of a second on the next track.

Grateful for any opionions.
