I'm looking for a new reciever in the <= $400 price range. Both of these recievers seem to fit what I need. The list price for the Denon is $399 however I can get this cheaper...more like $320 new (not refurbished). The Yamaha I can get for $348. Both are 6.1 recievers.
The fundamental difference to me is power. The Denon is listed at 75W at 8 ohms and the Yahmaha is listed at 90W 8Ohms, 20Hz - 20KHz. Not sure if Yahamaha is accurate with their power ratings or not. I'm assuming Denon is conservative with theirs. Anyone have experience with either of these.
I listen primarily to music and at relatively loud levels.
Thanks
