Is there a Circuit City near by? They carry H/K now.
Compared a H/K 325 to a Denon 2803. I listened hard for the warmth vs. brightness difference and while I thought I heard something, they sounded pretty close.
Features and power were the real difference. Denon had more rear connections A/B mains switch and better remote. HK had much better bass management, a flavor of Logic 7 that I like better than the Dolby and DTS matrixing, and most importantly for me, much more punch in music and home theater.
