The VSX-1120-K has 9 full-size binding posts, and
pre-outs. Hopefully that means all 9 channels get simultaneous amplification, or at least you can run all 9 (10 counting the sub) pre-outs at the same time.
Along with multi-channel phase control (my 1018 only does front and sub channels), this looks to be a really nice receiver. But a bit over the $400 price of this thread. With a $750 list, one will probably be able to pick it up for $600 in 6 months.
Oh, I know about the pre-outs, because I found this pic:
