Im having second thoughts about my purchase of the HK AVR 225 - I dont know if Im looking for reassurance here or what, but I just noticed the place where I bought my receiver from has the Yammy RX-V640 there now too, in the used section, for the same price I bought my HK for, plus it does 6.1 decoding (which I wont use) but has the option for dual zones (which it does power), and has more power output in RMS than my HK.(75Wx6 for Yammy vs 55wX5 for HK) On top of that it has component inputs and outputs, which my HK does not have. Should I bring it back and trade it in?
If anyone is interested here is the Yammy manual link:
http://www.yamaha.com/yec/customer/manuals/PDFs/RXV640_E.PDF
And the HK AVR225 link:
http://manuals.harman.com/HK/Owner%27s%20Manual/AVR%20225%20OM%20FINAL%20REV%203-28-03.pdf

Any thoughts or experiences?
I just want the best bang for my buck here, and I want to get the longest period of time out of it, hence the worrying about the component inputs (My tv does not do components, but my next one will...)

Oh yeah this is the yammy

I also just noticed the yammy does not have an OSD. Just those mini setups on the display...Am I just being a paranoid ass?
