I don't like any of the ambience modes my Denon offers but think that, most of the time, PLII does surprisingly well in music mode.

Nah, I think it's a personal thing.
Exactly! There is no "right" or "wrong" when it comes to this issue. It's all about what YOU find pleasing.

ditto, my 3805 has a bunch of DSP modes that aren't worth the time to flip through. (other than the novelty factor when you first get it) though the "Mono Movie" mode did sound rather good when i watched "The 7th Voyage of Sinbad"

So far as a receiver for your new setup, there're several excellent ones in your price range, and I'll especially bring to your attention the HK635 which is offered by J&R Music at a very good price of a little under $700 with shipping included.
John, I see that J&R has the 635 listed as $749 now. Maybe it will come back down.

I think the mute button would've worked better.

I'm thinking the Power button would make for the best AV experience with that one.

only if it had worked on my wife when she was laughing and making comments on the cheesy dialog in that flick!
