I'm leaning towards the a710. My understanding is that it will upscale to 1080. Which makes me a little confused why the a720 wouldn't. The 710 is also XM ready where the a720 isn't (something I would use). I'm not too concerned about airplay. I've found several sources selling the 710 for...

I'm sure this is an easy question for most of you but the more I research the more confused I become. I have a 11' x 13' bonus room that I'm going to furnish w/ a TV, stereo and in-ceiling speakers. I want to play both the stereo system and the TV through the speakers. I'm thinking about...
