Denon 4310CI vs Yamaha RX-Z7

[pbenj]

I currently own a RX-Z7 and except for sending it in to have the Sys Control circuit replaced have been very pleased with it.

My parents are in the process of upgrading their HT to HD/HDMI, new TV and new AVR. They currently have my old RX-V800 which has served them well with no issues and they have been very pleased with it sonically.

I'm stuck between recommending the 4310CI and RX-Z7 to them. the 4310CI can be purchased for $100 less than the RX-Z7.

I'm interested in your opinion. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you,
Paul

I'd be happy with either one of those, but may opt for the Denon personally.

Even for the same price I would opt for the 4310.

I'd give the nod to the Yammy.

 

[AVRat]

I'd save some cash and go for the 3310!

By default the 4310ci got scooped....

The price was really good on both the 4310CI and RX-Z7. Checked on the RX-Z7 and it was sold out, so scooped up the 4310CI for them. Found a coupon code and even got an additional $20 off.

Once I setup the Denon, I hope I'm not jealous. lol

Thanks everyone! Happy Thanksgiving.
