Both are competitively priced and I am considering both. The guy at
www.hipposaudiovideo.com gave me a price for the Marantz Sr-4500 for $339 shipped. I was previously considering the Denon AVR-1905 until this deal came along. How does the sound on the Marantz compare to the Denon in general? I think i read somewhere that the Marantz sound is geared for more of a musical affect and the Denon for movies. I am mostly going to be playing cinema with the reciever, not so much for music. Is this true? Thanks for the help!
