Feedback help on getting a new Denon receiver

Whats up everyone! Earlier this year, I finished overhauling my theater system, but(as I'm sure many of the people here get this feeling) I am always thinking "what if"? What I currently have are a pair of Klipsch wf-34's, matching center and surrounds with the xw-300d subwoofer.Within 8 months, I have had two receivers and am already thinking about upgrading again(I swear its a disease). Being a student, I can never get too crazy with cost, but as a Best Buy employee, I get great discounts. My current receiver is the somewhat entry level Denon AVR-790. My store is currently selling a shelf display of the Denon AVR-3310CI for around $400 which isn't much more than what I originally spend for my current Denon. Obviously, the 3310 has much more power and hookups, but what I am most interested in is just overall sound quality, clarity, depth, imaging etc. Since I live in a townhouse with a shared wall,(with a brick firewall inbetween however) I usually hardly ever get past -15dB on my current receiver. If I went through the trouble of selling my current receiver and going through the trouble of getting the 3310 all set up, in my current living situation, do any of you think the troubles out weigh the benifits of the better receiver? Remember, sound quality is more important to me than overall power and volume, although my next home will be a house however. My store also has a handful of Pioneer Elites "end of life" 2009 receivers for some great prices too, but haven't looked too much into them quit yet. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I don't think you will be able the tell a difference in sound quality.

But I still think it's worth getting the AVR-3310 if you can sell the AVR-790.:D
