Pioneer elite vsx-92txh vs deono 2809ci

[arriagaicardo]

Can any body help me with this problem, i was on the process to upgrade my receiver, i went to best buy(i buy there because i get the 18 monts no interest, but they carry only elites or denons) i found the elite for vsx-92txh $799(it is an open box),i bought it, it seems to be a great reciver with lots of options to play with and certifications like Thx select2, air studios tunning, elite has mcacc vs denon's auddisey, etc, but i found the elite very complicated to navigate throught it, i have experience with denons and i love them, i wanted to get the 2809ci but the price on the elite gain me, my questions are:

Is the elite 92txh any better or at list as good as the 2809 denon?

if not, the price that i got it for will make up that diference?

Thank you for your help, i tried to do some research for the pioneer but there is not a single pro review posted on the internet

No one here is going to be able to tell you that one thing is better than another without voicing nothing more than a personal opinion.

I have the 92txh and I could tell you its better than the denon and then someone with a denon can say that theirs is better.

Its all about personal choice and honestly with comparable recievers the best thing to do is not worry if you got the right receiver but to worry if you got the best price, which I think for the 92 being an open box you were charged too much. I got mine brand new for $800 and with the new line of elites that should become the regular price for most places.

Your speakers are going to be the most important part of your system and will have the most impact on your sound, that should be the biggest focus of your system.

I agree with Stripes on this one. With the SC series already at Best Buy, you should be able to get the 92 at a really good price- unopened.
