I agree with you that the Sony sounds better. But, sadly, the Sony doesn't provide at least a 6 channel input for future upgrading, especially with all these DVD-A and SACD stuff coming, we as consumers may want to be able to add an outboard DAC or decoder for the future formats.On the other hand, Denon has 8 channel inputs! (7+1) and same number of outputs! I think this is really unbeatable for a all in one unit.
You can add or upgrade both the input side and the amplification side, and although the sound quality may not match the Sony, I think its not much a gap and more or less down to taste.But I have heard some buzz that the Sony is coming out with a new P9000ES unit which goes before the preamp unit, it will accept both DVD-A and SACD signals. No idea yet whether it is a decoder or DAC or whatever, I saw a picture (the front view) of this unit but can't find anything about this unit in the Sony site (which I think is to commercial).
I would like to hear more from you guys out there your opinion on this.
