The slightly better S970H has been $350 new at Adorama a couple times recently. But if Costco offers additional warranty on top of what the manufacturer does or if you just want to pick it up locally, the S760H may be a better option for some.
Dis you like it? Any issues? Would you get it again?
I got one during that $209 refurb sale. The packaging of the receive was fine. The unit itself was in great condition minus a few scratches on the clear plastic display. However, you only notices said scratches in direct lighting. The unit ships with the latest firmware and all the HDMI ports and speaker ports seemed to be working without issue.
I had a previous one from Costco before returning it to get the Onkyo TX-NR6050 which has more power and better GUI and network configuration options. That said, I couldn't resist picking it up for half the cost I paid new and I honestly think the Denon has a better sound pairing with the Polk speakers I use. Just make sure to turn off any CEC and HDMI power configuration features in the HDMI settings or you'll have occasional random switching of inputs.

AVR-X1700H Refurbished is back in stock. Do you have any coupon codes to make it lower? Thanks

Yes I got it for $209. There are horror stories on reddit and SD about Denon refurbs and others saying it's great.
My experience was pretty good. A small scratch on the volume knob on the receiver which really doesn't matter to me. All the functions work exactly like the one I got from costco.
My fellow SD'ers -- is this the best bang for the buck future-proof receiver one can get right now?
