However I agree not to purchase that one, based on the units performance. I do prefer a denon as well, but denon is getting funky outside of their high end line, at least with objectively. The 3700H was a beast. I would give it[marantz] a pass if you are only going to run 5 channels.

Marantz warranty for newer AVRs is 5 years:

In this deal, you get 1 year with Marantz and remaining 4 years with CPS. Any experience with CPS claims? I rather buy new for a bit more manufacturer warranty.

I wouldn't say another $800 is a bit more. Everywhere reputable is $1700 new.
Hence my Denon 2800 rec! Why pay more?
the reviews on cps are far from posotive

The big advantage to the Marantz over the x2800 is a full set of pre-outs, which you'd need to step up to the x3800 to get. Not to mention the new Cinema line is genuinely different than the SR line when it comes to internals. All to say you can't really say it's an awful price.
That being said, you could save more money and go with the Cinema 70s because it has pre-outs too. I just don't like that the Cinema 70s and 60 have a more basic Audyssey. I've become accustomed to XT 32 on my x3600 and don't think I could go back.

57W for 2CH on 8 ohm sweep at ~77 SINAD.
85W for 2CH on 4 ohm sweep at ~75 SINAD (weird hump from 6-50W on curve).
