When was the last time THX meant something (probably when Lucas was still making Star Wars movies)? I wouldn't lose any sleep over the lack of THX!

FYI this is often compared to the Onkyo TX-RZ70.
Here is a comparison of the two.

Curious about the price drop after they just announced the RZ30? Are more new offerings coming out?

Depends, if using as a pre-amp the Denon. (with audysssey)
Pioneer for everything else. Although the DACs in this will be much better for music.
Pioneer is built way better in the amp section, which weighs 20 pounds more than the Denon. This also has Dirac DLFB built in... Denon is a purchase option, if going Dirac route you're already paying more for the inferior Denon.

From someone with experience with both(own the 3800).
If you have no brand preference and at those prices easily this is the better pick!
This is a lot of value for the price imo!

About the only pluses with the 3800 is extra two independent sub outs and Auro 3D.
Here is a comparison of the two.

Is the lack of thx modes on the lx805 vs the RZ70 a factor or considered a miss for the pricier sibling?

Unless I absolutely need 4 sub-outs, this 805 is a way better value than the 3800!
