Got this receiver for 750 from Adorama recently. Missed the 700 eBay deal, but with cashback it's essentially the same so no issues. This one is a monster. I have it paired with a pair of DT D15s (also got from Adorama) and an SVS sub and it's damn good. I previously was using a Denon s760h and the difference is pretty high. Also compared it back to back with Denon x3800h and I can't find any difference and hence the 3800 (more expensive) is going back. I am not an audio expert, simply stating what I like the most for my setup.

Your BBB argument is flawed. First of all it's nonsense (a lot of not kosher stuff behind those ratings), and if you do believe in it, then Electronics Expo is below Adorama as Electronics Expo is not even a BBB accredited vendor which going by the same logic means they don't pass the BBB standards [bbb.org].

None of the audio Adorama sells is gray goods.

Adorama as a retailer is fine and so are their deals being posted by staff. Who cares who posts the deal? A good deal is a good deal. If Electronics Expo ran as many promotions and they were a decent vendor [resellerratings.com], you'd see them on the front page more often.

The BuyDig deal came with a two year warranty.
Good point. So to summarize:

$700 - 2 year warranty from a 3rd party vendor (Warranty companies can be good or bad, but realistically they are in business to deny claims)

$749 - 3 year warranty from Onkyo...

Quote from fourml8r :
You asked who cares who posts the deal? Well that all depends on if you are an SD sheep or not. There is significant bias on this site towards their vendors since their advertising dollars and affiliate cash back is the driving force, not if a deal is really good or not.
Would have been nice when quoting me you finished what I wrote. I specifically wrote in regards to being a good deal who cares who posts it. I'm certainly no sheep and have been around long enough to identify a good deal when I see it. If it's a good deal I could care less if an editor, you or any other member posted it... If it's not a good deal I won't contemplate buying it. And if SD didn't make money we wouldn't have a place to bicker back and forth Smilie

That's $799 - 3 Year Warranty from Onkyo.

Yes, I actually would take that $100 savings and chance it with the two year warranty.

Looks to be a typo on their website. The RZ series comes with a 3 year warranty from Onkyo. Non-RZ series have 2 year warranty from Onkyo.

I mean, that's even better. I think all of their products have manufacturer's warranty.

Did you clarify with the vendor first or just post this comment without checking?

FYI - This is a brand new unit. Confirmed by the vendor. You're welcome.

Yes never understood that silly argument.
It's not like people come in here and buy or not strictly based on who posted the deal!

I like to believe that everyone is intelligent enough to know what is a good deal for them or not!

My bad! I was looking for why warranty might be 2 years.

Did you check with them to see if the warranty info was a typo?
