Nope, this is not the one Best Buy had on sale. They had the Onkyo TX-RZ50. This one did show up on Amazon Prime for $1499, and all five available were sold within a few minutes. They held steady at $1999 on Amazon for two weeks before rising back to $2800.

No that was the Pioneer equivalent LX805.
This has gotten down to $1799.

FYI they have OB for $1749, it gets the same manufacturer warranty.

When they did this with the RZ30, some stated they received a brand new one.

I posted this but actually got it price matched from B&H Photo & Video yesterday because I've had good experiences with them in the past.

Too many deals on receivers now. Guess they will drop down in price. At this price point it is not the best. If you can hold on then there will be better pricing. Is this better than the Denon x6800h?

Don't think so. The denon has quad subwoofer outputs and will support DIRAC ART in the future (which I believe requires 4 subs)

It depends on features you need/want.

This does not offer/capable of 13 channel processing, side wides, individual preamp mode, 6 height/atmos processing, 4 independent sub outs, access to A1EVO, if you prefer Dirac no access to the newest RC ART.
The 6800 does!

4 is not required but highly recommended.
It works for any sub, just like Bass Control, which is a requirement for ART when using subs.

It basically takes Bass Control/Correction to another level, among other things.
It basically handles/corrects/manages all bass below 150hz!
