This is a great unit
Probably more suited to a more medium space
I suggest checking out the owner's forum on AVS. Many of them have owned this AVR since its introduction in 2021
There are lot of tips and tricks that can be learned from those that have actually owned the unit for years
There is a high satisfaction from what I have read
I was certainly satisfied with my unit when I owned it

Technology has advanced & people just don't find the work worth it for the quality performance benefits.
The PAC & Dirac deal was genius business one for both!
Sony tried to follow with their own RC but didn't fair well, only for Sony diehards.
Yamaha has to do something soon, wouldn't be a bad idea if they jumped in with everyone else.
I have a feeling their trademark DSPs are an issue.
That's just an educated guess on my part.
Denon/Marantz just making Dirac an option & not included was pretty smart also.
For people with good setups there really is no reason to go separates any longer because of D/M!

Unless you need 11 channels, the RZ30 is probably the better buy imo.
It cost less,newer, independent sub outs making DLBC a more optimal option & unlikely to hear any big difference if at all.

Just have to be patient & in no hurry, it is very hit n miss.
I would also add someone building a setup.
Far too often people buy the AVR then the speakers, should be the other way around ime.
An inexpensive used unit will do until you get all the speakers.
Denon/Marantz sales are off 25-27% year over year ( based on reporting) and Masimo just fire saled that group off to Harman International( Samsung)
I am going to guess that the majority of their volume is in the made in Vietnam by a third party AVR's...who also assembles other brands under the same roof as well
Pioneer home audio is done, unless someone picks up the license. Even then there is no telling what will happen to future branded products. The old Pioneer plasma Tv's are a great example of this
I would be interested to know how PAC is doing with sales
Clearly, if we have 4 year old mid line Asian branded AVR's, for sale, it looks like companies are conserving resources.
That used to never happen. in low to mid tier Asian branded AVR's. It was new products every year

Which typically means you cant buy something as soon as it hits the market
Additionally..brands that typically have an update every year, which all the low and mid tier Asians brands used to do, are going to fall quickly in resale
I recently sold an Onkyo RZ50 , that I owned for 18 months , and basically got the money back that I originally paid for it. In fact could have gotten more, but I just wanted a quick sale.
To your point though on the used market
There are some gems that in many cases offer more amp/power supply capability than the new models
Unfortunately , you may lose the latest RC and HDMI capability though
