Product Price:$594.99
Sales Tax, Fees & Surcharges:$44.62
Best Buy OB/refurb has been a big hit n miss and DLBC isn't as beneficial on the RZ50 with its parallel/mono sub outs.
The RZ30 is much newer & very capable.
The power difference will likely yield very little if at all any sonic difference ime.

I kept it almost 2 years and sold it ( in 1 day) for what I paid for it
Nice unit ...I really enjoyed my ownership
if I hadnt changed my speaker situation I would probably still own it today
Nice...I bought the Onkyo RZ50 about 2.5 years ago for like $585 at the Best Buy outlet

The sale also afforded me to buy and try a few AVR's at firesale prices
I settled on a Marantz Cinema 30( to replace the Onkyo RZ50) for like 65% off MSRP along with a grouping of Kef R meta speakers at similar discounts
I would add, unless you need the extra two channels, IF you even found the RZ50 for the $595, the RZ30 brand new for the extra $105 would probably still be a better buy ime.

My setup is an Onkyo RZ50, Sonance VX66 in-wall L/R, Sonance VP66 LCR center, and four Klipsch CDT-5800-C II speakers for Atmos. For the prices I paid, it's hard to complain. Open box has been very good to me so far. After i tested them all, now moving to install each one of them. So happy with the price and as you are saying, at the time i decided to move on, because of whatever speaker situation comes, i just sell it at the price i got them.

It can be hit or miss( on value)...but sometimes they will just blow things out at 65-70% off MSRP
If you dont mind doing the work you can find some incredible deals
I assume due to their sheer volume they have buy back options from the manufacturer so Best Buy might not be taking the financial hit it looks like on these blowouts
Years ago the speakers that are the core of my main system....Bowers and Wilkins CM series...I bought about $12K worth if speakers for $4K
Last year I bought a Marantz Cinema 30 and ten various Kef R meta speakers for 65% off MSRP
All the items come with a full manufacturer warranty from your date of purchase
If you ever sell them later because you are moving on/upgrading to something else, they are worth no less than those where people paid a much higher price
Ditto with televisions
Been there done that many times
Best Buy/Magnolia open box can be a gold mine
