I have a DN1080 on it’s way, a little over $400 open box excellent from Best Buy. Does anyone have experience with both receivers? This seems like a good deal.

I wouldn't trust them.
Several years back when I bought an open-box SSD and tried to return it, they denied it because the SN on the SSD didn't match the box. So, I doubt they're thorough.

Never had any reliability issue with any of the Denons I've owned. All have been rock solid.
Yamaha definitely has the better app though.

I believe it should. The feature you are looking for is e- arc. Enhanced audio return. You could always send a separate audio cable from your device to the receiver

Very similar to TSR-7810 but a year newer. A870 also comes with 3 year mfrs warranty. don't think that's worth $113 though, especially with the generous Costco return policy.
