It was one of their show room demos which they are clearing out both for the new models and a redesign of their showroom. The deal is $1,200 sold as new with full warranty. If it requires warranty work they will pick it up and handle it while loaning me a receiver until it gets back. They will also calibrate my picture.
I will look into the Onkyo but I’m a little leery of getting another factory referb like my current Denon since it only came with a 90 day warranty, not that it hasn’t worked fine (except perhaps for Audyssey).
Thanks,
Dean
