I am thinking of getting this unit. I have an Onkyo 601 currently. I know it is personal preference but would this be a good move? I am looking at the preouts the Marantz offers but I think my Onkyo has more features. The price is $319 for the refurb. Guess I am just looking for comments on the 5500.

    Marantz receivers seem to always be one step behind in terms of features.. that's been my experience anyways

    For less than $400, you should shop around. There may be a better deal out there. Check out the refurbed Pioneer Elite VSX-52TX at www.unitedonlineshopping.com.
