Honestly I didn’t know pioneer even made decent avrs anymore. For me it’s been x3700h as the cheapest option, Denon x8500/Arcam AVR as the medium, and AV40/SDP-58 as the high end. I just don’t know how much money I want to dump in. I’m half tempted to get the Onkyo since it’s so cheap, and go prepro later, but I’d feel like I’m wasting money. So I may wait for the new AV40 version with HDMI 2.1, then grab another 7000x and call it a day. I’m pretty set on getting front wides so I have to go higher upThere are tiers in the brands themselves as well. The RZ50 is NOT lower tier, or low end, EVEN when compared to other brands. I'm curious. Do you think Pioneer ELITE is lower tier?
Personally I'm going to sell my DENON X3700H, with the better DACs, in the classifieds as soon as my RZ50 comes in, and I consider that an upgrade.
