This beats the by a few $$, but it’s from a bonafide reseller so you’re sure to get the full factory warranty. Use your email promo code or just enter ’2288′ to get the extra $100 off in the cart.
I settled on it over nearby competitors (like the Costco Yamaha deal and various Denons) because it has Chromecast and Amazon Prime Music and SONOS compatibility built-in, along with the usual other stuff (Tidal, Deezer, Pandora, Spotify, etc.). Plus I value having a front HDMI input for intermittent use (like with a laptop when necessary)
