also i have no desire what so ever to use 3 d. i am very invested in an owner of a d2v stating to go with th marantz... please tell me what you like and do not like from the d2v...

thank you

Yes, my responses are taking up to a day. Wish they'd stop human filtering.

Other opinions?

I own an Anthem AVM 50v. As much as I like it, I'd go with the Marantz with the newer technology for $1,000 cheaper. The Marantz actually sounds very good and will be fine for HT use.

Have both Anthem and Marantz stereo units. Both good to very good. But for a thousand bucks less and the latests formats, the Marantz is the way too go.
