Both are similarly priced at Crutchfield. Any recommendations which to
choose. On an avg how does Denon compare with Onkyo/HK. I am considering
these as they are the most easily available (CC, 6Ave etc)

Thanks

The HK's are far and away the best. But you will want to make sure that the
models you are interested in don't exhibit any high frequency problems.
They take 100 hours of burn-in to sound their best.

With respect, I'd personally stay away from HK. Made-in-China junk, looks
like the same vendor as RCA home theater stuff. Yick.

The latest HK's are anything but junk! They also appear to be free of
the high frequency problems that the past models exhibited.

Its your ears and your money.

Haven't seen the latest, but I'd lean toward the Denon.

Try fixing one sometime. I'm not kidding when I say they're very similar
inside to the RCA home theater stuff. Disposable junk. The poor quality
isn't just aesthetic - the DSP boards die like flies due to poor physical
quality of the soldering and feedthrough connections.
