As you said £299 @ RS but join their VIP Club, for free and get a tenner off then add 6 year warranty for £30odd.
Extra tenner for double warranty.
Bought mine a few weeks ago from RS for £320, after VIP discount. Went in today to extend the warranty and noticed it in the window for 300. The assistant promptly applied the new price and sorted warranty for £10 :smile: Excellent service!
The Receiver is awsome by the way. Running 5.1.2 Atmos.
Edit: Oh, and if you don't claim on the warranty you can get the cost refunded after 6 years!
Well worth the effort of going to store... If you can :wink:

Sounds like you're enjoying it just as much as I have been!

I was looking at this receiver to replace my old Pioneer receiver but as the wife is going mad about trailing cables I am considering the new generation of Dolby Atmos soundbars, like the Samsung richersounds.com/pro…-xu
I know it is much more expensive (although you have to consider the cost of speakers when buying AV receiver) but it is much cleaner set up. As Sony, Yamaha and Onkyo have released their Atmos soundbars I am hoping that prices will drop by christmas

In your use case I can see why something like that would be interesting. Can't you just run thinner speaker cable? It's not that bad!

Looks great but unfortunately for it's dual HDMI out rather than having separate channels / a matrix Anyone with any recommendations for an AV with separate HDMI outs at all? And is Dolby Atmos worth it? Thanks a lot!

Atmos sounds amazing with the right setup, but if you don't put all the speakers in and have a good room layout it might be a little excessive.

Opening post
There is a possibility of Peter Tyson price-matching the RS deal via their form entitled "Seen a better offer?"
See Babbler's instore RS deal here
I have this AVR from a previous Richersounds deal and am very pleased with it - packs a real punch.
