Has anybody compared the Marantz SR5005 against the Emotiva UMC-1? I see where Emotiva has the UMC-1 on sale for the same price as the SR5005 and was wondering about the upside of either of these and whether or not anybody has given them both a close look. I would be using this for 5.1 TV viewing only, with an occasional movie thrown in when I don't want to fire up the projector. For music I will listen through the den system which I'm looking to upgrade with a better DAC. I've never heard any of the Emotiva gear, as you can see from my signature I've been a fan of Outlaw's gear. Missing from the signature are the 950 and M200s that I passed along to a friend when he helped me do some work around the house. He wouldn't take money, but he did appreciate the sound quality improvement that the 950/M200 combo gave him for 2-channel listening over his previous receiver.

Again, thanks for any advice you can give.
