@Jefny I just went from my old Outlaw 990 to the 976 and I LOVE it!!! I have an Oppo UDP 203 that I run direct to my PJ and I run the audio direct through the 976 Auxilary. All my other components including my Tivo Bolt, HD-DVD player (Yeah I still have one.), and a PS4. So far it works perfectly. I don't know how good your Marrantz is but I'm very happy with my 976.
