But I remember the AVM60 was riddled with bugs when it first launched.. so if you want a more problem free unit, the AV8805 has been here for longer.
That said the AVM60 is very stable now and if they used the AVM60 platform as a basis for the 70, it might be stable too.
I moved from a Marantz AV8802A to a loan AVM60 and the sound quality is noticeably better. Much more precise channel steering and detail as sound moves from one speaker to the next. Both without room correction enabled.

Thanks.....the AVM 70 is in my budget. I'll give it a look!
