Updated Denon DVD-1940CI

Tapped as "love it"
New pro/con: Pure audio mode which shuts down front panel display and video circuitry for absolute clean music listening.
New pro/con: Even with the 2MB buffer, still has a slight pause on DVD-Video disc layer change.
New pro/con: No distance compensation or DSD bitstream output for SACD.
New pro/con: Good value especially if you can get it for about $100 on clearance.

New pro/con: Does not blend on screen menu over video sources through the HDMI output. (Switches from video source to menu instead)
New pro/con: Great video processing of analog standard definition sources to 1080P output (HDMI out only of course)
New pro/con: Audyssey RoomAuto EQ gives a graphical interface of what frequency bands it adjusts to achieve "corrected sound". (Not all competing receivers do this)
New pro/con: Only 2 HDMI inputs (newer model AVR-989 does offer 4)
