Denon AVR X3700 vs Marantz SR5015

I’m purchasing a new AV receiver and I’m looking at the Denon AVR X3700 and the Marantz SR5015. I’m getting the LG OLED 77” tv and i’ll be using all B&W speakers (2 DM 600 front, 2 M-1 rear, LCR3 center and ASW300 woofer.) I don’t need the 9 channels of the Denon so I’m looking at quality of picture, sound and build. I realize these units are relatively new so if anyone if out there using one of these, i’d like to hear your opinion. I'll only be using the receiver for watching TV. I won't be using it to listen to streamed music or other music sources.

Even if those units are new , It won’t take much time , that there will
be other receivers with newer audio formats ( Auro 3D v2 , DTS X pro )  , etc .
You may be  tempted to change for the new flaver of the month.
If it is your style, buy a brand that is easy to sell .

But why buying those receivers if you do not go the ´´ height speakers ´´ game : Dolby Atmos , DTS X , Auro 3D .
You pay for things you will not use.

If you only go the 5.1 speakers layout ,  think about  Denon AVR-S650H  or a  Yamaha RX-V385  etc .
