panasonic sa-xr45 vs marantz sr-5400


I am trying to make a decision on which of these two receivers to buy-the panasonic sa-xr 45 (soon to be xr70) or the marantz sr-5400 or marantz sr-6300-would appreciate any comments on the pros and cons of each of these receivers-thanks

I sold my XR-45 because I wanted something else for a try. I picked up a Marantz 7400 and realized I should have kept the XR-45. The XR45 outperforms the Marantz in every way. (I never turned up the volume to the max on either of them)

Now I have sold the Marantz after 3 weeks of trying to live with it, and it looks as if the XR-70 will replace it.
