1909 is replaced by 1910. Some still have stock and 1910 is around RM2400. Not much diffrent for me unless u have many device to connect thru HDMI, 1910 got 4, 1909 only 2. If budget allow, go for 1910, dont worry about no S-video for astro. Just cancel and resubsribe to get a new decoder with component out.

465 is good if you enjoy concert. I love the DSP, and when I bitstream from my DVD player the DSP really give a great result. It matches the concert and your room enviroment. Can be tuned too. For movies, the Movie DSP is good especially Sci-Fi. I love the effect. It really made movies sound much better than straight. But i guess it depends on individual. I could see my BluRay concert collection will be more than movies as I love concerts. 465 budget level suite my musically incline Wharfedale Diamond 9.1. 9.cs, dfs . Getting my Pana BDP60 soon.

the let down is, the rear only the stereo speaker got binding post. the surround and center use clip. sucks. I bi-wire all my front. Well, many said this avr is light and it may represent its capability. I can't remember where I read a review by a Pro. He was sceptical about the performance due to the weight. But after audition... wow he was surprise.....

Then go for 1910... or if you like punchy for movies, Onkyo 607,

just my 2 cents though. These model is almost 1k extra then 465....

btw. u have not tell us why u sold your Pioneer VSX 819? it should help the sifu here to understand what you need.
