Marantz SR6003 is a good option.
But if you prefer Yamaha, than go for RX-V663 even 863,
Since the price so reasonable now. Don't wait for new model.
When the 665/765 available will expensive in the first stage, quality also...... decide yourself.

Actually it's not just because of more input terminal but build quality would be different. Higher price also.
I have no idea in KL, could be around RM2900+/-

No no no..., I strongly advise don't wait, buy RX-V663 now. (unless you consider other brand or range)
I can't tell you the reason, but just take my suggest, you wouldn't regret.

Yamaha RX-Vx65 series could be available in May 2009 +/-

Normally when there launching that time, price could be higher than will reduce slowly, so don't expect the selling price will cheaper than RX-Vx63 series.

I still strongly suggest buy RX-V663 now.

As the latest news, Yamaha HQ has sold out all the RX-V663 & 863 stock. And stop to bring in any more since going to wait for new x65 series.
If somebody still interested with that, must have to make move faster before retailer finish their stock.

I have a friend just sold his Yamaha RX-V1300 (used less than 2 year, like new) + 2 pc of AAD C205 + 1 pair AAD W-45 Surround Speaker + 1 Pioneer DV-373 DVD Player + Cables = RM2000
How do you think?

Yes, when my friend bought that time also in very cheap price (old stock set)
This model have in year end of 2002.
