hey guys, im after a new av reciever. my current one is a sony str-de495. it is ok but i think its time for an upgrade.

been looking at the Yamaha RXV357RDS and the Yamaha DSPAX757SE to go with a pair of mission M73i's. i am planing on getting a center and a couple of surrounds at a later date

main use would be for film, music and gaming

about £200 difference between them but ive been told that the 757 is amazing quality for the price (about £345).

what do you guys think? ive listened to them both and to me they both sound fairly similar which leads me to believe that im only paying the extra for all the extra features the 757 has??

though theres a matter of future proofing, i want the av reciever to last me as i dont plan on buying another one for a good few years yet (5+ years at least) so wanna get it right now :)

do i go for the cheaper one and save a couple of hundred quid or go for the expensive one and get something that MAY last me longer though the cheaper one may do as well??

help please :)

cheers
