I'm seeing delivery for $387 for excellent condition.
This is pretty good price for those that are after Dirac Live & need 9 channels.

I box a refurb unit in "excellent" condition. A year or so again and I hate it. It takes forever to switch sources. To the point the no signal sign on the tv comes on and then the source comes up.

Between that and the delay when switching between apps, youtube channels using an apple tv without earc, it's awful. I think the daughter board is crapping out. Just like ony Onkyo RZ 720 7.1 receiver and pioneer and Onkyo are the same product. This time I'm using my warranty even if I have to pay $100 bucks to ship it

I've bought both Amazon basics and monoprice. Either both suck or it's quality control. I went through a lot of 18 Gbps cables on my old receiver too.

Ok..I have both those brand cables and no issues

I have a Onkyo RZ50 in a secondary room...which I assume has about the same internals

Apple TV 4K, Roku Ultra both running to the TV..LG E7..using ARC and it works fine
Even have an LG 4K player running directly to the RZ50 ( then to the LGE7)and it works fine as well

The rz 50 is closer to the vsx 505. It's the next step up from the every level onkyo that comes with Dirac. Is it the 7100 maybe?

There was 1 in stock for good condition at my store, went to go checkout and it went unavailable, guess someone snatched it right before me.

One in "fair" condition by me for $320. I would typically steer clear of "fair". Is it that good a deal to risk it?
