I have tested pioneer 821 with Yamaha 671 side by side with mission towers.
Pioneer could play wma via USB.

Now Pioneer sounds more powerful than Yamaha 671.671 sounded thinner in vocals,but not pioneer 820.
With music pioneer was sounding fuller & true to recordings.Yamaha sounded flat & anemic when played with pure direct.

I will vote for pioneer(compared to 821)
