Marantz SR6006 or Yamaha A810 from UK?

[kratos]

Hey Guys,

Need your help here.
I would be carrying an AVR from UK,I have shortlisted below ones:

Marantz SR6006 for 600 ~ 50K INR
Yamaha RX A810 for similar price

My requirements are

40% Music (Bollywood music & Gazals from Flac)
40% Games(PS3)
20% Movies

What do you suggest ? Living room size is 20x15ft
Since I'm buying online & traveling next weekend,its not possible for me to audition these.
I have shortlisted these purely from the reviews posted.So which amongst these do you recommend?
Also do you think the price advantage offsets the warranty which I would loose?

Cheers

Guys help please :sad:

With some other purchases coming up,Almost finalized on Yamaha RX-V671 which is 200 cheaper.
Planning to plonk the savings on good speakers which I would buy from Pune.

What do you say?
I have read the reviews on the forum specially the Yamaha *61 & *67 owners thread hence zeroed on V671.
Still any last minute thoughts/comparisons?

Is it possible to audition? I have not auditioned extensively, but I fell in love with Nad, so much that I purchased one when I found a deal, even when I thought I will not buy an AVR and save everything for my speakers+stereo amp.
This AVR has transformed my cheapo speakers to a very high level of performance, both for music and movie. Though I will still upgrade the speakers.
They may not have all the features, but they have the SQ.
