The Integra is 9 channels vs 7, so that itself is a nice upgrade and I will be taking advantage of that with some Atmos height speakers. The Integra is 120 watts per channel and the RZ is 130-Odd how it went down on the former.
The Integra has Dirac Live which can be beneficial along with IMAX Enhanced with its dynamic range of theatrical sound mixes. It's also an 8K receiver so it's nice for future proofing. Everything is gold plated which is nice touch as well.
I still prefer the look of the RZ overall and its two Optical ports. A bit bummed it only came with one optical port. The Onkyo's volume knob felt very premium and weighted to me. The Integra one is quite meh.
Still pleased with the outcome. If I waited for those parts to come in I probably would have been a year or more without my surround setup. This option got me back up and running within 3 months and it cost me nothing.
