Integra processors good?

Looking to update my 16yr old Denon AVR-3000. I stopped by a local audio store & they suggested the Integra DHC-9.8 which is last years model & almost $1,000 less then the newer DHC-9.9 ($2300ish).

I know nothing about the company or their products so I though I would ask here. The store stated they are the best sounding processor for under $5,000 & are totally hand built!

He would let last years go for $1300, is that worth doing? Is there anything else I should consider?

thanks for any input/help!

Sure, they make a good processor. I would say it's probably either the top or next to the top of the line in it's price range.

On a personal opinion note, though. Here is my favorite at the moment, the Marantz AV8003. I feel it sounds better than the Integra's.
