The AX3 is a bit more detailed while the 430 has a fuller sound. The Pioneer has better build quality, but the 430 has more features. I like the AX3, but maybe the 430 is overall a better choice.

If you were more concerned with movies and features I would look at the Yamaha RX-v2400. Better remote and power, as well as all the bells and whistles.
