can someone tell me what the real differances are between the two receivers other then just power? I have 5 new Klipsch slx speakers & Klipsch 12" sub. I need a new reciever and really can't see any differance in the two, in fact, the 985s comes with the microphone. the 985s is hard to find spec's on in the denon website. you need to go to the "jump to" and jump to "specialty audio products" then press products and then "home theater series a/v recievers". the 985s is fairly new. I would appreciate any comments - thanks
