I don't know what the DV-C36 uses for de-interlacing and Pioneer has a track record of using proprietary de-interlacing chipsets. At least with the Denon, you know you're getting great de-interlacing.

Try out the Denon and if you're curious about the Pioneer return the Denon and get the Pioneer and then return it if you prefer the Denon.

This UN-informed recommendation is based on the assertion that the Denon will have better video quality based on the Faroudja de-interlacing. If we're talking "overall" performance, I would definitely recommend the Pioneer since Pioneer has a GREAT track record of being reliable DVD players. I believe the Denon is a NEWER player than the Pioneer DV-C36 and it supports MP3 playback where the Pioneer doesn't.

Faroudja de-interlacing, newer machine, MP3 playback all give the Denon an edge over the Pioneer and I would say check out the Denon.

Good luck!

Peace...
