home theater zones

Which is better Yamaha receiver, the RX-V2600 or RX-V1700?
I'm building a home theater system and need the ability of different areas. Both receivers are on sale now for about $ 740. Both are 7.1 channel 130 watts per channel. Any guidance is appreciated.
Just remember Yamaha and the like are a product of low or mid-fi-fi best. These guys do not know how to make high-end things. If you are looking for cheap, Mr. Money ... you will find than in any of these quack-boxes ... just remember to plug your ears.
