I was in the same position over the Summer and after doing my homework I went with the Denon 4310CI. I chose the Denon, for the following reasons:

1. Build quality and reputation.
2. Runs significantly cooler than the Onkyo.
3. The reports I read about the new processor were very positive.
4. This unit was the first on the market to run the new Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
5. I've owned Denon in the past and have been very satisfied.
The integra 9.9 does NOT have an amplifier section, so if you want to buy it..you will have to spend more money after you get it. (for getting an external amp)
I feel the that both do an admirable job for movies. I would give the edge to the Onkyo for music.
I have the 4810 and wouldn't trade it for an Integra. First there's the DSX and PLII although not at the same time in the 4310

Build quality and reputation.

Past positive experience with Denon 4306

Runs relivitively cool
