I bought a Yamaha 1400 two weeks ago and I have no regrets. IMHO, Yamaha edges denon on this model both music and movies. Audition it both. Let your ears decide.
I've owned Denon and Yamaha, and I am more of a music listener. I am still using my Yamaha RX-V1000 and love it, i've just always preferred the Yamaha for music.
I'm bias b/c I have RXV1400 as pre/pro and Marantz 5-channel amp to drive it. HT is awesome and 2-channel music is wonderful while 7-channel stereo mode to host party throughout the house is excellent. For comparison in this price range.
