I don't think you'll be able to find any ''proof'' that one is better than the other. I've never had any problems with spektrum equipment, plus there are BNF planes if that is something you're looking at. As you said there is a price difference, so much that trying the spektrum out isn't really much of a commitment, in fact only about $30-40 more than just a RX alone gets you the module as well, and then you're set!
Umm.... I think that the Spektrum module/AR7000 rx combo is only $20.00 more than buying just the rx....

$109.99-$79.99=$30.00, however I dont see the the ar7000 on horizon's site anymore.
My price comparison was for the new AR7010 since as noted, the AR7000 isn't available anymore....

I see no issue with that setup to get someone started as the DSM2 protocol is still viable and supported as well as the fact that the modules (with the exception of the 12X MV) do not support DSMX.
