2007 Onkyo AVR (TX-NR905, TX-SR875,805,705,605,575,505) Anticipation Thread

I was reading up on the newly announced 575 and 505 by Onkyo Usa and decided to see if any others were availible/comeing soon. My results exceeded my expectations on what's going to be out this year. I saw listing on Amazon with MSRPs (As opposed to the discounted street prices they'll post sometimes (ex. the HD-A20 was listed as $599 MSRP with no discount since just after CES))

I happened across a german site that had compiled a full list of the 2007 series with detailed features.

It looks like ALL the 2007 Line models are HDMI 1.3a!! (The 505 and 575 which are up on the Onkyo USA website already are Video Pass through only) 605 and up all have Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio Decode!!!! The top of the line Being the NR905>SR875>SR805>SR705>SR605>SR575>SR505. There's just a bit of info I don't have but I'm sure that will filter out soon.

Here's the Official Press Releases by Onkyo for the 605: http://www.gspr.com/onkyo/txsr605.html
As well as the Press release for the 705, 805, 875, 905:

Lol, Me too...me too.
Seem like the 605 is a sweet low dollar bang for the buck.

Eeep I didn't have the site up as I was writing I'll fix.
Thanks for the input.

I forgot to add that the 905 is the only Toroidal Transformer for this new series...I'm adding it now.

The Pdf has Pics of all the Recievers (except the 605 which I assume is the same in appearence to the 705) as well as additional info I didn't post. If there's info in the PDF that you feel is important to add to the details above speak up and I'll add it.

That was my bad I was doing a good deal of Copy/Paste and forgot to update the 805/875/905. The Select2 it seems allows 50MHz (of which the 705 is the only one of) and the Ultra2 is 100MHz. Sorry for the error it's fixed now.

Hmm Says "Uses TI Architecture (PCM1796) for Excellent Dynamic Performance and improved tolerance to clock jitter."

I'll add that

Nice, Hmmm they don't mention it does THD and dts-HDMA. But this does tell me the watts out though which I'll add.

On the Pdf it should have the Pictures on each listing. Best thing to do is to Save as and look through it that way.
The Amazon links got nerfed I'm fixing it now.
EDIT: Some how the / ref = pd_bbs_ in the link is being replaced by ******** when I save the post...Hmmm I Guess I'll just kill the individual links.

As for the Pics there's not really "great" pics in there but there is at least a front view of all the recievers (Except for the 605 mysteriously). there is a look inside far down in the PDF of the Toroidal and the Push-pull.
