I've had an ONKYO AVR for about 5 years now, and it's done a good job, but not it's gone "tango uniform". I need a replacement, and I don't want to spend 2 months researching everything in the world.
I'd *like* to have a an AVR that handles 5 video inputs (my Onkyo has 4), but it seem that as soon as you go to 5, you're in the "Arm and a Leg" price range. I paid $700 for this Onkyo five years ago, and it handles 4 video inputs. I'd think you get something with a few more features for the same price, but that doesn't match with my two days of research.
Other than a few DirecTv recievers (one's a Tivo), I've not really bought any AV gear in five years, so I'm out of touch with what's good and what's "gotta have". I do plan on adding a Large, Wide screen "TV" and DVD in 3 to 6 months, and I welcome comments on what I'm going to want in an AVR when I add those.
I do have the option of repairing my Onkyo (estimated $200), but I figure that's it's about time...
Thanks much.
