Hi Guys


While out receiver shopping, I found a mint floor model, box, remote, warranty for $999 or maybe less. Is this beast any good or should I stay looking at the HK 8000, Sony 4es, ad Elite 45? I need to jump on this quick if it's half the deal it looks to be! Onkyo was never on my list, so I don't have any feedback, especially from you guys. The search function is down on the forum, so I can't check the archives.


thx

Hi,

I now have a Denon5800/03 as my main system (and love it) only because my brother made me an offer i couln't refuse.


It's predecessor is an Onkyo 575 which has moved to another room. even though it has 100w less than the Denon it's still a great reciever, hasn't given me 1 problem and i would recommend Onkyo to anyone.


I can't comment on the price, i just feel that they make great products.

I went back to buy it and they said "Sorry, we mis-quoted you" I even have a piece of paper with the quote


Oh well, back to the pioneer/sony/hk

Unfortunately, none of those have bass management for the multi-channel inputs. Just something to keep in mind if DVD-A or SACD is important to you.
