300 quid for a new receiver

cant fault the onkyo stuff got a 507 and a 607 love both to bits ;)


the above is £20 cheaper at richer too :)
 
So this Onkyo, does it actually support 9.1, or do you sacrifice the back speakers to use the higher front ones?

Apart from that it looks good. Seems pretty future proof even if I will not use some of the technology it supports.
 
Ok, just popped down to RS to check this amp out. It's pretty good for the money. Sounds very lively.

It supports 7.1, but the new Dolby Pro Logic IIz allows you to relocate the rear speakers to a position above the two main front speakers. Not too impressed with the demo tbh and various reviews I have checked out seem to suggest it's not worth moving from standard 7.1.

Considering it's price point, I'm struggling to find anything that may be a match. May well buy this tomorrow.
 
Well I bought the TXSR508 and have set it up.

The improvement over my old amplifier is immense. Now I just have to programme it into my Harmony remote and it's all good to go.

Thanks for the tips :)
