Posted June 9, 200817 yr what do y'all think about this reciever? yay or nay for a first step in my h/t world?wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
June 9, 200817 yr Circuit City has the AVR-688 for sale, $299, this week. Personally, I'm a fan of Onkyo. The Onkyo TXSR506 has the same features as the Denon AVR688, and it's the same price as the Denon, $299, however it's much simpler to use. If you have any questions about the Onkyo receivers just let me know -- I've spent some time researching them Edited June 9, 200817 yr by Big E
June 9, 200817 yr Author well, it's a trade deal over at the chithole....but no response yet.so maybe this thread for nothing, lolwheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
June 14, 200817 yr I don't see anything wrong with denon. I bought an avr-587 a few months ago at CC when they were they were on clearance. It's ok, but the only other receiver I have used is a Denon avr-3803 which is in another league. The 587 fails in comparison to the 3803 in features, SQ, ease of use... pretty much in every category. It honestly doesn't come close and I don't see how a receiver can get any worse. Frankly I'm very disappointed in it. Maybe it's because I was expecting more or it's just that bad. I was expecting similar sound but less features and less power. I still think denon is a good brand though. Pretty much on the same level as onkyo, yamaha, pioneer elite.
June 14, 200817 yr Author well, i never heard anything back, so...i guess i'll stick with the jvc we currently have, for now anyway.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
June 14, 200817 yr I can't seem to find any Info on it. Is it a 5.1 or similar set up?I am personally a fan of the newer Harman Kardon stuff but I don't know much about home theatre. Edited June 14, 200817 yr by todd.brust
