Not bad actually. But compare it to $360 USD from a very reputable online dealer here. Includes tax and shipping. That's why the Onkyo is so popular down in these parts.

I'm not trying to argue with you, Shazam, but the point is that it would still be cheaper for GoinAllTheWay to buy it from the American site even after paying all the extra fees. (Though shipping could take awhile)

BTW, Denon AVR-789 @ $600 > Onkyo TX-SR606 @ $530. IMO.


EDIT: I realize they're currently out of stock @ $360, but you can reserve your item at that price for when the next shipment arrives.

Oh, just putting the price up, in case anyone's interested.

I like Denons (I used to own a Denon AVR-3300), but the remotes for their low-mid stuff are wretched.

People actually use the included remotes? Man, those logitech universal remotes are dynamite.

My Pioneer 1014's remote is very, very useful.

A bit off topic, but Gizmodo just posted a quick preview for Panasonic's new 7.1 HTIB with a Blueray-Live compliant receiver pumping out 1250W. The rear speakers are wireless. Details (and price) are lacking, however.

Wireless sucks, 1250W from a HTiB is complete bullsht, and it will be unbelievably expensive/overpriced. Don't buy.
