Dennon will be warmer sounding while onkyo will sound more tinny.
You can get a much better deal on the onkyo. I just got a 797 from oade bros. They gave me a deal that is amazing, they are a licenced onkyo dealer and did I say they gave me a deal.
Question is, does $200 saving between...
http://oade.com will sell you a 797 for less than $800. They are a licenced onkyo dealer so you keep the full warenty. I love em and tell everyone who is looking at the 797 to call em up.
Jim Oade is a bad ass
hate to tell ya bud, if you have ultimate tv you DONT HAVE TIVO SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd like to flame on now but dont have the time.

I dont know what the deal is out there but in CA you are in the dorms for one year and then you are in an apartment. I like my HT in the apartment. If you are gona spend the cash dont cut back just for one year of being cramped.

anamorphic is the same as "widescreen enhanced"
Immagine a regular 4:3 square tv. On letter box the dvd only puts out the standard widescreed with the black bars on top and bottom. On anamorphic the dvd can scale so you get what looks like a vertically streched image across the entire 4:3...
How do I bookmark an individual forum and still get my updated disscussion boxes on the left in the updated color?

K what is "Home Theater Spot" where do I learn more.
Found this site: http://www.onkyousa.com/web_dealers.cfm
Any one know how NIRAV CORPORATION (bestpriceaudio.com) is? They are licenced so that is good.
Looked round the web, unauthorized seems to be around $800. Could someone please...
I want one, what kind of price can I expect from online vendors? Who is authorized onkyo dealer & has great prices?
Oade? OneCall?
I called onecall on kenwood and they wont give a deal unless I find an authroized dealer w/ a deal. Same w/ onkyo?
------------------
--------------------...
check onkyo's website for info on it. Many comparisons have been made between it and the one that comes with the outlaw 1050.
I prefer kenwood remotes.

crutchfield has some interesting sony stuff, silver, but might present a nice contrast with the wood. It is hard to match wood on wood.
Also for this situation I'd sugest Bose. they won't notice a difference, and they are after all ... inlaws.

yes you can do that it'll work if you have line of sight. I talked with my landlady and she let us put ours outside our upstairs entrance. Basically we said: if those people can put a plant we can put a dish.

quote: Ryan: I vote for the Denon too. I've had 4 different models in the last few years and they peformed wonderfully.
4 in a few years! Yikes. If Dennon breaks that fast I'd go with Marantz!
How long should a reciever last?
