While the upgrade of my 1st generation Toshiba HD-A1 is currently on hold. I am however keeping my options open and am still looking into a player to replace my HD-A1. I just saw the Onkyo DV-HD805 at Fry's Electronics and while it was hooked up using component video it still looked good. And the face plate looked alot nicer than the Toshiba HD-A35. However the Toshiba HD-A35 seems to have gone through a price drop from $499 to $299. The Onkyo to my knowledge sales for aprox. $799.
Who here has the Onkyo DV-HD805 and who has the Toshiba HD-A35?
Is there a clear cut difference between the two? And is the Onkyo worth the extra $500?

I have to admit the Onkyo DV-HD805 would look good sitting in the rack along with a Denon AVR-3808ci receiver and a Denon DVD-2500 BT Blu-ray Transport.
