Won't say much as the price difference is greater than the features difference...
Highlights...
HDMI is now the only video output. There is no support for 720P/1080i over component video(neither AVR lists having upscaling).
747 includes DPL IIz, while curiously the 646 does not.
Out of the box support for Atmos, DTS:X, HDCP 2.2(2 or 3 inputs) and Onkyo calls it HDMI 2.0a for 18g.
Width...is gone.
Both support coax/Toslink, USB and net for Zone 2. At last....AIRPLAY...finally.
Onkyo going all in on separate video processing and audio processing power supplies. That will matter more on up models with preouts.
747 adds THX cert. 4ohm certified. Has 3 HDMI outputs(but when you look at the pic, I only see 2). Zone 3 analog outputs.
(Obviously as of today, since they just went up, things will get corrected. Onkyo tech blurb says the 747 has 3 HDMI out and has Zone 3 with "whole home party mode". The tech blurb and picture don't match each other)
