futureshop and bb have a pioneer 9120 txh thats 7x110w, hdmi 1.3 and decodes all the new formats. its thx select 2 certified, which means itll be fine for any small/mid sized home theatre with a viewing distance of up to about 10 or 12 ft...

ive had one for a year now and am happy with it. it was $1199 when i bought it and last i saw them they were like $649...good bang for the buck...

i looked at the older version of that onkyo..the 605. it had lots of problems with popping sounds, and apparently some of them caught fire. there were a few threads about it over on avs.

a lot of itll depend on what speakers youre driving...id buy them both somewhere with a good return policy and return the one you dont like as much..

I use the STR-DG2100 Sony 7.1 receiver. Not something easily found as most stores deem to too expensive to carry. I didn't even find it at the sony store, but worth the trackdown if you find it.
