Onkyo 705 vs 605 vs 606?

Question

Looking for entry level DD HD/DTS HD, 7.1, 1.3 HDMI. Leaning torwards 605 due to cost (<$300).

As I see it:

606 - extra HDMI (don't care for them)

- cheaper

605 - cheapest

- only thing diff from 606 is the 2 HDMI

705-THX, but no upconversion of signal to 1080i

- more expensive

So is the THX worth the extra $$? Is the 606's ability to upconvert to 1080i a big deal (attaching a PS3 and DISH 722 HD receiver)?

Answer 1

Why you pay for extra if you don&#039;t need other features. You only want some new HD sound so you should take 605. My Denon receiver ( no THX ) sound great and more expensive than Onkyo 705. Don&#039;t waste your money.
