Top performer in price range!

by ngsm13

Pros: HDMI 1.3 switching, upconversion, upscaling, 7channels of amplification, simple configuration
Cons: Component input to the receiver that is output via the HDMI upconvert output to the TV will be 720p.

The Onkyo TX-SR605 is almost unbeatable for the price. It is a solid performer, and offers many features over comparably priced units. I am currently using it to power my bi-amped 5.1 system, and am highly satisfied for the price I paid for it. The HDMI switching and upconversion is great, and the fact that it is 1.3 makes it nice for future plans.

I am driving all channels @4ohms, and have never had any problems from it yet. It does get hot, as do most receivers when driven hard.

Their are better quality items out, at multiple times the price, but this is a great all around receiver for everyday use.
