I never read about Onkyo receivers on this board, so, do you know something I don't?
My system includes the RP-5's, RC-3 and RS-3. I am looking at getting the Onkyo 898. The specs include 110 watts x 7 channels into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.08% THD, THX Select, THX Surround EX, DTS-ES, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic II decoding.
At $1500 on Crutchfield, this receiver sounds like a steal. Others have commented that this receiver is overkill for the speakers, but, is there such a thing as too good of a receiver. I think not. I do feel that this is better than the Denons and Yamahas at this price level, but, I'm fairly new to HT.
What do you all think? My quest is for THX.
