go to edesignaudio.com, and dont be fooled by the prices, these speakers are for real, especially the 6t6 towers....and by the way, they have a package builder where you can build any size package you want, and if you use this feature, its 15 percent off, oh and free shipping for almost everything

You mean the speaker outputs, correct? I have the 605 which is last year's model as part of whatever the HTiB was back then. I tried some Monster dual-plugs and they did not fit. I ended up getting a whole bunch of single plugs from Monoprice for a fantastic price and taking the Monster ones back for a refund. The 7100 looks awesome. I wish I could upgrade :). The 605 only has two HDMI inputs and doesn't integrate with my Panasonic plasma like this one would. Oh well. Something is going to have to go component/optical so I can have all the switching via my receiver.

I'm not entirely informed when it comes to surround sound systems, but the front two speakers are usually dedicated to dialogue and most people who I've talked to say that they are the most important. That's why I'm looking more are the 7300. You can always update the speakers and use the same receiver later if you get the 6300 though. I think I'll wait a while longer, but I'll probably get the 7300. Thanks again for contacting Onkyo for us! :)

Excuse me, Are you sure you bought this item the Onkyo TX-SR707 for $499? I am looking for one, and it is in almost $700.

Dear Adam,Thanks for your inquiry. There are a variety of options for you in the Polk, JBL, Infinity, Pioneer and Sony speaker line that will fall into your budget and give you fine performance. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Oh, one more thing--make sure your Sansui receiver has a phono input!Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Never tried with Onkyo. Only with Logitech, Bose, Sony and Phillips and I had good results in all of them.

I actually have an onkyo receiver, though not that model. The number on the front - bottom right is: R-805X. Maybe someone at onkyo can tell you if both models can use the same antenna. Hope it helps.

I don't have the Onkyo 7030 but I ever owned an old Onkyo which just died after > 10 years. Personally I think Onkyo is better in details but I choose Yamaha because the convenience of USB port.

Both sound great. In my opinion the HK sounds slightly better. The power output difference is not what it seams (90w vs 75w), I'd wager if properly tested they are equal in power or the HK actually has a little more. HK is very conservative in their watt ratings and push higher amps than most. The HK seams to match well with the warm sound I like and my Paradigm speakers (older models w/ silk tweeters). The HK will be easier to set up if you don't have much experience. The Denon has more surround processing modes that you may or may not like. Sound is very subjective and depends on your room acoustics, your speakers, and most importantly your preferences. If you are using a Blu ray player that bitstreams the new uncompressed surround formats (Dolby Digital HD, DTS Master Audio), then they will both decode them for you. If you use a PS3 remember that it can't bitstream these HD audio formats, but must decode them internally and send them via LPCM. If you need a good speaker set check out the Energy Take Five Classics sold on Amazon for less than $600 last I checked. You are going to be happy with either unit. Good luck! ps. The included iPod dock with the HK is a really nice free addition if you have an iPod. If I had chosen the Denon, I would have bought their model dock eventually.

Steven L, if you read my review of this player, you should know that the other player to which I referred was the Onkyo 7030. I set them up and did an A:B comparison. With most discs, the differences were barely perceptible. On a few, the Yamaha sounded just a tiny bit "muddy" when compared to the Onkyo. My wife was unable to discern any differences. Both are excellent players. But if it helps your decision making process about getting one of these to add to your "stack," be aware that I am returning the Yamaha and getting a 2nd Onkyo.

I am using D7050 with KEF LS50 "bookshelf" type speakers. This is a near-field setup in a small space. For that, it works mostly well. But I don't think D7050 would be enough for larger space.

I've read great reviews about Onkyo as a brand for receivers. Although i have a samsung 46" that i'm simply loving right now. the Samsung HT-BD1250 sucked so bad that i'm reluctant to trust Samsung for audio gear. It sure looks good though the new system.The 5300 Onkyo looks more upgrade friendly. But the SR608 is overkill for me so i'm not even going to bother drooling over it.

I would buy longer higher quality cable and check with Best Buy or Fry's about what speakers might be compatible. You also may need a more expensive system.
