My father and brother informed me that my brother accidently dropped the box that I had packed my onkyo DTX-7 reciever while they were bringing it into the hotel one night. I asked them why they didn't leave it where we had it as I told them to as the alarm would have protected it and they just stared at me. My dad is a phycasist that can calibrate multi-million dollar x-ray and ct scanning machines, and my brother gradutaed in archatecture but for some reason my 2 way alarm with a super easy to read 2-way display was just WAAAY over their heads. I showed them the stupid lock display on the alarm that showed on the keychain that it was amred, and that the two super bright bat signal led were another clue but I guess they managed to set that thing off across 3 states, at on point eve while driving .............
When I asked them to define drop and describe the damage they said it was nothing and should be fine but I can tell they are lying to me so that I will not worry about it although the descibed it skidding across the parking lot........
So, longstory short I have buddy that can get me discounts on yamaha and onkyo recievers. Being that I lost my job, my house and my life is falling apart I can't afford much but was wondering which you would get. I liked my onkyo but didn't love it enough to have to have enother.
I will be needing a new reciever
I just had to replace my failing H/K AVR500. The AVR500 was a factory refurb and lasted me 10 years or so. I decided to go with H/K again, found they sell their refurbs on eBay factory direct now, I bought a AVR247 on the bay for $147 + like $20 shipping. 7.1 channel, HDMI, A/V processing, its a few years old, but an awesome deal. They also have quite a few 245's and 345's which are newer, but cost a couple hundred bucks more...
