Hi all sifus, Sorry for opening a new thread for this, as the pinned amplifier recommendation thread is quite messy with other info. As i just installed Astro Beyond and also due to more and more hardware that i have to connect to amplifier, can you guys recommend me a entry level amplifier with HDMI connection? My budget is btw 2-3k. I dont have any special requirement, just need to be able to support 5.1 speaker and with at least 3 HDMI inputs. Below is from my research. Please help to comment. 1. Onkyo TX-SR507 - RM1800 2. Onkyo TX-SR507 - RM2800 3. Denon AVR1910 - RM2800 thanks so much in advance. |

QUOTE(peter32 @ Jan 20 2010, 08:51 PM) I suggest you look around for used Amp. Their technology changes so fast that its not worth getting a new unit. Besides, used Amp with good spec cost almost the same as new under spec unit. thank you for ur advice bro. i intend to do so but i'm in penang and there's only 3 specialist shop for hi-fi whereby i have check and they do not have 2nd amp unfortunately Save your money in speakers instead, which will last longer technology wise. My 2 cents.

Since you are buying a new equipment, just go for the lastest tech. thanks alot bro for the recommendation. will chk it out the marantz one.The Onkyo TX-SR507 doesn't get very good reviews from pro so if you are a person who go by reviews then you might want to pass on this one. Check out Marantz SR6004 or the older 6003. Added on January 21, 2010, 10:03 pm QUOTE(Intrigue @ Jan 20 2010, 10:18 PM) Or maybe can check out the Pioneer 1019. Quite nice review! My future AVR. hahaha thx. i checked the pioneer website hopefully it's within my budget. US selling for USD500This post has been edited by shakiraa: Jan 21 2010, 10:03 PM |
