thanks a lot bro....look like duit mau terbang lagi....

i went for a "test drive" today.
Onkyo 626 & Yamaha 675.

when playing movie (transformer), onkyo seem performed better than Yamaha 675. Onkyo seem like more power and punchy compare to 675. the bass part performed better.

when playing music, yamaha seem performed better. Produce even more clearer sound & music.

hmm... a bit curious. how come yamaha 675 got quite numbers of good reviews...? or the yamaha setting still not correct??

Need some valuable inputs here....

Do check the Denon X2000 . The Denon X2000 ( Audyssey MultEQ XT) are more advanced than the Onkyo 626(Audyssey MultEQ). It have 8 time higher resolution in the satelite .You will need that in your room . Price should within your budget

Personally I never like onkyo. Yamaha is a more all rounder.

I second this. Yamaha is a better all rounder. And Hoss you are also correct. Sometimes it does that a little twigging and running it for Hifi stuff to sing. Additionally, Onkyo has a track record for HDMI handshake issues, which I'm experiencing now...

Can the hdmi issue solve with the software update?

I hv lower down my budget AVR to RM2K ~ RM2.5K already. Seem only Yamaha v675, onkyo 626/616 match my budgets.

I believe the newer Onkyo has that software upgrade option. My Onkyo is an older model, so i don't have that option, therefore, would not be able to tell you if that option is effective or not...

If it was up to me, I would increase my budget slightly and go for the Yamaha RX-A1020. More wattage, better speaker driving (is that the correct term, sifus)...

Yeah... I read too much Onkyo HDMI issue... Make me worry and usually skip Onkyo for this reason.

Denon is also a good option. Go scout around, I am pretty sure there is something that suits your budget

chanhin, what is HDMI handshake mean? HDMI loosen?

The signal need to go through the component for connect. That is what is call handshake

Dunno.. As not using Onkyo... Read too many problems on Onkyo HDMI... Got handshake issue, firmware issue, or hardware spoilt... cannot display... need to change transistor etc... And it seems on-going for many years across many models. I also wonder what is the real problems that cannot be solved.

Ic...

But really.. Can't deny that onkyo really good for movie. Yamaha seem lack of bass during watching BR movie. I dunno whether can be fine tuning on this.

Yes. It can. I've used a Yamaha amp since I first started Home Theater. No one had said to me, You setup is nice but the bass...

Using the audessy should help to bring out the proper sound from the Onkyo AVR

Hahaha I'm the first who said that? Bcos that day I compared side by side ma... Hahahah..

It might be due to the setting. In shop. I believ they do not do re-calibration for every speaker/amp setup.... no time..

Some shop like Desa, thier knowledge on sub setup is poor and wrong... But cannot blame them as well...
