Budget around RM2k. Bro, try goto e-mall at Jln Pudu, there're selling package Onkyo SR505 with Mordount Short Carnival 5.1 system for RM2,888, ask them to upgrade to SR605 for some extra.... p.s. they sell the SR505 alone at RM1,488....

QUOTE(arj @ Jan 3 2008, 05:31 PM) Just got back from Harvey Norman @ Pavilion. Was quoted RM2589 for the SR605, RM3299 for the SR705 and RM4xxx for the SR805/875. Can't remember the exact price. They also have the Yamaha RX-V1800 at RM41xx and the RX-V3800 at over RM5000  The receivers are connected to some decent speakers. Might bring over some CDs and DVDs during my next visit  Went to SS2 Legend and the surrounding area. They quoted 705 - RM4100 EX-V1700 at RM3600

If u're serious buyer i think the price can be lower little bit more. Try nego, mayb u can get lower than Ka3tr0 with same package.
