Guys,

Just go to Mega Pavilion Harvey Norman and you can compare both receiver hooked up to same speaker. To me, budget wise and more money for the buck, i go for 705 which i bought it for 3300.

At first i wanted to have denon 3808CI because of the wireless ethernet streaming capability, but then i learned my PS3 can stream any mp3 too, so that lower it down, beside the denon and yamaha cost RM 1000 more than my current 705.

For those having PS3, you will love the "BLUE"..blue light when it goes on, pair with Onkyo blue light when on...and in my case, my Philips 7432 also power on light also blue...hehehehe...so many BLUES, really look nice...

To those of you who in doubt, go test your ear at the above said mall, to me, i cant differentiate the Yamaha av and Onkyo av quality, both sound almost the same. Plus, you cant go wrong with a THX certified a/v receiver 705.

I hooked up the new BD player..forgot which model already. Go and ask the staff to hook it up. The best thing is, Onkyo place their own technical guy over there instead of salesman to explain each single thing. You can ask them all the Q you want. He will demonstrate the function and stuff.

Music source...hmm..i cant say much as i only play mp3..not sacd...hooked up on ps3...am not an audiophile but all high end pitch can be drive crazily clear and crisp...i have a bright speaker from FIDEK if you see my pics....i know its not the high end speaker...but good enough for me...the imaging was GOOD !! Listen to Miles Davis CD...awesome and clear sound...you have to go listen yourself...my ear and yours not the same ler...

To Accs-Centre
One U ? Didnt see any Onkyo there, probably i wrong...but for safe bet..go mega pavilion..heck they got Onkyo and Yamaha allready hooked up in Demo Room...bring your own cd for your listening pleasure...
