Thanks for reply...

I will use for Movie ..home theather...but sometimes...i also wanna for Music
I heard ONKYO Amp is more to Home Theater and Marantz is more to music....right?

Both Amp is famaous ....but how about the speaker => Jamo or Rogers....good speaker or not?

For movies and PS3 only.... which is normally during the weekend.
That's why I just stick with the budget Onkyo and Jamo rather than the flagship models 875 or 905 or even Intergra.

Considering that they going to release the xx6 models less then a year after they released the xx5 series, I think I've made the right decision.

widget, so u also bluray kaki?

wat u set wen watching bluray on ur onky? pure audio? direct or mpcm?
u think u can hear a lot of difference btwn dolby, trueHD and PCM?

I would opt for Jamo S606 as I had auditioned that before with Onkyo SR605. I liked the combination and together with the Samsung BD1400 the sound is amazing. I tested it in Sunway Pyramid Senq. Price around RM4300 for that combination (amp + speaker).

As I'm watching bluray on PS3, I set the Onkyo to PCM.
When watching DVD on the Oppo 980, I normally set to either DD or DTS.

Still no chance to watch bluray in trueHD unless future PS3 firmware can send the native signal to the Onkyo for Onkyo's onboard decoding.
Currently, have to let PS3 decode the truHD.

so how much roughly to expect if i sell 605 as 2nd hand since now so many ppl interested hehe

Since it will be replaced by new model very soon, how about RM700?

How much you willing to sell? I can give RM800....keeee

i am not really selling it just surveying . besides no harm keeping a 2nd amp in the house.

Many opportunists here .. LOL

synco, for tat price, i rather keep in thetoilet to hear music during pangsai

widget, yes, i set to multi PCM as well
but as i said, do you hear any significant improvent btwn , ltes say, dolby digital track and PCM track?

wah...rx, u go korek your ear wax lar....
I think not the Jamo problem but your ear wax too thick liao...

btw, last night watch I am Legend....the TrueHD seem very quiet....

i think i need to go see ear loktor liao

quiet means wat? so true and real, becos only will smith alone in the world?

The different is there, but not so much maybe due to the size of the Jamo satellites.
Between the DD and PCM track, the PCM track sounds better, with more details and quieter background.
Maybe if I change the speakers I can hear more improvement.

But considering the 605 is the budget Onkyo, I think I'll make do with the Jamo for the time being.
At least, it looks cute with it piano-gloss finish

wat abt dolby and treuHD? for me i prefer pcm over legacy dolby as well
butcan u hear tat much details?
but true hd and dolby, i relly cant hear much difference, its softer most ofthe time

so must get floorstandings to feel thedifference?

What are you waiting? upgrade lah, bro

Haha!
Good one bro

Hear that rx330?
Time for u to upgrade to floorstander

haha true RX
thats y i dont really bother much
going to keep the amp as backup instead

Only Elite ppl have toilet the size of our bedroom. Our toilet is so tiny until no space to put AV rcvr and spkrs.
