    Onkyo 606 compact replacement

    I have a Onkyo 606 and I need to change it for something smaller but don't want to downgrade the sound. I really I need something under 160mm tall. Anyone got a suggestion? And before you ask, it's a wife thing,.........*help*

    Onkyo TX-SR606 buzzing noise

    I have the same problem, it starts to buzz when I turn it on, and after about 10 minutes it stops. The buzzing is coming from the amp itself and not the speakers. I will check my serial number.

    Help me unsplit my mind... PDP-508XD or TH-46PZ85

    I have a 50" and sit 3.5m away, the screen is great for movies but a little big for normal TV viewing, I watch movies all the time so for me it's perfect but if you watch a lot of TV 46" or 42" may be better. (for me it's Pioneer )

    Onkyo 606 Issue

    It's a Pioneer PDP-508XD, and it has "power on" control of the AV via the HDMI control feature. It works a treat apart from this little niggle. The TV displays "Switching Audio Source On" (or something very like that), but then switches to the game channel.

    Onkyo 606 Issue

    Fair enough but I have control over the AV via the TV so when I turn on the TV the AV starts up and then strangely insists on defaulting to the game input! I guess the other work around would be to connect my Sky box to the game input. With all the fantastic features of this AV, I feel it's a...

    Onkyo 606 Issue

    When I turn on my 606 it defaults to the game input, I am only using sat/cab and dvd at the moment and I would like it to defualt to sat/cab when I turn it on. I can't seem to see anything in the manual (but I may be missing it), can anyone help?

    New System

    The room is not very big, 3.5m wide by 4.5m long, viewing distance will be 3.5m. The best price I have found for the 875 is around £695, this may stretch my budget a little past WBP. (Wife Breaking Point)
