...I was having a look around a few HIFI dealers this morning and checking out the latest A/V kit - I mentioned to a salesman I was just about convinced about buying the new Onkyo 875 - he didn't disagree (apparently his shop are about to restock Onkyo Receivers after a few years of not doing so) ....but he pointed to a massive discontinued Denon (can't remember the actual model) on sale at £999 (reduced from £2.600) which led me to consider ......assuming I can live without the latest HD audio frills of the Onkyo ...would the big Denon give me "more bangs for my buck"? ..of course the salesman was of the opinion that the old Denon would "walk all over that particular Onkyo" ..yeah I know ....he would say that!
I guess that many shops may be cutting prices dramatically on older large high powered A/V Receivers (the new Onkyo range seems to have rattled a lot of cages in A/V retail!) I have to admit I would be tempted by a heavily discounted big "old" Denon/Yamaha ...I just wondered what anyone else thought?
