Best AV Receiver for £300?

[admin_exported]

Can anyone advise on the best AV Receiver to buy for around £300? One's that I have been looking at are:

SONY STRDA1200ES

ONKYO TXSR505E

DENON AVR1907



Any tips or thoughts would be great. I'm looking to play DVD's & xbox 360, and connect cd player/ipod. Which is the best future proof one? The ONKYO gets good reviews in What Hifi August but the Sony gets great reviews from last October.

Was looking to link either Tannoy EFX or Kef 1005 surround speakers to the system.

i have DENON AVR1907,i use all digital equipment,pc ect.so many inputs even i only a fraction,completly furture proof,uncertified THX,7.1 surround,modes & settings for surround pc gaming,proper binding posts,not spring clips,smooth rich sound (reminds me of my old arcam alpha 8) looks & sounds like a £600 unit - a bit big though.
Handles 7 speaker bi-wiring no probs.
