Onkyo 606 is it like the 875 without thx ultra 2?

Planing to get this 606? does it have the same video processing power as the 875 and how comes its so much cheaper, what is it missing?

 

[Clare Newsome]

It doesn't have the same video processing, or power, of the 875 - one reason for the price difference.

 

[Andrew Everard]

Nor the same automatic set-up - Audyssey 2EQ rather than the 875's more accurate MultEQ - or bridged amplification option. The mutliroom capability is much simpler, and there are no preouts apart from a sub feed.

The 875 also has lots more processing power, more ins and outs, and a much more flexible remote control handset.

 

[Clare Newsome]

But apart from that, it's the same, right?

 

[Andrew Everard]

Identical!
