Hi all,
Up until the October issue of What Hi-Fi i was fairly set on getting the above A/V Reciever and DVD Player. However the latest issue has thrown up some questions.
1. In the review of the Toshiba HD-EX1 it states that the DVD playback is "about the equal of Denon's highly rated DVD-2930 player", if this is the case and given that you can pick up the tosh for around £450 would this be a better option? I would therefore get the quality playback of DVD's at the same standard as the Denon, plus the extra advantage of entering into the world of HD DVD playback, all outputing would be to a Sony 40W2000 LCD TV.
2. I am concerned about the comments raised in the review of the Onkyo 875 about the amount of heat the machine generates (this was also mention in another recent review). Is the heat generated after many hours of use or after a short period of time? For me the unit would need to go into an enclosed cabinet with about 4-5" of space around the sides, back and top. (The front would be exposed)
Any help / comments would be appreciated.
