Receiver Conundrum £500 budget

[admin_exported]

So my Sony DG820 was faulty and unfixable and I got a refund as there were no stock so I'm now without a receiver.

It seems some of the better receivers are in short supply, my dilemma is this:

Sony STR- DA2400 ES about £425

Yamaha DSP-AX863SE about £499 if I can find one.

Onkyo TX-SR607 about £470

Or wait for new Yamaha / Sony models which I guess could be up to a couple of months.

At the moment I'm leaning towards the Onkyo but all advice and food for thought welcome 🙂

test 'em all. Sony would be my choice.

Which speakers do you have?

I think you'd be lucky to find and 863 fullstop now, let alone one at £499 to be honest. If the 863 has enough HDMI's for you, hunt one down, otherwise, wait for the new stuff which will have more inputs. The Onkyo's do tend to be the best for money, and have a fair amount of welly behind them too.
