Hi, I'd desperately like some help replacing my budget onkyo tx sr 308.
1st thing, I'm quite a noob.
I'd like one with a twin output to feed my TV and new Projector.
Like most people, I'd like a bargain and the Sony str-dn1040 sure looks good at £299 from richer sounds, as does the onkyo tx nr626, but I'm now having serious doubts on them both due to many threads about the Sony having problems and the onkyo burning out hdmi boards.
My speakers aren't that funky, 5.1 tannoys that appealed to my wife's visual taste.
I'm wondering if either of the above would be adequate or whether to save a little longer and go for the Yamaha rxv775 or the Denon Avr-x3000. Price is slightly an option.
Sorry for rambling, can anyone offer advice on whether there would be a good second hand one I could consider or whether they forecast any other ones coming down in price in the short term.
Thanks in advance, Tommy
