I replaced an older Yamaha (non HDMI/HD) receiver with this one. The Onkyo was easy to set up although it took a while to figure out how to set all the options I needed. Sounds great. My biggest complaint is with the manual and Onkyo support. Since I am new to HDMI devices I had alot of trouble in making all my components work since my old DVD player and new Onkyo iPod dock are not HDMI. Two emails from Onkyo support were even more vague than the manual so I had to spend a while in trial and error until I got it all working. Not fun when your TV and equipment fit tightly in a cabinet and you have to take everything out to plug, replug while trying to keep all the cables as neat as possible.
I was going to buy the SR607 since it was highly recommended from the electronIc store clerks. One of them even hugged the receiver while telling me how much he loved it!!. However, I didn't need 7:1 surround sound so settled on this one and it sounds great. Can't wait to get a Blu Ray player next.Get more detail about Onkyo TX-SR507 5.1-Channel A/V Surround Home Theater Receiver (Black).
