Trying to decide between the Onkyo SR800 and HK AVR525. The set up will be used 75/25 music/movie respectively, with Mirage speakers all-around. I will only be using it in 5.1 for now. Listen to a lot of music in 2 ch stereo. Any advice?
A few months ago I answered this question more or less in an another thread.
I was still within my return period after buying an HK AVR525 (which I supremely love), and figured I'd share my research obsession with another poster who was considering, at the time, the choice that you now have before you.
Do a search for my name "h1pst3r" or "AVR525" or HK...you get it. Take a read through and then fire off any questions you have.
