Hi All,
Need help. Im really undecided which to get. Pls enlighten me on which is the better one.
I'm only new to this and dont want to spend to much as i will just be using once a week.
Im choosing between denon's 1610 or onkyos's 507.
Planning to use wharfdale 9.1 and 9cs, plus dynaquest dq 12 which is now branded as Konzert.
For surrounds i will be using old speakers for the meantime and buy whardale floorstanders and use the 9.1 for surrounds.
I will be using it mostly for movies, around 80%-20% or 90%-10% movies vs music.
Also considering after sales service. pls share your inputs on which will sound better and will have better features all in all.
Thanks in advance...
you have to set your priorities in trying to compare the two receivers you have mentioned. com paring them wihtout paramteres will be difficult, i.e HDMI inputs, outputs, upscaling, power, build quality, appearance, ease of use, remote controls among others. off course the part that matters most is the sound quality, which can only be determined by auditioning
if i will be the one to respond, being an Onkyo user, I will be biased to onkyo 507 although the lower model may not be able to provide you a very good audio SQ. I was bale to listen to a 1610 and I must say the audio SQ is really good.
