EXACTLY. Thats the way Toyama does it accdg to the sales people. Sometimes they already have the new models in stock but do not release it until their old inventory is sold out.
yeah. thats why kawawa yung ibang unsuspecting consumers...........
I just noticed something:Onkyo 705 is THX select 2 certified @ $799Onkyo 805 is already THX ULTRA 2 certified @ $999.Thats gotta be one of the cheapest THX ultra 2 certified receiver out there!WOW!
my eyes light up with the 805 because it has 7.1 pre-outs, but Im pretty shocked by the weight....its has a shipping weight of 66lbs!!!!! thats around 16k in shipping alone!! nyikes....
66 lbs!!!Thats gotta be one kick @$$ power supply with a weight like that! Must be why its already THX ULTRA 2.TEMPTING!!!
according to thishttp://www.us.onkyo.com/model.cfm?m=TX-SR805&p=s&class=Receiverits only 50.9 pounds...thats about 14888.25 pesos for shipping....plus about 40500 for the unit itself..55k for the whole thing.. great unit.. heavy on the budget though... sniffanyone know if JAC gives discounts for extra heavy amount stuff.. ?
66 lbs!!!Thats gotta be one kick @$$ power supply with a weight like that! Must be why its already THX ULTRA 2.Ganda pa itsura, always wanted a black receiver.TEMPTING!!!
ship it to a relativedoor-to-door is just ~$80, unlimited weight, as long as it fits a 20"x20"x20" box. a 24" is around ~$130.just wait 2months to arrive
I'd like your comments guys...do you want to wait and see the prices and stock for the 605 when it coems to home theater works of nemsisor do we proceed and order from states na?
Theater Work's prices are reasonable. & Jeff is easy to talk to. If I were to get a 705 baka sa TW na ako.
Better to handcarry the receiver, coz siguradong over baggage ka kung i-check-in mo. I'm interested in the 805 too...
Oh my gulay ! ! ! Baka malaglag ang braso mo diyan pag kapag hand carry mo ! hehehehe ! Besides, hindi kakasya yan sa overhead compartment
Suggestion kung kakasya lang is: tanggalin mo sa box then ilagay sa luggage bag then paligiran ng damit. That is kung gusto mong makatipid: kasi mahal kung babayaran mo yung excess baggage.
I am not being disrespectful but why don't you wait for the new NAD receivers coming out by October? They also have the Audyssey XT. But the advantage is REAL power for all 7 channels plus a generous power headroom of 3 dB. They will also have 4 HDMI inputs plus all of the surround processing you will ever NEED. No Dolby true HD and DTS MA. We don't need the latter processing anyway as HD-dvd as well as the BD 1.1 standard are authored in ADVANCE MODE meaning that the decompression will be done inside the PLAYER and not the receiver. The only use of the on-board surround sound capability is with the existing Blu-ray disc that are authored in BASIC mode.
which model are you refering sir?last i checked NAD recievers are of the scale on my budget, i was originally just gonna get a cheap 605.. it just happen to be out of stock at time of purchase so i got the 705.my 705 is at johnny air already.. just waiting for them ship it to manila.
