Though interest maybe low for this particualr unit from Emotiva, their line of pre/pros should interest more then a few of you. Their units typically perform very well under test and cost […]

Home Theater Magazine has the mid-priced Onkyo TX-SR605 up for review today. The good news is that they are packing HDMI 1.3a into receivers below a thousand dollars. I was somewhat worried that this may not happen for a couple of years. Home Theater Mag Other features of the TX-SR605 include an input that can be used for one of […]

Ahh to be the editor of a high profile gadget blog! You sure get to play with a lot of cool toys, including Sony’s newest HD Radio :). EngadgetHD We like: Gorgeous, mid-century modern design.

When the heck did receivers start becoming BIGGER than computers?  I can’t get over the size of this Sony receiver.  I admit it’s got impressive specs, but at this rate, we’re just going to need a company to develop a multi-input card for the PC so that we can just hook up all of our A/V equipment directly and forego […]

Topped with glass and featuring […]

Holy cow they've got some ugly devices, but hey, at least the price is lower than normal. I guess these things are normally $200? So $119 is a steal! So, if HD Radio is important to you, you have this option, but I'd probably wait for something a *little* better. But who am I to judge, better than nothing, eh?! […]
