You could get a new Onkyo SR600 for $500 even. It has DTS ES Discrete, and Dolby Digital EX (not THX) with 80 watts by 6. My close friend bought one a few months back, and it sounds pretty good. Never heard the Outlaw though, but the Outlaw does not have DTS ES Discrete (at least).
Recommendation for REALLY inexpensive receiver
Hi, I need something to get started with, but am on an extremely limited budget. If you had to find a surround sound processor, and keep the price under $500, what would you recommend? I noticed a Denon AVR-2802 sold used in Audiogon's classifieds for $260- including shipping, which seems like a heck of a deal. Any help would be appreciated.
