The JVC RX-D702B receiver is a little behind the curve right now. It is also discounted quite a bit up here where I live. Can you offer your comments or opinions on whether you see this as a good receiver? It lacks some of the newest audio decoders, but maybe I don't need them for the price?
We have a JVC 1080p rear projection set, (has HDMI). We have a Toshiba HD-A30 player, 1080p, (has HDMI). We have a Motorola DSR505 satellite receiver, (has DVI or component outputs). I expect to buy a Blu-ray player in the next year. I have a good pair of speakers for mains. I have a "worn pair" of speakers for sides. I can build two satellite rears out of stuff I have around here. Then I would be sub shopping or building.
An Onkyo 606 is $100 more than this JVC, up here. Ease and functionality are my main concerns. I am not afraid of delving into the menus for initial setup. After that, I would like all the speakers to work all of the time without changing any settings on anything we have, even if it is fake. Am I asking too much? :reading:
