if you can choose between a Onkyo for R10k and a Marantz in the same class for R10k, which one will you guys choose? mostly for movies, gaming and general HD PVR viewing...

Best to get a listen before deciding. If possible listen with your speakers.

Compare features, you will not hear any difference between them.

A&S wholesalers in Pta has a pioneer vsx-320 for R2199. Entry level but beats paying R3500-R4000 for your first avr. Didn't know this model existed, thought the range was 420/520/920.

Good point - somehow I think of Dion Wired as an online store and not a brick and mortar one. Thanks for all the help guys, I'll check with both and go from there!

i am thinking of getting the Yamaha RVX673 amp with Bowers & Wilkins MT 50 speakers. I can get both for just under R 20 000 (R 8000 for the amp and R 11 700 for the speakers). Is this a good choice of equipment or, for this sort of price, would something else be better?
