Which One Would You Guys Keep? Onyko - Yahama

[Gwmcroy316]

So, wanted to get some opinions. If you guys had the choice would you keep a 7.1 Onyko HT-R530 receiver or the 5.1 Yahama RX-V373 receiver? For a bit of reference, at the moment I dont have a ton of living room space for the 7.1 to be set up optimally, which is why I was considering the switch.

No opinions?

How many speakers are you running, 5 or 7? I'd lean toward the Yamaha if there's no 7 and no room for expansion.

What models we are talking about? Does the Yamaha have all features you need? If it does, then I would lean for Yamaha.

What do you mean "switch"? Both AVRs look nice. If you already have the Onkyo hooked up, and are considering a switch just because you don't use the rear surrounds, I wouldn't worry about it. Not worth the trouble to me.
