It must be your writing talent - I thought I pretty much gave these

You pretty much did but I missed that post as I rushed to the Onkyo site to check out the difference in dimensions, power consumptions etc., just to make sure there are signs to indicate the increase in weights are believable, not BS or typos.

Come on now, first of all I never said China, and I don't think they are that bad. Steel can in fact be used as heat sink though not as efficient as Al (performance to weight ratio) but brick, even they know better, right?
