P Pixie Audiophyte Oct 21, 2005 2 0 0 Oct 21, 2005 #1 Hi, I'm pretty new to this, and I've read so much in the last few days and learnt a lot in that time. I'm considering getting an Onkyo H-S787C system for a smallish room in my house. Does anyone have any other recommendations or advice to offer me? Thanks in advance

I'm not sure there is anything better at 600 bucks. There is better for a few hundred more. The speakers are the known deficiency in the Onkyo system, but they are better than those found in any other HTIB system at that price point that I am aware of. If I were to make any possible alternative recommendations: http://usa.denon.com/ProductDetails/393.asp But, I have no knowledge of it being one bit better than the Onkyo. Heck - the Onkyo HT-S770 (6.1 no DVD player) can be had for under $300.00 shipped to your door. THAT is a bargain for a system at that price. I would love to see a Sub $800 HTIB shootout. Think I'll go make a suggestion for that. Reactions: malvado78
