It won't have 110 watts...I've found several sites that note that the total power of this receiver will be 595...doing the math, that equals 100 watts per channel. Onkyo wouldn't bump up the power rating by 25 watts in one production year...they've only bumped up the 500 series by 25 watts in over 3 production years. I also doubt this system will be THX certified...I could be wrong, but I doubt that at 500.00, it will be worth it to Onkyo to pay all the extra money to get it certified by THX.
