I understand that this new model is coming out soon, and will have Prologic IIx. Are there any other details out there on this new model? Power, features, release date, etc?

Just Spoke With Onkyo

The rep told me that the new 602 will have:

- 7.1
- DPL IIx
- Microphone Setup facility
- 3 Comp video in, 1 out
- 12 volt trigger for zone 2

She wasn't certain about any increase in power. Price will be $500.

The new 702 will have THX and a backlit remote.

Both should be available in August!

The Onkyo TX-SR602 will have 7 x 110 Watts, up from 6 x 85 for the 601.

September availability.

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.

I did my math wrong...it will be 85 watts per channel. 595 watts total, divided by 7 powered outputs, equals 85 watts per channel. This makes sense...if they bumped it up too much, they'd start encroaching on the 700 and 800 series.
