Only $348 at Best Buy.
I too am considering a new receiver so that I can take advantage of the audio capabilities of Blu-ray. I assume you have your new receiver hooked up to a PS3 based on your sig. I've been considering the Onkyo 605 because it decodes the new HD audio formats, but if this Sony would also work it is something I'll consider using with my PS3. Since it doesn't look like the Sony decodes formats such as TrueHD, etc, (but does handle PCM), are there any limitations I'd have as compared to the Onkyo?
