Default Is there any reason why I should get an Onkyo 606/805 Over a Sony 720 Receiver??

The 606/805 are around $450/600.

The Sony 720 is $250 - significantly cheaper. Since my PS3 will be my main videogame/blu-ray player and it does all the internal decoding, can someone logically convince me that I should go with a different receiver? I don't need all the other superfluous stuff.

Secondly, the 720 is rated at 105 Watts / channel @ 1% THD

The 606 is 90 Watts / Channel @ .08% THD

and the 805 is 130 Watts / Channel @ .05% THD


Will I notice a significant difference in sound quality by going with the 720 instead of the Onkyo models? I'd really prefer to spend the extra money on better speakers.
