Does the "600" Series Onkyos --Specifically the '605 -- Do TRUE HDMI Passthrough?

You have a 605 also, yes? Do you run your video through it?

BTW...nice pics of the HT! I just checked them out; how did you do the wiring for the surrounds with no wiring? Did you have the wires run in-wall? Wish I could that in my current apartment, but we just didn't drill holes in the walls for custom install...instead, my surrounds (and mains) are on Sanus stands...

I wasn't even aware of the need to turn Immediate Display to 'off' so I obviously don't have all the facts. Thanks for the tip about that though. I'll go turn it off right now.

Hey, no problem! That's what this hobby should be about, helping each other out for this passion we have for HT and cinematic audio and video! Unfortunately, most of these forums spiral out of control with flaming and "know it all" bashing of someone's thread within minutes of a thread going up...

You are welcome, and thank you for YOUR continued attempts at the 605 video passthrough resolution...yeah, from everything I have learned, that IMMEDIATE DISPLAY function somehow "softens" video going through the receiver(s) -- it's been recommended to leave this OFF.
