Its nothing against the 605, as I had my own father buy a 605...but as far as audio quality, I think the 805 stands above.

You're right Crackin'! The OP has moved beyond the 605, it's a nice receiver - really but it's not the 805 or anything else in that class. If he's going entry high-end on the speakers - get the power to drive them. If the Onkyo came with pre-outs I would definately recommend it (to higher-end people), but it doesn't so there's no way of adding power or using it as a pre/pro.

Listen to them, research them and find out what fits your needs. Happy Hunting!

P.S. I forgot about the Onkyo 705 for $504.00

Is best buy selling denon avr-1909?
