Do you shoot videos with a camera or camcorder?

If you are anything like me, you want all the advantages of a killer high-end sound system to complement your HDTV, but your wallet doesn't really support the $4000 price tag a home theater receiver fitting that description might cost. While I won't pretend the internals of the Onkyo TX-SR502 are on par with its flagship counterparts; it's an awesome sounding receiver far superior to what the more affordable price tag might suggest. 6.1 surround sound handles both Dolby Digital ES and DTS-ES, which means outstanding sound from all sides, including the rear. Pro Logic IIx will convert any 5.1 or stereo signal to simulate 6.1 surround. 75 watts per channel is more than enough power to drive speakers in most price points beyond the threshold of human hearing tolerance. Multi-channel analog input provides support for DVD-Audio or SACD and two sets of video component inputs allow you to pass a switchable signal to the TV, so you only need one component video output. Unless you are a true audio snob, the TX-SR502 will deliver all the audio processing you need for several years to come. It's even available in either black or silver finish to match your lifestyle.
