    CNET Review

    July 15, 2008

    The Good: Four HDMI inputs; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; upconverts analog signals to 1080i over HDMI output; Sirius-ready; excellent automatic speaker calibration; switches as many as six high-definition video sources; improved remote.

    The Bad: Poor video processing limits utility of HDMI upconversion for analog sources; sounds better on movies than with music; no phono input.

    The Bottom Line: The Onkyo TX-SR606 offers tons of functionality for the price, but subpar video processing and improved competition means it's less of a standout receiver than last year's version.

    Review Summary: What is all new for 2008 is 1080i upscaling, two more HDMI sockets, and Dynamic EQ tech. Connectability is very good for the price point; the four HDMI inputs give you the same flexibility that you would enjoy on a higher-end receiver. They can all ...
