Dynamic Power TX-SR805: 300 W (3 Ohm, Front), 250 W (4 Ohm, Front), 150 W (8 Ohm, Front)
THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) 0.05% (Power Rated)
Damping Factor 60 (Front, 1 kHz, 8 Ohm)
Rated Output Power - 7 ch 180 W at 6 ohms, 1 kHz, 1 ch driven (IEC),
Speaker Impedance 4 Ohm - 16Ohm,
Power Consumption European: 870 Watts,
Weight European: 23.3 kg
Based purely on audio quality of the receiver itself, the TX-SR805 will easily compete with any offering at or near its price.
With lossless decoding and Audyssey engaged, nothing comparably priced that does not include HD audio or Audyssey will even come close. Onkyo has clearly upped the ante with the TX-SR805.
