i'm looking into these receivers and i need advice:
price for new +shipping
1015: $400 120wx7
915: $305 110wx7
815: $255 100wx7
other than wattage which goes up by 10 watts per upgrade, (im pretty sure the 100w would suffice for me) do any of you pros know why i should should consider the 915 or 1015 over the 815? here are the listed specs: any differences to note? i payed 300 for an onkyo 6.1 that doesnt look like it compares to these. Is Pioneer for real, or too good to be true? also, does anybody know about their BASS management?> one more thing, what is tx vs k. in there lines?
