Any of the tribe have experience with the Onkyo TX-SR703 or any other Onkyo receivers that they would care to share with the board?

I'm still looking at receivers that may serve as a pre/ pro and the 703, on paper, looks pretty good. It has the features that I want and isn't too expensive. I will probably get an external amp for the fronts, maybe the center too. I've convinced myself that I don't need DVI/ HDMI switching or video upscaling in my receiver pre/pro so this one may fill the bill.

What say the tribe?
