interesting John, i don't think i realized that. I've looked a little closer at the Onkyo's recently as i was looking at upgrading some of the features of my "pro" (since i currently run an older model Yamaha). It is quite frustrating trying to find a decently priced model from any of the major manufacturers that has component-vid upconversion, a phono input AND preouts. Most receivers seem to have 1/3 or 2/3 unless you are willing to spend around $1K or more. Spending that much certainly puts the Onkyo in the running and the separate crossovers would be a nice feature to have. My apologies for the hijack.
