Whhheeee!!! The AGs A'Diva/micro are satellites...but boy the sound space is excellent. Go down and audition it if u have not done so. (Artcoustics). Try out the Stradas too. The AG pricing is surprising affordable...lol....go try first.... Living Room : probably wall mount for front/centre and ceiling for rear. May go for all ceiling MBR : Probably all ceiling KEF3005 are satellites too but they are quite big. So if I get those, probably would be table-top for front and centre and wall mount for rear. I loved my previous setup, but the buyer is quite insistent on me leaving that setup when I sold the price....so its goodbye .... IMHO, if u are more music than HT, go for Denon....I more into HT, thus selecting Onkyo. Been a Yamaha advocate for long time but decided to switch to Onkyo this time round......but Onkyo 608 only have Audyssey 2EQ whereas Denon 1910 has MultiEQ, so may be looking at 708, just hope it is available soon..

El Nino_Al Nito 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 Congrats for upgrade ... any used sound system you want to sell/give away? ;) haha..thanks i start from a clean slate...no used systems to let go dude... i am also getting the same HTS as you, heard the 608 is arriving earliest end of this mth. Did you get it from Alan or Clarence? wow, cool! same same then. but i was served by Dennis. He the man! i like the pro series coz its available in white wanted to upz to pro center2000 but only got black. Considered AVR 2310 but Dennis advised is more suited for floorstanders. So for now just will stick with AVR1910 until i auditioned the Onkyo 608 or 708 as wcseow mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See whether u can get KEC to play with both AVRs with the same set of speakers and with the same movie track. Then u pick the one u like better....... Not easy to compare AVRs, cause there are different features/DSPs........power output wise and inputs 608 is comparable with 2310/3310. But Audyssey, 608 is not near 1910.....lol.........
