: : Well folks I haven't looked at this forum in about 7 months [exactly the time I "finally" received the "747"]. Getting ready to purchase an Onkyo DVD player, I called Onkyo for some literature [on their second generation player]. Whoever sent the info, sent me a "sheet" on the "new" Tx ds-656. Immediate hostility!!!!!!! The shelf life of my receiver lasted 7 months;all the features that I had searched for[equal power & 5.1 inputs]were now available & cheaper!!!!!! I "complained" to onkyo,they blamed the retailer,he said his "hands were tied". There's a happy ending to this long story: after scrolling this forum tonight, I'm happy with what I got!!!, I think??? I can add an amplifier for equal power on the rear speakers [if I need it!!] & I don't think DTS is going to survive. My only problems are MLP & the volume display from the remote "jitters". It's good to read excellent material again. THANKS MUCHLY.:Bob, :I had the 747 but sold it sometime ago. I experienced some problem with the voloume itself gittering when using the remote. The display also was not very stable. However, it happened after a few months use and not when the unit was new. My advise to you is to switch off the supply and manually rotate the volume knob, full range, several times. You will need to do this with some pace. The above exercise helped my unit hope it helps you as well.
