Weighing in at £800 and £700 respectively, the 'NR807 and 'SR707 both feature THX Select2 Plus certification, six HDMI inputs, 1080p upscaling and Audyssey DSX and Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoding.
The TX-NR807 comes equipped with DLNA network streaming for audio, plus access to Internet radio, and firmware updates over your home network.

Both receivers take Dolby True HD and DTS-HD, have eight channel Burr-Brown PCM1690 DACs and Texas Instruments' Aureus chips.The '707 offers a zone 2 capability, while the '807 ups that to a zone 2 and zone 3.
You'll also find Onkyo's U.Port on both machines, compatible with the UP-A1 dock and the soon to be released UP-DT1 DAB+ digital radio module.
On to the DV-BD507 player, and you'll find 1080p/24fps output for BD and 1080p upscaling for DVD, while there's decoding for all HD audio codecs and BD-Live support.
A front-mounted SD card slot, DivX playback and AVCHD compatibility help to make for a thorough specification.
