Treeboy Unregistered guest | http://www.onkyousa.com/model.cfm?m=TX-LR552&class=Receiver&p=i I thought I had finally decided on the 502, but then somewhere this one popped up. Has it been recently released or have I just totally missed it? How does the 502 compare with the TX-LR552? From what I can tell, the 552 doesn't have WRAT, loses an input, and only puts out 65w (at 6 ohms nonetheless), but adds component video upconversion in a smaller package with some extra bells and whistles (onscreen menus, etc.). As an A/V receiver, looks to be more V than A. But how does it sound and stack up to 502? Also, I cannot tell from Onkyo's website specs if the 552 has A/B Speaker switching. Any thoughts and opinions would be appreciated! |
