    • is that sony receiver any good?
      Don't do it.

      Get a reciever with DTS HD and TrueHD, for future-proof.

      It's a good receiver for the price. If you want to "future-proof" with features you may not need or ever use, be prepared to pay at least twice this price.


      .and even then you'll never be "future-proof". There's no such thing

      The Sony STRDG820 decodes both DTS HD and TrueHD.

      From: http://www.sonystyle.ca/commerce/ser...ductId=1005040


      Decoding Formats

      DTS HD / Dolby TrueHD / Dolby Digital +
      LPCM (2CH / 5.1CH / 7.1CH) through HDMI
      Dolby Digital / DTS
      Dolby Digital EX
      DTS-ES (MATRIX 6.1 / DISCRETE 6.1)
      DTS 96/24
      DTS NEO:6
      Dolby Prologic
      Dolby Prologic II, Dolby Prologic IIx
      Dolby Dual Mono
      96k / 24Bit PCM
      Neural -THX Surround: 225, 227 only

      For $299, this is a fairly good price for a 7.1 HDMI receiver with built in HD audio decoders.

    • What's so special about this surge protector that makes it worth $70? It only has 8 outlets and it's Dynex for crying out loud. You can probably find a better brand with the same features for half the cost.

    • The DG-820 for $299 in Canada is an absolute steal. This is even better than most US prices for this unit. Has 4 HDMI inputs, does TrueHD and DTS-MA.

      Note however, that this unit DOES NOT do video upscaling or upconversion to HDMI. If you need that best bet is to get the Onkyo TX-SR606, preferably somewhere in the US where you can find it for < $350.

      Good point with regards to the upscaling!

      I was going to purchase the Onkyo 606, but it's just too expensive in Canada.
      I don't want to deal with cross border shipping, so I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Sony 820.

      Same question...

      Better deal with Dell's Deal of BELKIN's 12-Outlet Surge Protector for $15.99.
      That's one of the best surge protector.

      Thanks.

    • My buddy just got an 820 and PS3. Sounds and looks great. The unit ships with a pink noise generator built in and external microphone to make setting up the surround a snap.

      From what I heard it did a pretty good job.

      At 299 this is a great deal. Will probably have to pull the trigger on this and move the Yamaha upstairs.

    • Does this Sony 7.1 Channel A/V Receiver STRDG820 require that you connect optical/coaxial for audio 5.1 surround output, or is it a true "one cable connection" via HDMI input for both 1080p video and 5.1 surround sound to pass through the HDMI connection

      I noticed it only has 3 optical digital connections and 1 coaxial connection.......

      you forgot this is FS's version of "Dell days"...

      which means their "deals" are usually overpriced crap/refurb items...

      It will depend on what device you are connecting to the Sony receiver.

      It is a true "one cable" connection via HDMI if you are connecting it to a Blu-Ray/HD-DVD/DVD player or a PS3 as the receiver will process both video and audio signals from the device. It can handle video up to 1080p and will accept audio over HDMI. It has decoders for HD audio codecs (TrueHD, DTS-HD) in addition to being able to process PCM audio over HDMI.

      If for some reason your Blu-Ray/HD-DVD player does not have built in decoders for TrueHD or DTS-HD, the receiver has built in decoders to handle these audio codecs. That way you can enjoy your HD content with HD audio too.

      The speakers attached to the receiver will output the sound from the HDMI device accordingly, in either 5.1 or 7.1 depending your speaker setup.

      For other devices such as STB/HDTV boxes that uses separate audio/video connectsions such as component/DVI and optical out, you will need to connect the digital optical audio for the audio output.

      For a receiver in this price range, 3 x digital optical in & 1 x coaxial in is normal.

    • Is there any way to convert regular red/black speaker wires (going to the subwoofer) to the RCA subwoofer plug that this receiver requires?
