I'm getting rid of my Kenwoood kr-a3060 and i want to get an Onkyo TX-SR500 .Here are the specs. http://reviews.cnet.com/av-receivers/onkyo-tx-sr500-black/4507-6466_7-9740686.html .I'll just listen to radio and cd's ,nothing else.I figured it might be a good price for 50,what do you think?
Onkyo TX-SR500, 50.00 good price?

Assuming it's in good working condition, sure why not.
that is an awesome price
and if it has component in/out for the video, keep in mind that component in/out is at least as good of a resolution as HDMI
even if it has no video switching, still a smoking deal for a surround sound amp from one of the world's most legendary audio firms!

Cant go wrong for 50 bucks, more than enough options if you just listen to audio cds

Last time I checked, component video cannot do 1080p...so no, it's not as good.
Still, for $50 it would work fine as a basic amplifier.

component does 1080p fantastically, however, the evil movie studios have this feature crippled on many blu-ray players because using 1080p over component pretty much renders their copy-protection useless

1080p is not technically supported by component. Some players won't output it, some TVs won't take that as an input. HDMI still offers several key improvements over component beyond just the supported resolutions, but you can go on Wikipedia to read all that stuff.

with some decent speakers, more than good enough for casual listening, I'd say - and for $50!
How 'bout this one for 59 from ebay.I might be able to pick up,so no shipping fees. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ONKYO-TX-SR313-5...=item1e7b5dde8b
The ONKYO TX-SR313 is much newer than TX-SR500, TX-SR313 has HDMI connections. I would go with TX-SR313 if you can get it for less than $100. $59 is the minimum bid, someone may bid more than that.
I finally got me an Onkyo TX-SR800 for 50.00.I'm not going to use all the speaker outputs,maybe only 4.Now, I've tried hooking 2 speakers to 2 different ports and i don't get sound on one.I didn't do no switching to ,like,THX,or Dolby,or other setting.Should i still get sound regardless out of all ports? I was listening to the radio only.
