for $449.99 at Circuit City.

After searching pricegrabber.com Vann's has it here for $419.99 with free shipping.

The SR800 is a much nicer and newer system. It includes an HDMI switch (video only) and also has much better processing inside.

Also 7.1 and updated subs/speakers.

Onkyo makes the best quality equipment you can find on the low/mid end, but the prices on their new generation are so good I cant imagine why you would pickup the older ones (Note they dont even sell a 6.1 anymore, as 5.1 and 7.1 have overtaken it. Also the X80s are 2 generations old at this point. The X90s are even out of date.)

Although this site you linked to is Canadian, and I havent looked at the SR800 in canada :p

I have seen this same system sell for less. But for the same price you can get Onkyo's top of the line "Bose Buster" HT-S990THX for $449 (normally $900-1,000)

$999@shop onkyo.

Shipping for that system (estimated) is $300. :brokenheart:

Ouch!
