    How will this unit change the sound on my current system? It will be a about 6 weeks before I can push the front sounds stage to RTi a7's. ( space permiting, I'm down to measuring fractions of an inch to make sure every thing fits,LOL.

    That is an AMAZING deal. I bought my SC-25 not too long ago for around $600/shipped. Jump on it, you wont find find a better AVR for anywhere near that price.

    People selling their elite will hate to see this deal. That's a great price. Does anyone know if Costco is an authorized dealer? Just
    worried about the warranty.

    Tommy T, my man, if you have the money BUY THIS. I had a 1020 as well (which I love btw) and I was able to find a SC-37, open boxed, for a crazy good deal. The 37 is damn near Identical to the 35, just minus the RF feature and a few minor things. You will notice the difference from the ICEamps inside. And plus youll have a receiver with pre outs, so you can get an external amp and rock it even harder.

    The only downside is that this will make you want to buy better speakers haha they weren't kidding when about this being an addiction you wont want to stop lol
    Home Theater Setup
    • Receiver - Onkyo TX-RZ1100

    I bought 2 of them from Costco the 1st time around and one arrived a little dinged and one was mint but they both work fine. Good deal.

    It all depends on what your willing to settle for. Yes the speakers will make sound. External amplifier would be even better.

    This is a digustingly sick deal on a SC-35, I wonder if they'll put the SC-37 on sale also.

    yes, it will handle them. However the 12's will still like an amp to get the most out of them. I ran a full RTI A9 set up without issues. But I did gain better sound with a good solid amp behind them as well.
