Sometimes people ask me why my deals are always low- to mid-market products.

It’s mainly because I’m cheap, but also because flagship products usually demand flagship prices, closed distribution networks and warranty restrictions.

Luckily, every now and then, a huge online retailer cracks that distribution network and drives down the price of a great flagship product.

NewEgg found its way into Onkyo’s authorized dealer network by selling a ton of entry-level receivers and HTiBs. Now they’re leveraging their buying power to bring the price down on Onkyo’s flagship receiver, offering the TX-NR5007 for $1799 ($900 off MSRP).

This 55-pound beast includes 145w x 9 amplification, every audio decoding and processing spec under the sun (including Dolby PLIIz and Audyssey DSX for height/wide channels), HQV Reon VX video processing, dual HDMI outputs, 8 HDMI inputs, and Burr-Brown 192 kHz/32-Bit DACs.

Consumer market receivers don’t get much better than this, especially not at that price.

Deals subject to change and may be limited as items sell out.
