Hello all,
going to upgrade to a new Home Audio system this week. I am sold on the ONKYO brand name but i have no clue as to what the real differance is between the S6200 and the S7200 besides the tallboy speakers. Here is what i have and need to hook up to this new system.

TV is a 52 Samsung - brand new

WII
PS2 - yes i still play it all the time.
PS3
Blue Ray Player

I really want the Audio and Video to go through the HDMI. im pretty sure the S6200 can do all that plus its about $150 cheaper than the S7200. am i missing anything?

FYI - im upgrading from a base sony system i bought 5 years ago brand new for like $150.00 total.

:)No, you're not missing anything. You will be perfectly happy with the 6200. They both use basically the same receiver and speakers, so you won't be missing out on any functionality by going with the 6200 over the 7200. You can use the money you save to purchase some different speaker wire, though. Go to www.monoprice.com to get the speaker wire and any HDMI and other connecting cables you need.

I figure i will need at least 3 more HDMI cables and i have a TON of quality speaker wire, I have all the stuff from my old setup plus a brand new 50ft spool.
