ONKYO 705 advantages over 605? or other models?

motoadve · 10-10-2007, 04:58 PM

I have the option to change my just purchased Onkyo 605 into a 705 model.
Or maybe even a better model if needed.

With the 605
Im happy with HD DVD quality.
Not happy with Direct TV (goes via HDMI from the Onkyo to the HD plasma tv)
I have been told that if it goes thru component it will have better picture quality , true?

So so with the Xbox 360 , via Xbox 360 HD component cables to the Onkyo and via HDMI to the tv from the AMP.Good HD , but also Too much picture noise

Will the 705 give me better picture quality or any other model in that case improve the picture quality?

By the way how about sound improvement too?
