Red face Onkyo TX-SR674E

Does anybody have one of these Onkyo TX-SR674E?

The guy in the shop said it would support HD sound, but when looking at the User Manual online it has no mention of the HD formats (DolbyD+ is there) but no TrueHD or DTS.

Can anyone help as i would like to upgrade my AMP and it caught my eye. not bad for £500 if it does support it!

Thanks

I now have the Onkyo SR-604B.. The reciever has HDMI for Video and TrueHD audio in addition to supporting DD+ and DTS. I am working on a review which should be done later this week.

BTW: TrueHD can also be supported via analog inputs but you must have a Toshiba HD-DVD player with analog outputs.

I have had this now for a few months with the Q-A 1010's and it's awsome! Get's really hot though. The sound & picture is amazing.
