My unit shipped yesterday - I can't wait! As long as those used those tax dollars to buy us high-end A/V equipment and source material, I might not complain too much... ;-)

DarthDave, I'm like cybertec - my Integra isn't here yet either. Should be about 1 more week, I hope! Anyway cybertec's statement is not exactly correct. The componetry between these two units is identical, with the exception of whatever circuits Onkyo had to add to the 885 to add the "Pure Sound" feature, which the Integra doesn't have. This is only a theoretical advantage to the Onkyo, apparently, because other owners seem to all report that plain ole stereo sounds better
