It's not a matter of being obsolete - it's a matter of Onkyo's customer service being pretty bad.
What is the "DTS bitstream bomb"? And do you know what the latest firmwear issue is for the 885? [/b]
To be clear, the fix for the "bomb" is not updating the firmware......I think the latest is 1.08 or 1.09. You need to update the DSP code which is more involved. As Gonk said, AVS has an Onkyo Firmware Upgrade thread that has all the info on it's first page. (AVP Requiem - Directors Cut also has the bomb)
