The Onkyo line is all pretty similar. The 705-905 all share the same DSP while the 605 has a less powerful one, the 605-805 have DCDi, while the 875-905 have Reon.

The main differences besides that is that the power supply/shielding/circuitry setup gets better as you move up the scale. So if you like the way the 805 sounds, you'll like the 875 too - but you'll get much better video processing on the 875 that may save you from buying a super-expensive external scaler or expensive BD player with a vp chip.
