Onkyo - HT S3910 5.1-Ch. Hi-Res 3D Home Theater Speaker System - Black

Good sound , and quality is perfect and good price

We got this to replace an old HTIB system that was struggling with some of the new audio on our streaming services. I didn’t want to spend a ton, but wanted something more than a sound bar to replace the inadequate TV speakers. This system isn’t going to blow the walls off, and we do have to turn it up to like 60 to fill the room, but it provides a very satisfying sound upgrade. It was easy to set up (we already had wiring for the rear speakers). It sounds very good and has plenty of inputs if we ever want to hook up game systems or a disc player. ARC works well with our TCL Roku TV so we only need one remote which is very convenient! We briefly tested the Bluetooth with our iPhones and had no problems at all. My only complaint is how tall the receiver is (I guess they all are though). It wouldn’t fit where we had the old receiver/DVD player combo unit so we had to rearrange everything which was a pain.

Nothing negative to report except possibly the size of the receiver. Easy to set up and use. As this is my first 5.1 I cannot compare, but I am very happy with the sound quality*. Note that wiring to the satellite speakers is included, a nice perk. *Forgot what the movie was, but a dog unexpectedly barked in a scene... it sounded like it was about a foot from my right ear. I inadvertently jumped and looked over.

For the price point I cannot complain about this system. It did get some time to get use to changing the different audio modes. I feel like it sometimes detects Dolby Atmos automatically and sometimes it doesn't. Not sure if the playback device or HT. The speakers are good for the bundle, but I'll clearly upgrade them in the future. The reason for 4 stars is the subwoofer. it's really weak. I have a Phillips soundbar with a stronger subwoofer. I had an Aiwa HT in 1995 25W and the subwoofer was stronger. I dont need to raise the volume 75+ to enjoy good bass.

We are using this mid-price home-theater-in-a-box in a smaller space with a 40" class Vizio TV. Sound provides adequate color, dimension, and tone. The subwoofer gives us sufficiently dramatic bass for our use with movies and streaming services. I set up the Onkyo and the TV with a Roku Express all at the same time with no issues. Connected to Xfinity cable and home wifi just fine. Controls have been easy to use. Onkyo identifies the input source automatically and works with the existing Comcast control to power on and off, and to control volume.
