Sometimes blue screen
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It isn’t terrible but I’ve had better. Don’t get me wrong the sound is great for the money however it’s more of the issue with the HDMI ARC It randomly goes to blue screen when trying to select back to cable vs smart tv or game. I previously had a Yamaha and it worked great never had this issue but went bad when it was struck by lightning.

Great Reciever for home theater system
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great receiver but was disappointed to find out that that built-in ChromeCast doesn't allow the streaming of video, it just streams the audio. I wish they would call it something else like ChromeCast Lite or Audio or something to call attention to the fact that it isn't going to give you the same experience as a full-fledged ChromeCast would.

Initial Setup Review
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The setup was fairly easy. The only hiccup I encountered was an HDMI setting on my 4K LG tv needed to be turned on to enable 4K content to play through. As soon as I did that the receivers OSD menu came up and I followed the simple instructions. After tuning only the Front L/R speakers, it sounds amazing! I can’t wait to add more speakers in the future. (Will definitely have a follow up review in a view months)

I wanted to like this unit
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to like this unit as I have long been an Onkyo fan but since I returned it to Best Buy (hassle free return experience by the way) I cannot recommend. On the plus side, this unit packs a huge amount of technology into a budget price point and from that standpoint it is a best buy. It looked impressive and was surprisingly heavy and solid for a piece of electronic equipment these days. However it was so frustrating to use (Bluetooth, network, speaker set up and remote control) that at first I thought it was me. Then after wrestling with the scant documentation provided including the manual and getting zero help from customer service, it dawned on me that the unit was probably pushed to market at a low price point where the consumer was left to fend for himself. I even contacted a Best Buy store for help and that ended up trying to upsell me to a more expensive unit.
