    I am happy with this purchase. Highlights are excellent sound with my 5.1 setup, plenty of HDMI inputs for my current system, and a user friendly interface.

    There are fewer and fewer home theater receiver choices for consumers - fortunately, this choice still exists. It's excellent and won't disappoint the consumer.

    The sound is great and loud, but for some reason it is hard to hear the dialog (people talking). I have to turn the sound way up to hear them clear, but then when there is an action scene it is ridiculously loud so I have to turn it down and up all the time. There is an option to turn the center channel DB up, but again, its just to loud when there are action scenes. I also tried the night mode, but it is still the same situation as stated above.

    Excellent sounding for movies and music, full stereo is a very cool feature to have and I think onkyo is the only one doing that. Phono pre amp is good too

    Definitely completed the set up for the upstairs home video system. Now I can play music from my phone into the system without my old connection set up. It was an open box so the price was great
