Good receiver but returned it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a good receiver, but I needed one that had posts for all of the connections rather than just a couple. My lesson learned is to always inspect an image of the back of the receiver CAREFULLY before ordering. I returned the receiver for this reason.

Don’t Recommend disappointed in Onkyo and Best Buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wouldn’t recommend. Has good features but can’t handle loud volumes. I purchased two and the first blew in 31 days so Best Buy wouldn’t honor the warranty as it was 24 hours past the window (eye roll) so I purchased another and it blew in 2 days…Admittedly I was watching movies at almost full volume in my theatre room both times, but why have a volume level it can’t handle. I have a Yamaha from 2013 that handles the same volume for extended periods perfectly fine. Disappointed in Onkyo and Best Buy to say the least. I’m stuck with a 31 day old Receiver that wont work. Also good luck with Onkyo customer service. I can get it repaired if I drive 1.5 hours and leave it with a shop for two weeks…sweet

Great receiver at a great price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded from an 18 year old sony receiver and i immediately noticed the difference. Hdmi inputs are easy to hook up my other components. Its not as powerful as my old one but when i turn it up it sounds noticeably cleaner.
