Poor quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Voices on this receiver are not heard clearly, as if they are muffled. It is likely that negative effects will occur when using modern audio systems that take advantage of new technologies such as digital signal processing (DSP) and high-resolution streaming.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Sound quality

Onkyo is new age junk
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second Onkyo receiver I had to return in less than a day! Both these receivers broke within minutes of setting it up. Also, the second one got very hot within seconds of operation to where I couldn’t touch it due to the heat…INSTANT RETURN! BTW, I’ve had 2 receivers in 40 years & now, in the advanced technological age, I’ve had 3 in two days! Btw, Onkyo owns Pioneer so stay away from that product as well. They like to play stupid games when you make a warranty claim. I’ve replaced the Onkyos with Sony & I also purchased a fan ($59) to help it stay cool…I do not trust these new age receivers!

Bang for Buck … but
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice unit, plenty of features…. But that’s where the problem comes in. I think they pack too much in for the price and maybe skimp on parts. I didn’t like the setup with tv it requires, I just wanted to plug n play to test out speakers. Sounds great on fm tuned, but the Bluetooth processor must be cheap. My Bluetooth volumes were about half as loud as the tuner. I mainly returned for that reason and stepped up to the Sony an1000… great choice!
