Best Bang For Your Buck March 19, 2010 Steven Michael Hernandez (Reedley, CA) First off, this receiver isn't very expensive at all compared to other receivers in it's class. It practically decodes everything and it has six full 1080p HDMI inputs. I have cheap Yamaha 5.1 speakers from and older surround sound in a box system and this receiver brought new life to them. As far as performance, this receiver is amazing. The cons of the system can easily be overlooked and here they are: First off, the manual is confusing as all hell. It's not for novices by any means. It runs pretty hot, so expect the room you place it in to rise in temperature by a degree or two... maybe more. It's a little bigger than you'd expect, but it fits nicely in my entertainment center regardless. I heard the upconversion is a little on the weak side, but if you're buying a receiver with six HDMI inputs, why would you be upconverting anything? Sounds to me like everything you own is HDMI. I know everything I own is. The only thing I have left to say is buy it and enjoy it.
Wonderful! March 16, 2010 J. Krieger (Fairfax, VA) Bought this receiver as an upgrade to my Onkyo HT-SR600S unit (although I am still using that set's speakers). Having all the HDMI hookups is a dream come true and choosing between inputs (ps3, 360, cable, etc) a synch (and gives my girlfriend less headaches) as all the video can be streamed through to the TV via one HDMI cable, including the Wii and 360 which are hooked up via Component cables.
Only downside is I had to order a new powered subwoofer as I couldn't hook my old one up.
The sweet spot in Onkyo's lineup March 14, 2010 J. Schenck (La Vista, NE) I did a lot of research after returning the Harman Kardon 154 I purchased locally. I was not happy with the HK 154 because I didn't realize at the time I purchased it that it would not convert composite to HDMI. I did not want to run composite cables from my receiver to the TV. This Onkyo model will do the analog to digital conversion so I can run the Wii through this system and still just use the HDMI cable from the receiver to the TV. I did end up also adding an optical connection from the TV to the Onkyo so I could pipe the cable TV sound from the TV through the sound system. This is the lowest end model from Onkyo that does analog to digital conversion.
So, the sound. I bought the Klipsch HDT1000 speaker bundle with this receiver. After going through the simple microphone based setup (included with this Onkyo) the sound is truly stunning. The clarity and fullness of sound is amazing. I can clearly distinguish subtle nuances in the movies from one speaker to another. It's as full as the sound system in a typical theater and sounds crisper than the theaters. I'm sure this system could get loud enough to break windows but I'm really enjoying the fact that I get incredible sound at lower volume levels.
The Onkyo 607 and Klipsch HDT1000 setup was a bit more money than I had originally planned on spending on a home theater but I have no regrets. I obsessed over this for a few weeks and did a lot of research. No regrets on buying this equipment.
Don't be fooled - buying an Onkyo receiver would be a mistake March 12, 2010 C. Halcrow 1 out of 8 found this review helpful
I recently purchased this item and will be returning it, however, in general my experience is with the previous TX-SR605 and TX-SR606.
Simply put, if you plan on keeping a receiver for more than a year don't bother with an Onkyo.
Don't take my word for it, enter Onkyo HDMI problem into google and spend the week reading tales of consumers woe.
Although they are aware of the problem (how could they not be), repair depots don't stock the parts (which can take weeks to get to the service center).
If you do buy one and need to get it serviced be prepared for extraordinarily surly customer service and extensive wait times.
Again, don't take my word for it. Use google. Stories of bad customer service and multiple repairs to units are everywhere.
My personal experience is that both receivers have failed. My further research has shown me these are not isolated incidents.
Onkyo Vs Denon March 9, 2010 Oscar (New Jersey) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was a really big fan of Onkyo, infact I still have my first power amp the Denon M282 and my son still uses it to this day. The new Onkyo's just does'nt hit the same mark as the new Denons. For a few dollars more you can get a really good Denon such as the AVR1910 a good price and have a far beter receiver. If you check out some of the deals on line such as the coupon from exponj (WS901X5750) you can get the denon for just a few dollars more then the Onkyo's and have a receiver the can do two zones and have a far better flexability for any upgrades you would what do to down the road. Build and sound quality is far better on the Denon.
