Onkyo TX-SR707 7.2-Channel A/V Surround Home Theater Receiver 1st Class – In Every Way – JCTucson – Oro Valley, AZ USA
It worked right out of the box, beautiful picture and great sound. I was replacing an older Marantz that was w/o HDMI video, and this sounds every bit as good. Hookup was a breeze, and now I’ll install 3 additional pairs of speakers (2 front & 1 side) to go from 5.1 and fully utilize the 7.2 capabilities.
One important note: after mucking around in setup, I could not get my Sony BD DVD to display. I called customer support, and I spoke immediately with an Onkyo tech support person who walked me through my error. Everything works great, and it’s a breeze to switch between all of my componets that are plugged into the receiver.
If there’s a complaint, the unit runs ‘warm,’ but Onkyo says this is normal.
It’s would have been easy to have spent more, but this one does it all. I’m very happy.
Excellent Receiver – R. Rogers –
This is hands down the best receiver I have ever purchased, it has ample HDMI ports and various other connection ports. I hook the receiver to my Polk speakers RM85 and two front towers TSi 400 and old my God it was amazing. Just purchased a PS3 and will connect it to my receiver and use HDMI from receiver to TV an I can’t wait to see what the picture looks like. Amazon had the best price on this receiver and I am extremely happy at this point in time and will recommend this item to anyone.
