Awsome

 

The only thing that would make this a PERFECT system would me a HDTV tuner built in.

Works much better than expected. Replaces my PC and/or video converter box. Aux HDMI input in front is also a nice feature. Good GUI

None

Excellent

 

Great sound, powered zone 2 (though I haven't used it yet), and internet radio services (with wifi adapter)

The three point sound calibrator is a joke, just use the single (better yet, do it manually). And the HD component video inputs only let through 480 or 720... one of those. Moral of the story is, you can't hook up an Xbox or Blue ray to the component...

ONKYO TX-NR515

 

Works well, firmware updated on startup. I am very impressed for the price.

Cheap, many inputs, wireless capable

Occasionally quirky (much less than a typical windows computer however), somewhat slow switching inputs/features

First receiver

 

Solid feature set for the price point. Bought on Black Friday

Airplay was the one feature I wish it had

Update your Firmware

 

Over all i really enjoy the features and sound quality and being 4k video ready will keep this receiver from being obsolete for years

Great features for the price. sound quality is amazing I've had receivers that cost me way more and sound about the same

the stickers to label the speaker wire do not match the colors of binding posts so read label not the colors

Good receiver for price

 

I bought this to replace old Yamaha 5830 which had no HDMI inputs in my family room which has 5.1 bookself Yamaha speakers and sub. My old Yamaha was able to fill the room and my was was complaining to turn down volume, with this one she has yet to...

of Inputs, 7.2, Multi-room support, 1.4 HDMI, HDMI pass through that actually works, included USB dongle for WIFI and looks good, price, decent sound

only 80 Watts per channel output, not loud enough for my room

awesome!!!

 

Must buy at the price it's at right now people below me don't know nothing :))

It is a great Receiver work perfect out the box Hooked up my definitive technology speakers and they sound awesome from this receiver. Perfect with the app at first after the update of the app and firmware

Sometimes the app fails and I'm not sure why it does that. Other then that perfect receiver for the price I bought it at 600

Lot's of cool features and it's working

 

This receiver has a lot of cool features. I was debating whether to give it 5 or 4 stars. I will go with 4 just because of the HDMI issue. Originally I wasn't going to use the HDMI feature, but I tried it and I like it. I have had it a few weeks now...

Not ready for prime-time

 

I am returning this to amazon and purchasing the Sony 830 instead due to the lack of problems with the Sony. Let's go over the list of issues I've had with this in the whopping five days I've had it. 1. HDMI output not working randomly requiring...

Horrible, should not be sold

 

This unit should have been pulled from the market a long time ago. Seemed like a nice set of features, but it drops the video signals from time to time and requires the unit to be unplugged for a reset. I have updated the firmware but this still...
