Onkyo may or may not be the actual market leader in audio/video receivers, measured by unit sales, dollars, or any other B-school metric you care to name. But I’m fairly certain that, year in, year out, they produce more new AVR models combining...

Comprehensive connectivity ; Wide format compatibility ; Ace sound from all 7 channels

Auto setup is not foolproof ; 7.1.2 not possible ; Auto setup is not foolproof

Good effects steering Fluid presentation Extensive feature set

Needs more attack and edge definition

The Onkyo TX-NR838 is a comprehensive AV receiver. It has an unbelievable number of features that cater for all reasonable AV needs, and even looks to the future. It’s really quite surprising this box isn’t a lot bigger. The sound is impressive too,...

Immersive Dolby Atmos performance; four 4K 60fps inputs; good network specification with Bluetooth; HDCP 2.2 copy protection

No support for dual-band 5.6 GHz Wi-Fi; Dolby Atmos configuration takes time to tune; you’ll need to sacrifice conventional 7.1 to go 5.1.2

No sound comes out of all units after a very short time. Good luck getting it fixed

Great A/V Receiver Does a very good job with the sound and video. Connected with my network w/out a problem and has successfully reconnected whenever I have turned it back on. Installation was easy when you are using only HDMI cables. I did connect up...

Only thing I was not able to hook up to it was a very old cassette player which I do not use any more so not really a con.

Has everything you can ask for (4k, HDMI 2.0, Pre-outs, Dolby Atmos (with upcoming firmware release), wireless, Bluetooth, tons of inputs)

First thing, the ethernet port stopped could get an IP from my router. Worst yet, every time I connected to the router it crashed my router. I even tried a different router--same results. Second issue is that screen will sometimes flicker in and out...
