Great receiver

This is a great receiver with great options/capabilities and for the price I doubt it can be beaten. Sound is very good although I am not an audiofile, but with the AccuEQ Room Calibration it does a great job in adjusting speaker output for great sound...

6 input HDMI, supports 4k TV, network capable thru hard wire or wifi, bluetooth, included music & radio apps like spotify, support CEC compliant devices, auto audio set-up and balance for speaker location and room, audio connectors support multiple...

None so far

Not a review - Just a link to an owner's manual

I wanted to help by responding to a review but, I saw no option to do so. My only option was to write a review and, that could unfairly alter the product rating as a result. Going forward, hopefully this option will exist in the near future.

I read the reviews on this product and noticed one customer complained about not being to find any documentation on this receiver. The first sentence of the product description indicates it comes bundled with an Acoustimass system. I checked Bose's...

Works Great, Great App, Easy Setup

All the "mod cons", super easy to use, inexpensive. Happy.

Easy to set up and use. The included brief getting started manual in english was all I needed.and got right to the point. Bluetooth was simple. Onkyo app (using Remote 3, for some reason there are 3 onkyo apps named 1,2,3)works great and easy, found my...

For the price, features, and sound quality, tough to beat this unit. No real cons I can think of. Only had it a week, so hope it lasts, but everything is great so far.

Great Entry Level Receiver

I have this setup under a covered porch and it works well for me. 95% of my use I use this is listening to music from my phone via the Bluetooth connection and watching shows via a Roku. I have the receiver connected to a 1080p projector (to a 110'...

None yet... I guess the remote feels a little cheap, but I don't have any issues with it.

Update review

This unit is a sub component of a home theater set HT-S5700. If you go to onkyousa under support/manual you can see all the manuals listed under the HT system. The 'home' key on the remote lets you setup most of the hardware. I still cannot get the...

Similar problems for blu-ray and TV. I can get it to turn them on/off using the remote even though there are buttons for that function.

Disappointed

Really glad my old remote still works the other components.

6 HDMI input and 1 output to the TV, network connection. Video and sound pass thru the HDMI. Pretty loaded - check the specs. Good sound.

No English Manual - got one in Spanish. I went to the Onkyo web-site and there is NOTHING on this unit like it is off-shore unit not normally sold in US. I can't turn the TV off on on using the remote. The cable unit comes on - but no guide options or...
