Best Quality receiver for the money! |
|
I bought this receiver after a long research period and found this to be the best receiver for the money. I had considered a yamaha receiver (663or863) but the features on the onkyo had me sold. The onkyo had more HDMI inputs and was THX certified. The sound quality is great since I paired it up with the definitive technology Procinema 600. I recommend this receiver to anyone that wants a quality receiver for a good price. |

CUSTOMER SERVICE/WARRANTY SUCKS |
I purchased this receiver 4 months ago. Started having some issues after a storm, mainly related to the remote control. After calling their customer service, I was told that I would have to ship the unit, and of course pay for it to a location in Corpus Christie, TX. (I live in Dallas)
They were not helpful at all to me in solving the problem which was under warranty.
Please think about it. Why would Onkyo choose a warranty repair facility in the farthest away location in Texas with a very small population when they could have chosen one with a much greater population concentration such as Dallas, Houston, etc..
I think they want you to not want to ship it, so basically NO WARRANTY!
Onkyo 705 may be a good enough product, but if you need their warranty, you are out of luck. |

A lot of Power & Functions for a low price |
|
After a considerable amount of research and investigating several different Home Theater options such as HTIB, Bose 321, and high end and low end component solutions, I finally stumbled across the HDMI Onkyo Home Theatre line. This was the only affordable option that included all of the functions that I was looking for (7.1, On Board lossless signal decoding, Multi HDMI connectivity and pass thru, power, etc.). It's been 10 months, and the unit has yet to disappoint. I have several components hooked up to this receiver: a Denon upconverting dvd player, Samsung LNT4665 Flat Panel, Verizon's lame motorola box (all connected via HDMI) a PS2 (via component cables) and a cd changer (via composite). Switching between these components is a simple press of the remote. I've had no handshaking issues. A word of caution is that this unit gets really hot. I had to relocate it to a separate section of my home theatre console, so it had plenty of top clearance. I'm currently running as a 5.1 system; paired up with two Polk Monitor 50 speakers, a Polk CSi3 Center Speaker, two cheap surrounds (until I can pick up the Polk Dipoles), and a Sub. Whether it is music or movie sound tracks, this system rocks. I can clearly hear the highs and lows without any problems. Our neighbor spent a thousand on a high end receiver from Best Buy that has the same functionality and performance as this one. for the same money, I was able to pick up some new speakers. |

Good product. |

Runs cool. Setup is relatively simple. Integrated easily with my Samsung DLP, Samsung DVD, and DirecTV receiver. Product met all of my expectations. I have used this product for 7 months with no problems. |
