I bought a brand new txnr676 in 2018. I used it real real hard, as I work from home and tend to watch movies while I work. I use hardware at least twice as hard as most folk as this is one of my main hobbies/entertainment avenues. Originally I had it configured w a 4k, HDMI 2 capable TV. No hdr, not much else then to get 4k and ATMOS sound out of my movies and video games. Eventually I ended up with a way more modern Vizio 4k HDR TV w HDMI 2.1, and eventually the inputs on my older receiver started switching on their own and the over all sound stage started to degrade. I imagine I could probably open up the chassis and replace some capacitors or resisters, check the soldering on some contacts, and it would be fine.. but, I saw a sale and decided to get a different machine. I need 5.2.2 out, 120hz 4k for gaming and UHD for films and streaming. I was originally going to try a Denon x3800h, but after a few months of research I ended up deciding on the Onkyo as it was repeatedly rated the best for 4k gaming and upper mid range home theater. The added bonus of IMAX and THX support and 8k at 60hz (for the TV upgrade to 8k eventually) were welcome additions.Quick setup, similar to the older Onkyo, it ended up integrating better because it recognized and added itself to my Google Nest network. Also, it had a feature that can tune each channel to specific speaker combos if you own them, and I do, in fact own some real nice Klipsch reference towers, surround, subs and their upfiring ATMOS joints. That was really cool. It knows exactly how to send audio to each of my speakers the best way for that speaker channel.So, it plays my games great, automatically handling picture settings for games to my TV, the audio is much improved over the last gen. Very clear channel definition, powerful highs, very clear and soft lows. 5.1 upmixed to ATMOS sounds spectacular and processing 1080p or lower still look really great in unconverted 4k.I've got a Roku ultra, PS4 pro, Xbox Series X and a Nintendo Switch all doing work through the receiver to the TV.The HDR is crisp. Audio passthrough and eArc work great.After a week of regular use I can say with confidence this was a great purchase.

I've been an Integra user for many many years. Before that I had Denon, Onkyo, and Yamaha. The Integra (by Onkyo) was my favorite. But alas, the audio failed, a common problem on some of these models. But I liked it so much, I bought another Onkyo.This should have been a 10 minute process to remove the old Integra and install the new Onkyo. But noooooo! Somebody at Onkyo thought it would be a good idea to use NON STANDARD banana plugs on the speaker terminals. Banana plugs have been standard on audio amplifiers forever. Why did they make these incompatible? Note in the photo, that the industry standard banana plug will not fit into the banana plugs on the receiver because they are further apart! Yeah, I know, first world problems! But do you know how long it took me to bend my 12 gauge speaker wires into shape and shove them into little openings? And the wires are not held securely by these banana posts. I tighten them down, go back a few minutes later, and they need retightening. If I had known this, I would have bought a different model! I didn't take a star off for this, because this does not affect operation.I will update the review when I finish setting up the receiver.This receiver sounds great! The automatic setup is a piece of cake and really works well. I am very pleased!

The item had serious defect issues with the HDMI inputs and outputs not transferring the signal up to the TV. Also, it had trouble loading its menu on the screen on the TV in a timely manner or not at all, Even though I was using a certified ultra high speed 8K and 4K 48 GB cables tried switching The cables out with different ones same result receiver failed the sun signals to the TV multiple times and it also failed to display the menu in a timely manner or not at all no matter what I did it would not work. Had to return the item. what a waste of time, I went with hey a DENON receiver model: AVR-S770H even though it’s a drown grade and wattage, it’s still provides me with what I need and every other aspect like this model would have, however from what I’ve heard oculus suffered a huge hit during the pandemic during the microchip crisis which led them to a huge production flaw in their products they’re selling junk from third-party sellers on AmazonJust to get rid of them the Denon receivers are sold by Amazon and not third-party seller and Amazon is an authorized dealer of DENON. Selside or Listen Up Inc. is not an authorized dealer of ONKYO products but yet Amazon allows them to without mentioning anything about this, which is deceptive and misleading, and should be put to an end immediately at least that’s what I read from another reviewer on here about this product so I did some fact checking about it online and even Alexa confirmed ONKYO had a huge production issue during the pandemic with the microchip crisis, which led many products being released without the proper microchips being installed which led the thousands of ONKYO receivers being put on the market that we’re not working properly before ONKYO Corporate was made aware of this, And then halted all production of its products during the pandemic until they could acquire chips again, but by then it was too late hundreds of units were already on the market defectively being sold. so the likelihood of you getting one of these defective receivers is pretty high from this seller sure may be a few return a few you’ll finally get a good one. That’ll last a few months or a year maybe but not much longer than that.As other negative Reviewers have mentioned this is a very common problem with the ONKYO receivers of today (post pandemic.) even Alexa confirmed this when I asked her if ONKYO had any technical setbacks during the pandemic.Then I asked Alexa if DENON had any technical setback during the pandemic and she said no, they were able to fully weather the storm and procure enough proper proper chips and technology to continue production throughout the pandemic. Their items are highly they trusted not to have any problems.

Onkyo sempre punto di riferimento sia per audio che per video .... per impianti fino a 7.2 e tv con refresh a 120hz 4K o 8kProfessionale ma anche molto intuitivo (con le dovute conoscenze tecnologiche) nella configurazioneOltremodo perfetto per ps5 e Xbox series X (riconosciute immediatamente al max di definizione audio/video dolby atmos & hdr)Ps consiglio i connettori "banana" (presi a parte) perché velocizzate tantissimo il montaggio dei cavi audio (trovate in internet facili istruzioni di montaggio)Connessione Wi-Fi e lan disponibileAggiornamento subito riconosciuto una volta in reteProvato con lettore ultra hd // lettore Blu-ray // lettore dvd e le più conosciute app di streamingRisulta perfetto in ogni situazionePunto molto importante e da non sottovalutare Onkyo è certificato THX (vi posso assicurare che sembra di essere assorbiti dalle onde sonore)Punto di lode al venditore perché il prodotto è arrivato immacolato (perfettamente sigillato e protetto) ...la consegna perfetta

Me atendeu perfeitamente, foi a melhor opção que encontrei para 2 zonas. Realmente a zona 2 pode tocar uma fonte diferente (Spotify por ex) enquanto se vê um filme na zona principal, e ainda com ajustes de volume independentes. O app da Onkyo é meio confuso de entender mas nada que algum tempo depois você consiga usar bem. É possÃvel ajustar os volumes pelo App, muito prático. Só senti falta do Youtube Music nele. Recomendo.
