I treated myself to the system as an early Christmas gift, and can now mainly positive news after nearly a week use. The design and the processing makes a very high-quality impression, only the remote control looks a bit cheap. The sound is really good considering the small size, but could in the midrange better sein.Da urges the use of a Center Speaker formally auf.So I operate the system now, in 3.1 I Setup.Kann really only every empfehlen.Man the time should take the experimenting rich settings to werden.Natürlich rewarded with the best possible sound lag here comparisons with "full-grown" systems, often 2 to triple kosten.In its class but I would like the Onkyo system described as unrivaled. Connecting is simple, I have the system using High Speed HDMI cables Amazon with the TV or the Blu-Ray player with the verbunden.Zusammen Speaker cables is created but a relatively thick cable harness and free up the subwoofer to buy a cable duct is advisable. In HDMI passthrough mode, called Onkyo RIHD, can be all connected devices with the TV remote control steuern.Zumindest the basic functions and only if the device also RIHD but compatible with the newer devices sind.Ist the Fall.Die names but are herstellerspezifisch.Einfach times for terms such as "Smart Link" or "Simplink" schauen.Wenn all devices are compatible in any case a very convenient operation possible. Now I would like to mention who the system cost the 5th star on the negative points. As would the system fan, not pushy loud, but at a lower volume and silent movie scenes wahrnehmbar.Hier could Onkyo nachbessern.Zumal the exiting air, even after prolonged operation, not even lukewarm. Now for the energy consumption, in this day and age very important Punkt.Und exactly where I see the biggest shortcoming. During operation in the 3.1 setup with average volume my meter displays 38 Watt an.Das I find absolutely fine. The situation is different in HDMI passthrough mode, the probably most users for reasons of operating convenience wählen.Im standby (orange LED) consumes the system 10 watts. The other manufacturers can besser.Möchte to the power-saving standby less than 1 watt (red diode) must be dispensed with RIHD mode and thus to the great ease of use. This waiver could then be offset by the acquisition of a learnable remote control. Maybe you will want other users who have a meter, their experiences mitteilen.Ich'll contact in the matter also Onkyo. In sum, it is a good system which I did not purchase bereue.Man must decide which one important ist.Maximaler ease or minimal energy consumption. Perfect would be both zusammen.Aber what is perfect?
