Onkyo TX-NR609 7.2 AV Receiver (THX, 4K upscaling, audio streaming, iPhone / iPod via USB) (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have the receiver now, since July (then bought with ner 3 as the leading figure in the price) and have encountered in the use of some good and bad things.
I want to waste any more words on the sound / image transmission, etc. and the existing port facilities. For this purpose has been written a lot on forums and tests. I have the following things noticed that might be interesting to other users:

+ Very good sound
+ Good upscaling the image z. B. TV

- It lacks a digital optical output. This can be useful in some high-quality headphones.
- When I turn on the system (everything connected with HDMI) must be turned on until all HDMI sources / Beamer before I place the Receiver. Otherwise, the signal transmission is not working properly and then drop outs, or / and the image stays away.
- The selector labels of sources should be illuminated. Scripture is very small and not visible in semi-darkness.
- Wi-Fi is not integrated. In order to connect the receiver to the wireless, again around 50 euros have to be spent for the wireless adapter. Should be integrated directly and not yet cost extra money at a 2011 device.
I use the following much cheaper alternative:
150MBit TP-Link TL-WN722N High Gain at a NR609 with the latest firmware. It worked right away !! Is also significantly cheaper!
Registration on a Fritz Box 7390. Via WPS quick connection via push-button method (WPS-PBC, Push Button Configuration)
For setting procedures on NR609 or other one can be geared to the operating instructions of the UWF-1 and enter the local requirements on NR609.
For with that lasted all 30 sec., And I am a layman in this regard!

- Front only plastic
=> For improvement especially in wireless integration. Today should be self-evident to any device
