The calibration at 3 position I had in the field of the subwoofer be adjusted upwards, but the HK Sub is a powerful guy.
All digital input signals are reliably detected and displayed. However popular the receiver during fast zapping (playback SAT receiver) occasionally silent when the transmitter send a 2 channel signal. Surprisingly, the problem is not with Dolby Digital 5.1 inputs.
In 2 channel playback (Dolby Digital 2.0, Radio, MP3, etc) there are various sound processings available
here I like best DTS Neo 6 and Dolby Prologic II Suround.
When connecting 7 speakers are 7.1 modes. Except in projected stereo sources of contrast to 5.1 at the moment for me, however, is too low to me to worry about the wiring of the additional 2 speakers.
The onscreen menu is not actually required, all settings can be made easily via the receiver display.
Conclusion:
More money you do not spend on an AV receiver for a normal living room.
Plus
+ For calibration / adjustment of clear rich sound
+ Surround effects clear and differentiated
+ 7.1 and Zone 2 / Front High supplied, although not really always needed
Minus
- Stale device design
- Sometimes the Onkyo remains silent during fast zapping (playback SAT receiver)
- He turned up sometime only "loud" (but then the trouble with the neighbors is always inevitable)
