DTS Neo family with improved flexibility
rich
realistic
and breathtaking sound
a clearer and more expansive sound
supports both of the latest and greatest surround sound technologies
Each are easily accessible through the Onkyo Controller
delivers dynamics that are impressive and have outstanding full-range audio control
wireless modules that manage Bluetooth and Wi-Fi as well
well-built and has its traditional and recognizable design
even and balanced sound and sound
and the transition front the front to the rear channels was done very
very informative and helpful
Quite well with a diverse variety of virtual surround operations
it works well and provides solid performance
Great post and good info
the quality of the sound was good
The effective and powerful sound of the seven amps is also spectacular
top-quality sound and all at a reasonable cost
an amazing impulse response and an impressive yet controlled bass
excellent sound and at a very reasonable price
dynamics on an impressive scale and also has excellent full-range sound control
nice bonus is also an efficient automatic calibration system
It makes fully equipped home theater affordable
powerful and dynamic sound
direct
powerful
and fine-resolution play

certainly not audiophile quality
Important buttons are often no larger than less important buttons
the Bluetooth feature is input only
The remote is genuinely terrible
sound quality
it only works for two boxes
sometimes bulky
heavy
and massive
has no direct replacement in 2019
not the most refined-sounding with music and the bloated remote lacks polish
lack an onboard phono preamp
this unit is unable to connect successfully to bluetooth devices to play sound
streaming options are more difficult to implement than with competitors
The built-in entrances leave nothing to be desired
6 HDMI inputs and 2 HDMI outputs
lacked a bit of suppleness
it is a bit massive and heavy
receiver couldn t do without Hi-Res Audio playback
like big and overcrowded equipment
designs lack in aesthetics compared to other manufacturers
The buttons are a bit on the small side and
Not every one likes a lot of buttons on the controller
a downed internet connection ruined my excellent attitude
broadcast options and implementing apps are more complicated than with contenders
is not distinguished by a sonic nirvana
