Onkyo TX-SR608 - Pros & Cons

Effects are steered excitingly and sited securely
Supremely competitive and capable product
it works very well indeed
dialogue remains smooth and clean
well textured and the vocals clear
easy and painless
the richness of the guitar and vocals were clean and clear
fastest evolving and technologically advanced elements of
performance and functionality
It was reasonably well-balanced
features Dynamic Volume and Dynamic EQ technologies
Dialogue remains lucid and articulate without dominating the sound

iron fist wears a velvet glove
the presentation could prove a little too forward for comfort
there are no AC outlets on the back of the 608
no audio engineer
auto-setup and room correction system
do have a reputation for running a little warm
only to find their display system was broken
There is no multichannel analog input or preamp output
have a 3D TV
Use a poor player
There are only five bands in the frequency EQ
Onkyo appear to have bitten the bullet early on
user is hardly likely to use an expensive player
DB940 sounded constricted
muddled and boring
it doesn't have any network features
sound drops while watching Blu-ray movies
it lacks a USB connector as well as Bluetooth/Wi-Fi
SR608's balance is not particularly volume dependent
