Onkyo 7.2CH Network A/V Receiver w/ HDMI 2.0

What a great A/V receiver! This Onkyo receiver delivers in spades. The features are incredible. Great sound from all sources. I was surprised at how well the phono section performed. It was the equal to the phono section in my NAD 3020 amp, and that is saying a lot, since the 3020 is legendary for the high quality of it's phono section. The set-up on the Onkyo is straightforward and relatively quick. I had a little trouble setting up the remote speaker zone and was able to contact Onkyo customer service at 4:00 AM, talk to a tech who actually spoke English, and got the problem solved in a matter of minutes. If this is representative of Onkyo customer service they are top notch! I am running 4 Pioneer BS-22 bookshelf speakers as fronts and surrounds, the matching C-22 as a center and my old faithful Sony sub woofer and the surround sound I am getting is fantastic. I am using 2 Pioneer FS-52 towers in the zone 2 section for listening to vinyl and the Onkyo perfomance is near audiophile quality, much better than you would expect from a $500 A/V amp and a pair of speakers that cost $250. This amp truly gives performance in both video and audio from any and all sources that greatly out- performs it's cost. I would highly and emphatically recommend The Onkyo NR737. Get 'em before their gone. The replacement, the NR 747, costs around $900 with basically the same performance. I don't see how you could get more bang for your buck than the Onkyo TX-NR737. 4K capable, drives inefficient speakers well, 2 remote speaker zones( for speakers in other rooms or speakers dedicated to a different input source), 7 HDMI inputs, 2 HDMI outputs, and a first class phono section for the vinyl enthusiast. Also THX sound and Atmos capable to allow theater quality sound. It's got it all, a receiver that can take you into next gen home entertainment. I am a bit sorry I didn't explore Onkyo products earlier. I assumed the were middle of the road at best but boy, was I wrong. ce
