Date: 2008-10-14 Very Happy Everything I needed for a small room and simple system. Sounds great with Polk RM688 speakers and sub. Best value as personally determined by extensive research. Date: 2008-10-12 from a seniors perspective over the last 30 years i have had experience with 6 or 7 receivers. this onkyo is by far the best i have enjoyed. the audessey equalizer automatically tuned my speakers for some terrific sound.this is not a complicated setup.the sound maximiser means you don't need to readjust volume levels nearly as often as i had to before.price was very good.much thanks to onkyo,and amazon. Date: 2008-10-09 Great Buy for the price This replaced my older JVC receiver and the difference in sound and its quality is very satisfying. Clear sound can be heard at much lower volume levels than the JVC. In surround sound the quality is great, escpecially at this price. It has HDMI but this lower end model is only a run through, you need an optical cable for the sound which is very good. Can't go wrong with this receiver. Date: 2008-10-06 Dissappointment Despite the many warnings about the HDMI Pass through I purchased this anyway expecting the toslink digital audio cable to pass the 7.1 signal from my PS3. Then I learn that DIGITAL AUDIO CABLE DOES NOT PASS 7.1 it does not have enough bandwitdh to pass more than 5.1. The only way to receive true 7.1 is through HDMI 1.1 or greater and as this receiver only passes through and does not extract audio there is absolutely no way to give this receiver 7.1 surround sound... Yes it may push sound to 7.1 speakers but you are only getting a converted 5.1 signal. WHY EVEN CALL THIS A 7.1 RECEIVER? It's very misleading!!! I allways try and do as much research as possible prior to purchasing any equipment, I should have looked longer before this purchase. It will take some time for me to save more money to purchase a new receiver with HDMI Repeater. Date: 2008-09-19 onkyo-tx-sr506 I am using the receiver as an audio amp to play my digital recorder and guitar through. Works great and came sooner than they said.
