  • Four HDMI inputs; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; upconverts analog signals to 1080i over HDMI output; Sirius-ready; excellent automatic speaker calibration; switches as many as six high-definition video sources; improved remote.
  • Poor video processing limits utility of HDMI upconversion for analog sources; sounds better on movies than with music; no phono input.
  • The Onkyo TX-SR606 offers tons of functionality for the price, but subpar video processing and improved competition means its less of a standout receiver than last years version. Specifications: Product type: AV receiver; Sound output mode: Surround ...

  • Good connectivity with plenty of HDMI sockets, Much improved GUI, Dynamic EQ
  • Not a powerhouse when all channels are driven
  • The worlds hottest AV receiver has had a facelift. After breathing new life into the moribund AVR market with the TX-SR605 last year, Onkyo has returned with a sequel product, the £400 TX-SR606. Familiar stylingA cursory glance would indicate that the...
