  • The Onkyo TX-SR805 is an all-around excellent AV receiver with plenty of audiophile appeal, but its less-than-ideal video performance may give HDTV aficionados a reason to hold out for higher-end alternatives.

  • Decodes DTS Master Audio and Dolby TrueHD, very powerful
  • Extremely complex, poor on-screen help, no HD Radio tuner or network capability The Final Word The TX-SR805s can provide some of the best audio youre likely to hear outside a theatre — once youve managed to set it up.

  • Excellent value for money and audio performance, handy video conversion for simpler cabling
  • Could do with an extra HDMI input, weird remote control design
  • Okay, today you cannot purchase a Blu-ray or HD DVD player that will allow you to take full advantage of this receiver. But they will be here within a year, so if youre buying a home theatre receiver today, dont you think it wise to anticipate their ...

  • The Onkyo TX-SR805 is an impressive product. Compared with other receivers in or out of its price range, its a steal. Some audiophiles may sneer at the TX-SR805, because Onkyo is a midtier brand. Its certainly no NAD or Mcintosh, for example. But th...

  • A lot of bang for the buck, Performance transcends expectations
  • No 5.1 analogue inputs or onscreen configuration
  • Onkyo is on a roll. I first realized this some time ago when visiting their HQ in Japan, and discovered for myself the scale, breadth and imagination of the company.Historically, the brand has struggled to find suitable distribution in the UK, and its ...

  • Mit der letzten Receiver-Generation machte Onkyo im Zeitraffer verlorenen Boden im Bildbereich gut, mit aktuellen Modellen wie dem TX-SR805 erhebt Onkyo Anspruch auf eine führende Rolle im Heimkino-Business. Und zwar nicht durch einzelne Features oder ...

  • Sehr gut ausgestattet; dazu kraftvoll und dynamisch und herrlich lebendig
  • Konzentriert sich einen Hauch zu intensiv auf Obertöne
