 Onkyo TX-SR805 May 17, 2008
Lyle H. Barth (Bettendorf, IA USA)
So far, so good. No problems. DirecTV HD receiver and Xbox 360 hooked up through the receiver to a Samsung LN52A650. No lag or delay in picture or sound. Easy to setup. It does run a bit on the warm side so make sure there is nothing stacked on top of it.
 Video is challenging May 17, 2008
Frustrated with Onkyo
I read all the reviews before purchase so I was forwarned of potential difficulty. Love the audio and built in equalizer setup. Even with repeated calls to help desk, I never was able to connect the Video outputs to my Samsung DLP. I was able to see the set up menu on the TV. I tried both HMI and component video connections on the Onkyo before bailing out and using direct component video cables from by Cable Box and DVD player to the TV. I have a Universal 850 RF remote, so the multiple connections are circumvented by macros.
Amazing receiver! May 14, 2008

It took me a very long time to justify getting a higher end receiver, but in the end, I'm glad I did. There's a little thing called buyer's remorse, and I didn't get it for a second! I was blown away from the beginning. This replaced my older Denon receiver, and everything is much more detailed, and you can really "feel" the volume through my Infinity Beta series speakers now. You can't go wrong with this 7.1 capable, future-proofed receiver.

For $670 & a true 130 watts per channel with all 7 channels active you can't buy a better receiver. With Amazon's $30 discount I got mine for $639 & change. I researched the Onkyo 875 & couldn't justify spending another $360 for a USB port & 10 more watts per channel. Likewise I couldn't justify spending $760 more for HD radio & the 140 watts in the Onkyo 905. But that 905 is a steal at $1,400 with the toridal amp. & I was tempted. Basically I looked at Yamahas, Marantz, Dennons & Onkyo. Came down to Dennon's 2808, 3808 or their 4808 against Onkyo's 705, 805, 875 or 905! The Dennon 2808 & Onkyo 705 just didn't have quite enough power. I decided to try the Onkyo 805 because in several different surveys the 805s were rated # One in the high end, 7 channel, plus 100 watt per channel category. Those surveys included all the receivers I've mentioned & more costing up to +5 grand. After I made that decision I bought a very sturdy stand for TV, cable box, DVD Recorder (which has a USB port) & above all this receiver. I made sure there was a lot of headroom for the "heat factor" which has not been a problem. If the 805 didn't meet my needs I was going to return it & up-grade to the 905 because bottom line, cost was not my primary goal.
The 805 was up to task!
My AV room is aprox. 18 feet by 14 feet. With out a separate amp, I have this thing pushing Polk RTi12s up front, a CSi5 center, two RTi6s rear-surround & waiting on two FXi A6s for surround channels. A Polk DSW Pro 600 provides base for everything under 80 htz. At -10 db it has my speakers smoking. At +5 db it's live & at +10 db there's no distortion what-so-ever & much more sound than I will need. All this while sending crystal clear signal to a Panasonic 50" Plasma. This thing allows me to equalize all channels individually as well as set the volume for each channel individually. I could have spent upwards 10 times for speakers & receiver but I didn't want to buy products just to brag that I owned them. I wanted quality products that would exceed meeting my needs.
I could write volumes on this product but when all's said & done what was most important to me is that when I was finished buying speakers & receiver to compliment the TV, I would have an audio video arrangement that would "never" leave me wishing I had more!!!
Onkyo 805 does it's part & much more!!! SIX STARZ

Yo-
This receiver is an awesome addition to my home entertainment system.
It replaces a Denon 3802 purchased in 2000 for $1200. This bad boy sounds better, looks better, is far easier to set up, has THX Ultra 2 certification, weighs 20 pounds more, has superior speaker jack placement on the back, runs cooler, has HDMI in and out, is much more powerful and cost less than $700 shipped!!!
A lot to like and nothing to not like-eh!!
