Deep clear stereo sound Jul 12, 2010 Very pleased with the stereo sound of this unit.
Deep, clear tones.
AM reception exceptionally weak. Had to buy an AM amplifier.
FM OK.
Stereeo Reciever Jun 28, 2010 This Onkyo reciever is the best value for the money. I chose it because it has phono inputs that allow me to record viyl on to CD and preserve the music.
Very nice stereo receiver Jun 21, 2010 I've had this receiver for about a month now and I'm totally happy with it. It's set up with an old Pioneer 25 disc CD changer, a pair of Polk Monitor 30's and an old-ish Aiwa subwoofer. None of this is high-end, audiophile stuff. If that's what you're looking for then don't try the Onkyo TX-8555 or anything in it's price range. Like another reviewer said, "You get what you pay for."
On the other hand, I ain't no audiophile. I don't have the money. :)
I love my new receiver. I listen to mainly electronic or "techno" types of music, also live worship and alt rock. The receiver definitely pumps out A LOT of bass. The sub is really just to round out the sound not to blow holes in the wall. It works very well for thumping trance with plenty of low-end detail. I hate booty bass hip-hop. Give me clear, clean, melodic bass. TX-8555 FTW!!!
The speakers you connect any receiver to will make all the difference. I got my Polks used for really cheap. They sound better than anything I could find new within my budget. And they sound infinitely better than the mini-system I had before. Later I will experiment with speaker positioning to get a bit more clarity in the low-mid range. Right now I'm really happy with the whole thing.
There is room for expansion on the Onkyo, too. I will connect the audio from my DVD player and probably a computer to it soon. I'm looking at getting an Onkyo iPod dock for the receiver. Yeah, I'm pretty much hooked on this.
Great product Jun 18, 2010 This was a relpacement receiver and what a choice we made. The sound is fantastic and it is great to have one that is so easy to use. I would highly reccommend this receiver to anyone interested in either replacing or purchasing one for the first time.
nice receiver for the money. May 21, 2010 For the money, a great sounding receiver which replaced a 30 year old Marantz. Hated to get rid of it, but this Onkyo sounds sooo sweet. Get it, you wont regret it.

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
