5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievable sound... Toasty warm hands, December 22, 2010

This review is from: ONKYO Stereo Receiver TX-8011 Black - REFURBISHED (Electronics)

I've tried most of the receivers on the market. Some are ok for their respective price when it comes to sound quality. But none of them keep your hands warm. At least not at this price point.

This receiver not only sounds like a liquid dream, it also keeps those hands nice and toasty. And we all know the ladies like them hands nice and toasty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crisp two channel sound & easy to use, December 23, 2005

By

I picked the Onkyo TX-8011 up to replace an old 25w/channel JVC I'd used for years. I wanted the remote and a little more power for my Mission 70 bookshelf speakers in the bedroom. The Onkyo's sound is crisp and precise, which is to my liking. The phono jack gives me the option of hooking up my turntable if I feel inspired to play any vinyl. The Mission's 5" woofers weren't putting out bass to my liking, so I hooked up a Yamaha YST-SW215 150w powered sub woofer to top off the system (note that the Onkyo TX-8011 does not have a sub woofer output, so you'll need to buy a sub like the Yamaha that has a speaker line input if you choose to go the sub woofer route.) Bottom line: The Onkyo combined with the Mission bookshelf speakers and the Yamaha sub-woofer provide suberb sound, and I got the whole thing wired in about 15-20 minutes. It's a lot more than I ever thought I'd use in the bedroom (it's hooked up to the TV and DVD player), but find myself popping CD's into the DVD player just to listen to the great blend of trebles, mids and lows from this powerful little system. The 50w/channel Onkyo delivers great sound for a bedroom or apartment, as long as you are OK with staying with two channels. While I chose to add a sub woofer, I think the Onkyo could have driven larger speakers with 8" woofers quite satisfactorily. Strongly recommended, as is the Yamaha sub-woofer as an add-on if you are using bookshelf speakers.

5.0 out of 5 stars nice basic stereo reciever, December 16, 2006

I needed a basic stereo receiver for my Sony MB350 speakers I bought and came across a refurbished TX-8011 for $60 on the internet, what a deal. I couldn't resist so I purchased it, am very happy with the quality of the product. The only con I found was AM reception with the provided antenna was not very good, FM reception was fine. If you want a good stereo receiver and are on a budget this is a good choice.
