5.0 out of 5 stars A highly underrated receiver, June 17, 2005

If you are looking for an old fashioned receiver, this is an excellent buy. It is what we old folks used to use 20 or 30 years ago - a solid, dependable unit with enough features for a home audio setup. It has a phono input for those of us who still own turntables, and it also has inputs for a CD player and 2 tape decks (or one tape deck and a graphic equalizer in my case). The remote is a nice feature (we didn't have those things in the old days) and 50 watts per channel is more than enough power to drive most speakers.

I bought this receiver to replace a 20+ year old Onkyo TX 25 and am very happy with my purchase. If you are an aging audiophile like me, this unit will keep the old stereo system pumping for many more years. It is an excellent value.

4.0 out of 5 stars Onkyo TX-8011, Great low-end stereo receiver, January 4, 2006

I don't have a room that can be easily set up for surround sound, so stereo is adequate for me. I wanted a relatively simple stereo receiver with remote to replace my 23-year-old MCS unit.

The TX-8011 has inputs for CD, magnetic phono, and two tapes (one of which receives the input from my TV). You can connect a graphic equalizer, which is not always the case with low end units.

High points: More than enough power for small to moderate sized rooms, and probably for large rooms depending on your speakers. Excellent sound quality for the money. Very easy to operate.

Not-so-high points: FM reception seems rather weak. Unless you have other Onkyo components, about all you can do with the remote is turn the unit on and off, change the input and volume, and cycle through the preset radio stations. Button labels on the remote are too small to read easily. The case on my unit was slightly warped, requiring a shim under one foot to prevent rocking.

Bottom line: Despite the complaints, this is an excellent buy for $125 if it fits your needs.

This receiver is perfect for the budget minded. Plenty of power, quick set up and easy to use.(Has a phono hook up too) Bought mine online at Circuit City for $130. Can't beat it!
