I checked out all the home theater systems offered by Onkyo and this is certainly the best out there for your bucks. I checked the system out in Fry's before I bought it in amazon. Amazon shipment and delivery was well before on-time and it came in crisp and clean. Wonderful and easy to setup.

Onkyo technical support center was worthless....you are better off, taking a day or two to figure the connections/setup yourself. Not that difficult.

Excellent sound quality...the intelli sound and audyssey auto calibration of speakers is just fabulous.

Enjoy!!!

I purchased this from Crutchfield along with the IPod dock. I play a lot of music DVD's, movies, and listen to IPod music and CD's. I wanted versatility and of course, performance. I did a lot of research and continued to find this system to have the best reviews. The specs looked great too, with a 10" subwoofer that goes down to 25 hz. The other 7 speakers with 3 1/8" dual cone woofers and 1" tweeters have a range of 65hz-35kHz. That's pretty much the entire range a human can hear. And with them being matched and using the automatic set up for the speakers (and awesome feature), coupled with this great receiver make this an absolute joy to listen to. I have a great ear, but a moderate pocket book. I would have loved to see 5" dual woofers that go down a little deeper, making them about as good as anything on the market, but its not really necessary. The full range is represented with the sub and the 7 speakers combined. And you'd be talking about bigger speakers too. By the way, these are not tiny speakers. Maybe some people have problem with that. I'm not one of them. They're small enough for me.

The receiver is top notch. There are many features and you need to study and practice for a while to figure it all out, just like most technology today. But Onkyo has made the intial setup very easy. Basically, you can figure out as much as you want to. It'll perform the basics without any trouble pretty easiy. We were up and running within about an hour or two. I barely read the easy instruction either.

I have my system connected to a standard TV (until I can swing the big boy TV), so I can't comment too much about the DVD player. So far, I feel the functions are good. It's great to have a remote that operates pretty much everything.

The IPod dock connects right along with the rest. Sure, the text looks kinda 1990ish, but who cares?

I would have liked to have seen 16 gauge wire for the entire system. Not a real big deal. After doing plenty of research on this topic as well as personal experience, don't get sucked into buying insanely priced speaker wire that claims to be the best. Look at the wire and make sure it's 16 gauge and seems reputable. You shouldn't need to spend over $[...] for 100 feet. The deal is that the further the speakers are from the unit, the thicker the gauge needs to be. The rear speakers are pushing it with the included wire (for highest potential performance with this system). I think you'd MAYBE hear a little improvement, but I doubt most people even would. I think it's crazy and a total scam to buy $100+ speaker wire. I think $[...] for 2 speaker stands is too (this was offered as an additional item). I can't imagine buying an $[...] system and spending an additional $[...] on that junk. I didn't, I won't, and I'm amazed at how great this system is for the money. Heck, money aside, its a great system! I'm just saying that for $[...] we could obviously do better. But for under $[...], this is great. I highly recommend this system! And I'm going to continue to search for a reasonable flaw to complain about.

This is my first surround system purchase. Overall I am very pleased with it. There are plenty of connections on the back, which is very important to me. The 6-disc DVD player is slow to load but the upconvert of standard DVDs to my 1080p Samsung DLP television via HDMI is nothing short of breathtaking (some of that credit goes to the 'Theatre' setting on the Samsung). Music sounds good, but I find the tweeters are weak and the higher frequencies seem to be missing altogether. Bass from the subwoofer is good, the midrange is a little muddy at times for vocals and dialog but if you just turn it up louder it usually sounds better. I have an Xbox 360 connected and it sounds great. The shipping carton is heavy, very heavy, mine was a little smashed but no damage sustained to the unit. The 6-disc changer is so deep that it hangs out of my TV stand by at least 3 inches - pay attention to the measurements if you have a thin TV, this won't fit nicely beneath it. The HDMI on the reciever is a pass through, it will not upconvert analog connections, so your reciever actually takes up 2 connections on your TV - one HDMI and one analog input. I would recommend this unit, but if you are a true audiophile you will be dissapointed with the speakers.
