Why save the best stuff for home theater? Every model in Onkyo's receiver line, starting with the TX-8511, utilizes high-current, low-impedance amplifier design for superior performance. Humbly priced, but made for music fans who appreciate great sound, this is no ordinary stereo receiver. A look inside reveals Onkyo's attention to detail in every aspect of construction. The transformer: oversized and shielded for maximum power capacity and stability, and minimum hum. The filter capacitor is oversized for clean sound during your music's most demanding dynamic peaks.

Author's Review
I purchased this receiver to replace a Pioneer that was about 15 years old. I was very pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of the Onkyo. It is superb. Even my wife, who generally doesn't pay attention to such things, mentioned how great it sounded.

I was looking for a unit without lots of 'bells and whistles' and the Onkyo fits the bill perfectly. It was easy to install and I like the relatively compact size of the unit.

The FM tuner is not as good as I would like it to be. The tuning capability is 'weak'.

Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the receiver. It is a very good value.
