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. The cast aluminum heat sink is oversized for efficient heat dissipation, and thus longer life from your receiver. Discrete outputs are designed to run cooler, and to keep your music cleaner, under high-volume, low-impedance conditions. Anti-resonant chassis and aluminum front panel are highly rigid to fight distortion-causing resonance. So how does it sound? In a word: impressive.

Pros: Clean,powerful unit- with no bells or whistles.
Cons: No lighted switches i.e. for cd/turner ect...
The Bottom Line:
Simple, powerful unit, that provides excellent sound and power for the price.
I purchase this receiver on E-bay approximately 6 months ago. I bought this unit after reviewing many receivers/and testing them out at local stereo stores.
I purchased this receiver to play pure simple Stereo music, CD's, and internet radio stations from my computer.
The Unit is a heavy,solid unit, with no fancy lights or graphs to bother you. All connections, knobs, and buttons are clearly marked and easy to use.
You can use this receiver as a multi-room unit, and play two sets of speakers at the same time. It comes with a fairly simple remote control,which I haven't used as of yet.
The clarity of this unit is super! It provides 100 watts per channel, which is more than most Average users will ever need for there listening habits.
Onkyo has again built a simple, direct unit for the average consumer that outperforms many much more expensive systems with fancy names on them.
