Worked right out of the box

 

I needed a replacement for my Carver 900 stereo amplifier/receiver that I bought in 1987. It was important that I be able to easily connect my legacy phonograph, tape player CD player and my cable box without needing adapters. The Onkyo TX-8050 met...

Sounds awful

 

I hooked these to my wonderful 1970's vintage EPI's that had once been powered by a lovely sounding TEAC receiver. Well, what a disappointment my first Onkyo piece turned out to be. No vocal nuance or layering, this thing is best suited for the scooped...

Lemon - Onkyo unresponsive

 

In less than two years this unit was in shop three times. This last shop visit lasted from early July to today - Aug 19. Kurt note that I should "try to connect the Ethernet cable directly from the MODEM to the RECEIVER." The unit has always been...

Very nice but using app is a must

 

The receiver performs to my expectations, but using pandora, serius , or internet programming without an Android or iThing app is not really viable due to the receivers limited display. Overall very happy.

Solid receiver at a good value

 

Replaced a higher-end receiver that proved too complicated for my wife to use. In the end it provides similar performance level for her purposes.

Onkyo TX-8050

Better Than Expected

 

This unit is excellent and has more features than I realized when I bought it. Setup was simple and it is mostly intuitive to use. The menu system requires some getting use to and a call to tech support was useful to decode the menu system. Tech...
