Onkyo TX-NR575 7.2 Channel Network A/V Receiver

I got this to replace a a 10 year old Pioneer surround receive with just 5.1 surround. My theater was built for 7.1 but it was only running 5.1 My old system did not pass audio through the HDMI so you could not get 7.1 even though it had back channels, those were for 6.1, rarely used in most sound tracks. I was wanting to be able to have Dolby TrueHD 7.1 and Atmos surround so this was a good deal. I paid about 500.00 or more for the pioneer i have 10 years ago and this is way better for half the cost. I love the zone 2 feature which is great to send audio to the game room with one system. The theater will drop the back channels or the height channels to send power to the game room but when you turn the zone two power off the back channels or height come back on. Not an issue to me. You can zone 2 out through rca channels out to a second sound system without loosing back channels but i like simplifying with just one system. I also like the networking aspect, this allows you to stream audio directly to the system with an app and your able to remote control the system with a ios or android app. You can control the volume power and settings etc. with the app, great for when you in zone 2 and not in reach of the receiver in zone 1. Plenty of power and clean audio. I really enjoy having so many HDMI inputs with audio pass through. My old system only had two HDMI's this has 6. My old one would not receive audio you had to use optical cables for 5.1 or 6.1 on that one, 7.1 or 7.2 can only be sent through HDMI. The setup and settings are done through the HDMI to our projector or TV is some people case, and its very easy to navigate. Onkyo made it all make sense. Some setting can be made on the ios app as well and that makes since too. Setup was quick, it first sets up with a wizard when you first turn it on so make sure you have your tv on so you can view the messages. And it steps you through the system as well checking your equipment connections. you can always go back and rerun the setup at anytime. I spent more time connecting wires and cleaning up all the cables than setting up the system to be ready once powered on. Much better upgrade for me and the technology is so much more advanced in 10 years and the price has dropped remarkably. Not sure why some say they dont think its a quality receiver, when i think right the opposite and I'm very in tune with A/V being in the business first hand. Onkyo did not cheap out. The $1,000.00 units folks are talking about, yea you get a great piece of equipment in that range but that's an overkill for most people. If you need simple clean power with some bells and whistles that put out great sound this will get the job done and fairly well.

This receiver works wonders for my game/theater room. The setup is quite easy and felt very fulfilling to say the least. The quality and build are very eye appealing and we'll though. I had no problem connecting my speaker or my sub. This sound is very high quality, setup is quick and easy. The receiver did most of the setup for me, I had to do a few adjustments for my personal tasting, but the devices own calibration was quite nice as well. I use the system in it 7.1 layout. It have yet to try the 5.2.2 or the 7.2, but I can see the the options are readily available for the choosing. The UI is very simple, but not lacking in features. Since my speaker and wires were already run in preparation for the receiver, it only took 15 minutes to connect everything and be up and running. I use the system primary for gaming, I notice no delay from my PS4 inputs to the sreen, not do I notice sound delay. I am overall statistics with this product and loving the sound of my games and movies. I have my personal movie theater in my house now.

I love this receiver I use it for ps3 ps4 off air tv and link to my phone its got good sound but I had to go deep into the menus to find the sound I wanted took a few hours of trial and error The set up mic was nice to get the distances and anomalies sorted out then find the eq menu and modify from there I had to turn my sub up pretty high for it to sound test I use the stereo cross over so the filter on the sub is now set to high as it goes (using both filters causes other issues so I let the onkyo do its job) I have 2 subs 10 and 15 set up after the auto eq was needed quick menu is nice sometimes the center channel is louder for music I am using the 5.2.2 not a true atmos speakers but its definately noticed on good audio tracks not eath shattering but the speakers I am using sre not high $$ yet Pass through works as it should when you want it off changing sources sometimes results in having to turn it off then on and it resumes sound but its minor for all the audio features 7.2 is fun too its nice to have choices and new things to try not sure which will be the final setup theree is more than enough options to get the sound you want I prefer a little more bass than the auto eq and its easy to find once you take a little time no buyers remorse I am pretty happy

This does everything I need from an av receiver. Setup was a breeze, took less than an hour from taking it out of the box to having it fully dialed in. Everything just worked right out of the box The sound is fantastic and has plenty of power for my 5.0 speaker setup, 4 Klipsch KG1.2 with a Klipsch KV2 Center speaker which is voice matched to the KG1.2s. I just set the speakers to full and turned off the subs, I don't need them. Then I ran the setup with the mic and that was that. The DAC in this receiver is really great, I listen to my music with all channel stereo now. There is no loss of quality compared to my high end DACs playing through the receiver in stereo and I get a fabulous soundstage. I have about 10,000 FLAC files on a Linux computer with minidlna and I was a little worried that the 575 would not find them because of all the blah blah blah about Windows Media Player but it seems it will work with any DLNA server. It found all my music files and their tags, Artist, Album Genre, and recently added, which is great. I just need to figure out the playlist stuff. It also sounds great with every audio format my Shield TV and cable box could throw at it from DD to DTS Master Audio. If you get this receiver definitely get the Onkyo Connect app, it is much faster than the remote for some things but is missing a few minor functions. Also. go to the Onkyo site and download the advanced manual. It has a lot of stuff you need to know.

A couple reasons for the 5 stars: I like the pass-through in mini player mode. I like the subwoofer level. The bass mix is always right, at any volume, (except volumes low enough that the sub auto shuts off). The network capability is one reason I got this Onyko receiver. I was a bit wary of going from an Onkyo WRAT to the newer Dynamic Audio Amplification. I think the audio quality is great for this price point. In order to get the last 0.5% of better audio you have to spend quadruple the amount, so I'm an entry-level receiver person. I did spend on speakers, built my own. The FM tuning section is as good as it gets, and you need to orient the antenna right. Since I rarely listen to FM, I laid my antenna along the baseboard. I like the new way of accessing the sound modes and the tone controls. I tried the Onkyo controller app for Android, and I was disconcerted, because the phone took over, as soon as Bluetooth was received by the Receiver. I was listening to network Pandora radio at the time. It switched when the Bluetooth signal was sensed. The first pic shows the mini player, what it looks like when using the monitor for another source.

I really like the sound quality and the bass really!! Seems to have improved with this receiver! I like the fact that’s I have all these HDMI channels to play with and the beautiful setup feature.... BUT!!! What I really HATE!! About this receiver is!!! The Bluetooth! It never works!!! The first time it stopped working was about three days after I initially set it up! I figured out it needed a firm update and then it worked again! For a very short while before it stoped working again. then I got it to work again... for another short while and so far. .. .. it’s been nothing but a struggle getting my phone to pair with it!! I hate it!! I tried updates, resetting devices! .. I never had this much trouble dealing with any!! Bluetooth device ever. I haven’t been able to connect to Bluetooth for over a month now.. and there is no firmware update I’ve seen since. And when I say Bluetooth..... it also means the net apps included such as Spotify and other music streaming apps. They don’t work as well.. I don’t know what the problem is.. but I really wish it would all run smoothly.. kinda bummed out. I owned an older Onkyo for about 5 years before this one, until It gave out. Today I finally had enough of this Bluetooth feature... it doesn’t work properly! You will see your device name along the receivers screen, but you will hear nothing.

Received on time and in good condition. As to the receiver itself: it exceeds my expectations. Plenty of power, more inputs than I can see myself ever using, and that big volume knob has good resistance and just feels good in the hand! Note that most settings, including the ability to even use zone two audio, require a TV to navigate through the settings. For most, this is no big deal, however I was using the unit without a TV for a few weeks and couldn't figure out how to get zone two working until I read online that it's in the initial TV setup. Once you set up the wifi, Onkyo has an app called "Onkyo Controller" which, for my use, changed the game. From the other room (on the same wifi network), I can change the volume, input, and even turn the unit on and off. I hadn't read about this feature in advance, so I was pleasantly surprised! From an aesthetic standpoint, the receiver is minimalist and clean: perfect for my taste. It's rather large, and gets warm on top, so plan accordingly. It is clearly marked on top as such, and never gets too hot in my use. All in all, a solid receiver. Five stars, exceeded my expectations.

Stay away from this one--and you might want to stay away from Onkyo entirely! It sounds great when it works, which is rare. I've hooked up an Oppo BPD93 to the amp , and it plays back just fine until you turn the TV on--then everything goes silent. You can see the image on the screen, but no sound. Tried a Marantz DVD/SACD/DVD-A player--exact same problem. Called tech support; they told me my TV and/or my blu-ray player had failed. I pointed out to them that if I bypassed the amp, everything worked just fine going straight into the TV. They then recommended that I do a factory reset on the unit, which I did. Set everything back up. No sound through the Oppo or the Marantz. Called back. They said replace the cables. I did. No sound still. Then I programmed the remote to set up Zone 2, and the remote no longer functions with the receiver. Called Onkyo again. They recommended I remove the batteries and leave them out for a few minutes, then retry it. Still doesn't work. they they recommended I do the same steps I've done a dozen times before (hold down the Mode button and the Main button for 3 seconds until the remote flashes red), but still no control. A truly wretched piece of misbegotten electronics. I am sure I will have to buy another receiver (from a different manufacturer) to get everything to work.

Excelente equipo de audio, ya me habían recomendado la marca ONKYO, lo conecté con un home theater Martín Logan 5.1 y dos back surround Boston Acoustics para configurarlo a 7.1 Canales de verdad! excelente la calidad y potencia de audio que proporciona! A parte la función Bluetooth, WiFi, NET, etc, ayuda mucho, la logística de envío fue muy rápida, tal como lo acordado, en general muy buen servicio y el producto es lo que esperaba. Muy buena relación precio / calidad.

Did my research as this model was rated very highly based on performance and flexibility. I can honestly say that I agree with all the positive reviews. Easy to set up, very versatile and more jacks, specifically HDMI than anything else in this price range and quality. Using them with B&W fronts, Polk centre and Klipsh rears - very impressive sound.

a pesar de ser un producto 2017, no pasa nada sus funciones son amables nada complicadas. Realmente hasta el momento muy conforme, espero siga así.

Pros: Sound quality, ease of use, value (on sale) Cons: USB should be on the front. Picked this up for $318 over the "newer version 585" is $498. Arrived in two days. Over the holidays I installed a new pair of Polk in-ceiling speakers as my first rear-channels and was disappointed to discover my previous receiver (Harmon Kardon AVR-10, circa 1998) was obsolete, not supporting 5.1 (just older versions of Dolby surround). The Onkyo was super easy to configure with its included set-up mic. It sounds great through my old Signet front L-R-C and Audio Research powered sub and the new rear in-ceiling speakers. The remote is perfect with just the right amount of controls for selecting the source. Notice the two game buttons: the upper is for HDMI (i.e for the PS4) and the lower for RCA (i.e. for the Wii which we still play). Get yours before they're all gone!

Great product for the price. Only disappointment is the product is ONLY Chromecast AUDIO. It's my fault for not reading into it further, but the built-in Chromecast doesn't include video (which is a bit deceiving when you read "built-in Chromecast").
