Not as clear as it should beNovember 21, 2008 When comparing to a pioneer vx27thx it does not have the sound quality you I would have expected for hdmi connections and 7.1 sound.The clarity was just not there even with a blue ray player.It did not have the crispness or bass for quality sound reproduction even with all klipsch speakers it was not good.The only good thing was the microphone that eases the speaker calibration.Thank God that amazons return policy is THE BEST!!!!!
Great receiver.November 21, 2008 I don't know much about receivers but this ones got everything you could need. 3 HDMI, xm/sirius and a phono stage.
dollar value +November 16, 2008 HAVE ONLY HAD THIS UNIT FOR 30 DAYS AND IT IS VERY SATISFACTORY AND SEEMS TO BE THE BEST $ VALUE. I DO FEEL THAT ONKYO. SHOULD HAVE PROVIDED A MUCH BETTER VENTILATION FAN, AS THE UNIT GETS QUITE HOT. I PURCHASED A FAN THAT I PLACED ON THE TOP OF THE UNIT AND IT HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. INCOMING & OUT GOING CIRCULATION WAS NEEDED!!!!
Great receiverNovember 16, 2008 I got this receiver to work with the Samsung Plasma TV I bought here as well...needless to say, to all who are audiophiles or not, this is the BEST receiver for the money...the functions are out of this world, and it's easy to integrate with all your components...no need to look further or pay more...this is an awesome product!
Maximum Features But Best Used MinimallyOctober 29, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Onkyo 705 receiver does some things extremely well, but does have some weaknesses which stand out. This is a wonderful receiver if you are able to sidestep the weaknesses. STRONG POINTS: (1) Outstanding analogue audio performance - the analogue preamp is clean as a whistle and very natural although not very "warm sounding" if that appeals to you. (2) A huge roster of features - the automated setup is really great. WEAK POINTS: (1) The digital sound processing sounds quite bad in my system - congested and artificial - so you should absolutely try to keep it in "Direct" mode when using analogue inputs. Yamaha DSP is far superior. (2) The remote control is huge, clunky and ergonomically poor. (3) Power output is clean but limited - use the preamp outputs to external amps if at all possible, which will also reduce the heat emitted. (4) The setup menus are confusing, although once you set it up, you hopefully can forget about that. Overall, this is a great receiver if you can stay within its limits.

Sony DAV-IS10 Home Theater System $354.95 - $558.99 from 6 stores. User rating:0.0 out of 5.
The 5.1 channel home-theater-in-a-box system features five tiny speakers - each about the size of a golf ball. The system, matched with a compact, single disc DVD/CD player/receiver, includes a unique subwoofer that helps the tiny speakers create sounds typically reserved for full size speakers.
While the system features small speakers, it packs all the power of conventional home theater-in-a-box systems with 450 watts of total system power (satellite speakers 50W x 5, plus 2-way subwoofer 100W x 2). The system is specially tuned to deliver a natural sound field that takes the focus off the subwoofer while supplementing mid range and lower frequencies.
