 Great receiver, however Amazon's pricing leaves a bit to be desired August 20, 2010

I really like the receiver. It does everything that I've asked it to do so far.
As for packaging, it's shipped in the Onyko box, with no protective (or privacy) box around it, so anyone who sees the box knows exactly what's in it. Not cool.
A week after I received it, I found it for a lower price (~$100), however since Amazon doesn't post-purchase price match, I'm out of luck.
Shipping was fine via amazon prime, and was received on time.

Bought this receiver in July to go along with my 3D TV. Works great. Paired it with my Polk Audio speakers and sounds great. The sound is crystal clear. I'm no expert but the sound quality blows away the speakers built into the TV. I knew it was going to be the case but it still really impressed me. No issues so far. I love all the HDMI ports. My brother suggested I plug in my sub-woofer directly into the reciever instead of plugging it into a wall outlet. That way, the woofer would turn off when I turned the receiver off. However, there was no outlet on the back of the receiver. I'm sure this was by design but I still found it curious. I also bought the Onkyo DS-A3 Ipod dock. The Ipod Dock is okay, it serves its purpose. However, I'm having trouble displaying the song title on my TV although I could have it hooked up incorrectly.
 A free beta tester's report August 7, 2010

For a $1099 product, Onkyo needs to hire a bunch testers instead of taking advantage of consumers for testing.
1. Network connection issue - keep initializing forever
2. Not working with iPhone 3G OS4.0
3. Not working with iTune m4a files
4. Picky USB connection - ok with Seagate Freeagent Go 500gb drive, but not working with WD Element Portable 500gb drive
Above is my free bug report. For details, go to avsforum. (This is definitely my last time being a free beta tester for Onkyo. I quit.)
Edit: After 08/13/10 firmware update, the network "Now Initializing" issue is NOT fixed. I have to unplug and replug my network cable each time to workaround the "Now Initializing... Forever" bug. However, the sound quality is improved after firmware update though. Better image, deeper sound stage and tighter bass in stereo. More detail and alive in movie.

This is a great receiver...performance, component interface, ease of use, and looks...it has it all.
A lot of power and features for not a lot of money. July 26, 2010

I bought this 135W A/V receiver to power a 5.1 set up with JBL speakers including 890's for the fronts and 830's for the surrounds. I needed the 1.4 HDMI capability to connect with a Samsung 46C8000 and I wanted more power than my prior A/V, a 100W Sony, was capable of delivering because, even though the JBL's are great, they need a lot of juice to bring them in to full blossom.
The set up was easy and the sound clarity, accuracy and other performance criteria were met superbly. The receiver's 1.4 HDMI's 3D performance (Monsters and Aliens) was excellent. On 2D, I ran the first 15 minutes of a BD Master & Commander through the initial battle scene. Holy cow, the cannon balls were hitting me in the chest, my deck (floor) was shaking and shrapnel was flying from every corner of the room.
The Onkyo is pretty big and heavy though, measure your expected positioning carefully.
All things considered, it does a great job and you could spend a lot more and get no better performance.
