cheap system, works ok Nov 10, 2008
nice receiver, except for the fact you can't get audio thru the HDMI connections over the system, they are pass-thru to tv only. you have to make seperate connections from your tv's audio out or your input devices to the reciever to hear anything. I'm not an audio expert, but I don't think you really get the full Dolby 7.1 stuff by using the lesser-capable connection methods to the audio receiver. for what it does do, it sounds good.

Onkyo - Oh My Nov 07, 2008
This is a fantastic system. I am using a Samsung 37" 1080P, XBOX, Blu Ray, and my computer on this system. I love it. Loud, crisp and does not run too hot. I bought the onkyo front speaker stands and wall mounts for the rears. This system rock. I bought the Monster wire and clips to replace the standard speaker wire for this unit and the Onkyo wireless module so I can stream Yahoo radio and iTunes to it - Amazing. I never want to leave my house again. If you are 'considering' this unit, GET IT! Simple set up also, the MANUAL explains everything very well.

Like it today, will hate it in the future Oct 27, 2008
If you intend to use this with a DVD player using coax or optical connectors, then this system will be great. The is my current set up and I like the quality of sound and the ease of set up.

But my praise ends there. With the understanding that this unit has HDMI (plastered on the box and on the receiver), I was confident that I would be able to plug the Sony S-350 into the HDMI port and be able to enjoy the lossless format from Dolby. Regardless what the Circuit City sales guy had to say, this system is NOT capable of playing lossless formats. This was confirmed when I called Onkyo technical support.

As an alternative, I thought that I could buy a Blu Ray deck that has analog outputs. I would then connect it to the analog inputs on the receiver. Though you would think that the lossless formats would work, Onkyo technical support insists that it will not produce what I am looking for.

In sum, I suggest that those who are looking to migrate to Blu Ray should consider the HTS-6100 and be ready for the future.

Great price for a great product. Oct 01, 2008
I bought this system with the full knowledge that this receiver does not decode 7.1 HDMI, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD. Where this system really shines is it's outstanding sound quality. Why purchase an AV system that will be obsolete before it's delivered?. The receiver has 7.1 analog inputs for preprocessed signals from your blu-ray player or other 7.1 preprocessed sources. A perfect match to the new inexpensive soon to be released Sony, Panasonic and Samsung Blu-ray players W/7.1 loss-less Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD decoded analog outputs and BD/BD live w/Ethernet connections for on the fly updates to help fight off obsolescence. I would buy this system again today in a heartbeat!

Great Sound, Low Price Sep 22, 2008
If you're looking for a complete solution, this is it. For the price, this delivers some of the best sound available in a complete receiver and speaker package with 7.1 sound! I had it recommended by two different people, one who went to a store and heard it side by side with other systems, and one who is a major audiophile and who has read many reviews on different systems. I didn't have to do any research, but I did go and listen to a few systems before buying, just in case. The system didn't dissapoint. And set-up was very easy. Being a technician, I didn't need help setting the unit up; however, if I was less technically inclined, the color coded wires and easy quick set-up diagrams would have been very helpfull. If you are new to audio and looking for the best 7.1 system under $800, or if you are a seasoned audiophile looking for a good system without a high price tag, this is the stereo for you!
