Onkyo TX-NR5100 7.2 Channel Network A/V Receiver (2021), Black (Renewed)

I did a ton of research and landed on this renewed onkyo receiver! Paid under 300 for it to! I love the the height speaker Jack's can be used as Dolby Atmos up firing speakers (check our Klipsch towers or upfire speaker bookshelfs) which is what I'm saving for now.. Or you can use 2 additional read side speakers with the same jack just set up differently in speaker set up section of the settings menu. I have the 2 rears now but will soon have the upfire Dolby Klipsch speakers. I also loved that like my last Yamaha receiver it comes with the microphone that listens and measures the time each speaker takes to get to your ear level/placement and Auto adjusts so that all speakers sound converges at your sitting area at exactly the correct time. It makes a HUGE difference from pre to post set up. It's actually insane how much difference it makes. The settings menu for speaker placement shows a room diagram on the screen to decide where your speakers are and it's just super easy to use and super cool. We LOVE it so far! It's a huge upgrade from my last 1080 receiver and worth every penny. It foes 4k 120hz and can upscale to 8k 60hz in case that becomes the new norm down the road. It's definitely worth trying out for your next home theater upgrade!

There's a lot of AV receivers in this class, but the 5100 is a solid performer. Zero issues, but a fresher look for the app would be welcome.

I was a bit worried about buying a refurbished receiver but the previous 5 star reviews put me at ease. Just to add to them, this item works PERFECTLY! It was a breeze to set up. I wanted to wait a little before giving my review to make sure it held up-well it’s been over 2 months and it’s still working great. Literally 0 issues. Highly recommend if you’re in need for a receiver.

Mal functions

As advertised. Lots of sound options to choose from. I’d say that it may be too many. That might be my only problem. I don’t have tons of time to seek the most perfect sound for each application but if you have the time it is there for you. Sub woofer can be a little overwhelming in some settings and not pronounced in others.

This product was defective after I set it up to replace my unit I bought from Best buy, the subwoofer failed to work. Or should I say the output. This was a refurbished unit. I don't think anyone bothered to look at it

I was worried that it would be questionable. It came well packaged and looks brand new it's connected to 4, r14 klipsh for height and rears, 2 klipsh r51 fronts and a klipsh r-52c center and,klipsh r-120 subwoofer sounds amazing, I hear stuff in movies I never heard before very user friendly and a lot of cool features.

Great product, great sound
