Can you explain what IMAX certified means and what it actually does? From what I understand it plays volumes At reference level or what you would hear at the movie theater. But doesn’t that have to do with the amount of watts a receiver produces? The RZ50 is 120 watts & IMAX enhanced, so how does it differ what another receiver that is 120 watts+ that is not IMAX enhanced? Or is IMAX a format like DTS or Dolby Digital?
I just bought the ONKYO TX RZ840,i have it for 1 week and I'm amazed by the sound , still learning how to deal with it,but so far im in love,my 1ST Onkyo,I hope for the rest of my time in this 🌎
ive had an onkyo for 8 years, amazing stuff! has worked ike a charm
Awesome!
Thanks for this video. Definitely one of the most enjoyable I've watched regarding this marvelous hobby 👍.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey Joe, Imagine a Denon with Dirac? Good lord, that would be a game changer 🙌
Also my first DENON,replaced my stereo Yamaha upstairs room theater,AVR X1700H also my 1st Denon!! happy here
Imagine have this RZ50 and a Kef surround system with the Q750 towers leading the way home? Just amazing!!!
That would be very very nice!
I used Pioneer for over 20 years. Then my last Pioneer blew and I decided to try an ONKYO TS-RN797 9.2 and most likely will be a fan for life!
Rolf is a hunk
The new RZ line is awesome - nut the NR5100 was really cheeped out on - I meant push pins for them speaker connections? Guys, even the outgoing NR595 was not built this was - and less HDMI connections too?
also ran Integra power amps as well
I had a Kuro hooked up to a Onkyo 906 power house what a combination 👌
One thing that I would like to see is an HDMI input on the front aux of all ONKYO av receivers.
yep the beginning is super daunting and frustrating, but after a few hours you get it, its a wonderfullly desgined software
Great video guys. Got a question though. On my Integra DRX 3.4, I'm using all external amps. Question is where do I go to adjust the input level trim for each source? I have Apple TV, Blu Ray, Roku etc. and they all have different input volumes and need to level that out. I have seen this in Denon and Yamaha, but for the life of me I cannot find it in the Integra.
Onkyo THX919 my first av receiver
LG B9,C9 exc oleds are 48 Gig
Onkyo is the only brand I have owned I would love to see them bring back tape loop (Rec out) I have a R2R i use
That would be a blast from the past!@
Onkyo often good solid piece of equipment which often get one of multiple seals of certification THX offers but not always.
I like it too.
Any news on when the Class D3 AVRs SC-LX905 and SC-LX705 will be out?
I bought a used integra drx 5 because of the 2020 eArc problem I've been hearing.
I like the avr but what does accueq really do? It doesn't even show me any graphs or changes it has made like my old pioneer vsx from 2013.
I guess room correction is it weakness. Someone reply if I'm missing something with accueq like a hidden menu? Thanks
Can this unit be setup as a 7.2 surround sound and also 2.2 stereo for music listening, I see on the specs that the Onkyo TX-RZ50 is a 9.2, but a lot of people in UA-cam saying that it can only take one subwoofer?... Can it take two is that what "Double Bass" is?
Please, i need a firmware update with the integration of Auro 3D in the RZTX50.... please please Onkyo
Wish I hadn't missed the live stream! Was awesome! When using pre-outs is the internal amplification turned off? I have a 10 channel amp and don't need any internal amplification. Wondering if they actually turn off, or if it even matters?....
I really need to know the answer to this question as well!! Great question.
When is the release date in the US?
When can we get the Rz50 in USA
I have 2 questions regarding this topic:
1. Do you use accueq prior to the dirac calibration?
2. Does dirac in the onkyo have full bass optimization? If not, how will the integration between the mains and subwoofer work? Because if you set a target curve for the subs, the mains with a rolloff after the crossover point will add to that. Doesn’t that mean the eventual low freq curve will be different than the subwoofer target curve?
1) Its one or the other, not both. 2) Great question. When I get my hands on an Onkyo unit with Dirac I'll report back.
Is it going to be available on Middle East soon ?
I have question is onkyo going make 13,15 or more channel receiver and it’s thx ultra 2? Is the wide channel coming back and work with Dolby atoms? Denon has 15 receiver channel not thx. But I only buy onkyo thx ultra 2 stuff. I wish onkyo keep make pa5000 or pa5001 thx ultra 2 amplifier hard to find. Thank you for listening.
Rolf should have rob’s position in the company because of his history and knowledge of the product
I am hanging out for news on the Pioneer UDP-LX800 and UDP-LX500 and Class D3 AVRs SC-LX905 and SC-LX705.
Ohhh me too. Do you plan to buy one?
@@JilesMcCoy Yes. I am a big multichannel music fan as well as a home theatre enthusiast. I got the Pioneer UDP-LX500 when they came out. When I had issues with the NAD T-778 this year I bought a Pioneer SC-LX704 for a great price. The pair work great together. I am so impressed that I would be keen to upgrade to the UDP-LX800 and the SC-LX905 for the Dirac and a slight audio upgrade.
Hey guys 😊 What I love most with my Pioneer SC-LX 89, is the fact that I can bi-amp the center (have individual amps for left and right 600watts each), and with bi-amp from the class D reciever, it gives 520 watts to my center (on paper at least, but it only has to drive 2 medium surrounds from 100hz up besides the center, so it does deliever).
Another feature I love, is the 6 diferent calibrations I can make and use (base calibrarions with eq and all main settings). I like the flexibility in this reciever, but it is getting old and I do want an atmos setup in the future...
Hope Pioneer will continue with class D amp, and continue to be flexible in the setup 😊🤘😊
From what I can tell, the new Pioneers are basically Onkyos with Class A/B amps.
@@azdonw
So it is the Onkyo that is class D this time?
Class D is what I want, so maybe it is another round wirh Onkyo that is in the future? (I have an older Onkyo too TX-NR 3010).
@@andreemilsen369 Unfortunately, I believe they're both Class A/B.
@@azdonw
Gues that has to be ok then 🤪
I do have 2 xtz A300 (class D) as external amps for my fronts and centers, but they do not colour the sound in any way, so I gues it is really not that important that the rest of the system is class D.
Time will tell🤪 maybe I will go with a processor and external class D amplification all the way....when I win the lottery 🙊
Rolf is a hunk ❤️
What is the difference in the announced RZ70 vs RZ50, besides power and dual subwoofer control? I take it the dual subwoofer control is worth it over the split one channel sub out on the RZ50, correct?
Just get a RZ50 & Mini DSP instead.
@@TheRafcave that’s what I did,rafcave
hello from France, great video ! I have a question: is the TX RZ 50 coming to Europe ? about when ? do you have some informations ? thanks therefore
Check here: eu.onkyo.com/fr-FR Maybe it has the info you need.
Spring 2022 is what Onkyo told me
@@Mike_v_E okay thanks, this is what i thought
It would be nice to have a master file for alll speakers brands in terms of crossover points.
It does it for Klipsch!
@@JilesMcCoy the OP said ALL brands, we know it has Klipsch, and thats cool, but most don't have Klipsch. I have Kef and JL Audio.
@@michael-4k4000 I agree it would be nice.
Love your channel. Looking for some more information
There are so many modes, my question concerns DD, DSur and THX Cinema.
I am wondering why everything sounds "bigger" and the voices out of the center channel sound more clear when I switch to THX Cinema (Dirac off) vs. Dsur (Dirac on)?
DD sounds almost exactly like THX just not as big?
I dont know :-)
Is the mic that comes with Onkyo RZ50 adequate for calibration with Dirac or do you recommend the miniDSP Umik 1?
I assume it is but Ive never used it
When can we can hope to see the RZ50 available? I’ve had mine reserved for months the wait is killing me!
I feel your pain. It’s such a cool unit. Ive not heard of a date yet.
I've seen October 15th as the street date
Spring 2022 in Europe is what they told me
The RZ50 has been out since September
@@Derrik7 where? I'm in Texas. Every website I've looked at says, "Out of Stock"
Does Onyko plan on expanding the klipsch speaker mode to include other speaker brands.
That’s my understanding… but no clue on the realities though.
What speakers pair best with the Onkyo tx rz50?
You can pair almost anything with it… but it does have Klipsch mode specifically.
Why no multi sub?
Hello. I know this is an older video, but I just found it recently. Awesome interview. Can you reach out to these guys to find out what are the real differences between the Onkyo TX-RZ50, Integra DRX-5.4 and Pioneer Elite VSX-LX505 in terms of build quality and amplifier/power supply technology?
A Pioneer rep told me via email that the LX505 uses a different amplifier than the Onkyo, though they are rated the same. Also, the Integra DXR 5.4 is $600 more! What makes it more premium.
I have sent several emails to customer support but they have no answers for me. I want to purchase one of these models, but I want to make an informed decision.
If you can help, thank you.
Hi, John over at Ripewave Audio has 3-5 videos with the information you are looking for (one focuses on HDMI2.1, another on speaker setup/amplification etc), here is a start: ua-cam.com/video/4DaAUxxTZbA/v-deo.html. The are identical in most technical ways, Onkyo seems to be the way to go if you don’t need Creston stuff or 3-4 IR/triggers (Integra) or thinks paying more for not being able to have individual crossovers for speaker channels is a good thing (Pioneer)
Question on the RZ-50, was tinkering with the receiver over the weekend and watched your excellent video again, and am still unsure what is the best setting to leave your receiver in for movies? There are so many different Listening Mode's. I cant imagine anyone actually switched there listening mode every time they watch a different movie or show. Can you help, thanks.
I just use Atmos for everything really.
Which of the 3 brands has the best dac chip in the $1500-2500 price range?
Which 3 brands?
I bought an RZ-50, only to discover that I cannot run the same HDMI Bitstream (arc) audio from my main room TV to Zone 2 (bathroom) or Zone 3.(kitchen and dining room via Preamp). Are there any workarounds? I tried to find an unused audio output (like a tape or VCR out) but there was none to plug my amplifier into. My old JVC had several. I was hoping to be able to listen to the audio from the TV while working in the kitchen and having my meals in the dining room. BTW, I tried switching to PCM via both the receiver to my older Vizio TV, but it muted the speakers in the main room. Help!
Ive never touched a RZ-50 so I dont have answers. Anyone out there know?
I have the Onkyo TX-SR608 which I replaced with the Onkyo NR7100. For some reason the 7100 sounds anemic comparatively? This makes no sense as the AVR was the only thing that changed. Help.....
Shouldnt. Maybe just rerun the setup?
The reason the double bass is off in that setup, is the fact that there are no speakers set to large, then double bass is not available 🤪
8k for streaming would be a nightmare. 4k is more then enough, I have never heard anyone complain about 1080P content. I have perfect eyesight and have a camera that can shoot 8k and will tell you there is no noticeable difference with watching content. Where 8k is helpful is in the mastering and shooting in 8k and being able to crop (zoom in) on an object. 8k will probably never be used for streaming or on disc, its such a large about of information you would probably need 3 or 4 disc's for one movie in 8k and you would not notice the difference. Most if not all regular cable is still 1080p and 720p, doing 4k cable for a sporting event is very expensive and most people probably cant tell the difference. what we need is better 1080p content, most 1080p on cable is downconverted so is 4k. 8k is really unnecessary at any screen size, as the larger the screen the father you need to sit back. Yes you can sit 1' away from an 85" TV and perhaps you may see pixels with 4k, but thats not even close to realistic.
I agree. 8K likely won’t ever be a thing.
Jiles: Why don't you reach out to Rolf & Rob for a Pioneer Laser Disc Player? They could probably pull one off their shelves for you.
Who are they? I’ll google!
Hi Gents, Sen here from Edmonton, Alberta. How can have a good sound with my Onkyo TX-SR393 with KEF Q350, I already got a PYLE PP99 phono pre-amp hook to RELOOP turntable but the sound ain’t still no good. Need your help here please….
Is it bad sound all the time or just with the record player?
Fyi, you don’t need a new hdmi wire to get 120hz. We just received a new PS5 and we’re playing Fortnight at 120hz and we’re using a 15 year old hdmi cable. However, I didn’t try 120hz at 4K, but am assuming it will work as well. We usually have at 1440p on a LG C2 OLED.
The higher resolution will take more bandwidth and require a better cable.
@@JilesMcCoy yea I agree. Will give it a test try to make sure. I just feel like they are always trying to up dell us on wires & equipment we already own, but that’s how it goes. There’s not much advantage to gaming in 4K, your moving so quickly 1440p is more then enough. The 120fps does look more smooth, but to be honest 60fps looks damn good to. Do u know the purpose of these older TVs that have 120hz but don’t have 2.1 and can’t accept 120hz single? What’s the advantage of having 120hz but not being able to accept the 120hz single?
Which model are you talking about?@@michael-4k4000
Probably older Samsung TV's that did a fake 120hz motion processing to a 60hz signal it was a marketing ploy,
Are any of the THX online courses free? BTW, I have the Onkyo TX RZ50 and so far, so good.
Which courses do you mean? The RZ50 is nice!
My rz50 doesnt list every Klipsch reference/reference premier speaker, it list very few actually....
:(
I think 8k is pointless because it only makes sense on a big tv or projector where you have over 100" screen but it costs a couple kidneys to afford. Double bass (LFE+Main) is a naughty setting that is just asking for trouble with your subs and mains canceling each other out, my suggestion is only use if you know the issue you're trying to fix.
However with that said I loved having them on. I honestly had no interest in them until I heard they'd have Dirac and honestly that might be enough to get me into an AVR by them. Still don't really understand the differences between the different brands when comparing similar models.
Dirac is a game changer for sure!
8k isn't even helpful at larger sizes, unless u sit so close u constantly have to move your head to see the screen.
I have noticed that ur videos keep buffering a lot on the 1st day even on steong wifi connection,on my mobile and LG tv,but works fine frm 2nd day...Have anyone else facing same issues
Thanks for the heads up!
Question: should I upgrade my RZ50 to the all new RZ70?
That is a great problem to wonder about :-) Probably only if you need more channels.
Not yet, but my goal is to get to 7.1.4. Does the RZ50 have any other new features besides the extra 2 channels? Really makes the RZ50 a heck of a deal at its current price of around $1200 vs the RZ70 which runs around $3k.
* No Auro-3D or DTS Virtual:X
* Remote could be better
* Extremely hard to find available stock
They do sell out fast!
but I wonder if this wonderful device plays an USB flash drive with video ...?
Or just for audio?
But what about modern devices...? Which one has this option...? especially stream .MKV formats...
I dont know the answer to that. Ive always used external devices to play MKV.
@@JilesMcCoy also an USB ? or HDD...
The only let down on the rz50 is no auro 3d wich is huge let down for me.
What do you use the Auro3d for?
@@JilesMcCoy i up scale almost everyt to auro 3d it just sounds better.
I just got an RZ-50 after doing much research. Had to wait not only for this but for different pieces of my 7.1.4 setup. I have a complaint. I knew I needed an ext amp to get full atmos. After research, I learned that getting a very good ext amp for the front was the way to go because the front stage is the heart. I got an emotiva XPA 3 channel amp thinking that the RZ-50 would handle the remaining 8 channels. Egg in my face when I realized there was no height#2 speaker connector and the zone connectors cannot be assigned. Why would you design something like this? I wasn't going to use the expensive emotiva to run surround speakers. I was forced to purchase a 2nd ext amp in order to accomplish this by pre outing the surr backs and using those as the heights #2. The RZ-50 has processing for 11 channels, and you chose 2 of those channels to be a zone that cannot be assigned to what you need. And nowhere did I here this on any review. I guess most people only use 2 atmos speakers so they don't come across this issue. Had I known this, I would have bought a 4 or 5-channel ext amp instead of having 2 ext amps and 1 avr. I looked and noticed pioneer and onkyo both have this design. Better to charge 4100 more and add the height#2 connector.
I reached out to Onkyo and basically what you have to do for 7.1.4 setup is use pre-amp outputs, external amp to power two surround backs and then use surround back inputs for height 2 channels, from my understanding. This is also explained in the manual, but did confirm this with Onkyo. Hope that helps.
Wouldn’t that mess up the processing and play the wrong speakers?
It makes me think that surround back and Atmos rear are playing the same thing. Almost like they’re making us buy 9.2 receivers when they don’t really have to.
@@NickkaDUB No, through Dirac Live test tones it all played through the correct speakers so their instructions are correct 👍
Sounds wrong to me that an avr needs an external amp for speakers. Only subs should be powered outside of an avr.
@@happypuppy8221 Depends on the speakers and what they need to be pushed so no you don’t always need an extra amp.
The subwoofer is the one that definitely doesn’t need it since most subs have their own amps that are usually matched with what the speaker can handle.
If you have a sub without an amp, yes. I can’t see manufacturers using subs that need far more power to be pushed. Most companies are cheap and undercut where they can instead of giving us more production for the money.
which model can accommodate a 5.1.4 setup?
TX-RZ50 , TX-NR7100, TX-RZ1100, TX-RZ3100, TX-RZ840, TX-NR797
Why no independent sub input's on the RZ50?
Sub inputs?
@@JilesMcCoy Im sorry .I meant independent sub preout"s 1 & 2
@@sg1ds919 It does have 2 sub outs.
@@JilesMcCoy I heard that the 2 inputs are not independent. The Sub channel is one channel split into two.
@@JilesMcCoy their not independent of each other…
Pioneer plasma rocked. Stupid move getting out of the screen world. I dream of what a Pioneer Oled would have been
That would be sweet!
Still alot of people dont know of onkyo at all push the brand big time
I will be creating more content for the brand. Lots of good stuff here.
Hi is Onkyo going to release a new processor
Yes, But I dont have details.

Добрый вечер. Я не по теме, но может подскажите, у меня телевизор+ресивер с подключёнными к нему 9 колонок+сабвуфер, ресивер подключён к телевизору через ARC, к телевизору подключаю жесткий диск через USB 3.0, и проблема в том что не проигрывается дороги DTS:X и долби атмос хотя ресивеи, DTS:X еще как-то начинает играть секунд пять но потом звук пропадает, а долби атмос вообще не воспроизводится. И в чём причина я не знаю. Остальные форматы долби и простой dts проигрывает нормально.
Ресивер onkyo rz730.
