  • This is an unboxing overview video of the new 11.2CH Onkyo TX-RZ70 AV receiver (MSRP: $2,800). This thing is a beast, tipping the scales at 50 lbs. With quad rows of heatsinks and a large centralized E-core power supply with a back panel power consumption rating of 1095 watts, this is no ordinary AVR. The Onkyo TX-RZ70 is packed with all the latest audio codecs, including Dolby Atmos, DTS, Auro 3D, and IMAX Enhanced. Dirac Live comes standard with an upgrade path to Dirac Live Bass Control. We will be doing a deep dive into the bench tests and web interface before our formal review, so you can expect further UA-cam coverage and a written review from us on this beastly AV receiver.

    Hey Gene, make sure to update to the latest firmware when you do your testing. They've added AURO3D and Roon Ready support, as well as a dedicated Pre-Amp mode accessible through the web interface (Miscellaneous -> Pre-Amp Mode). You can also adjust the DSP Filter (Sharp, Slow, etc.) under Audio -> Digital Filter. To access the full range of options in the web UI, you need to login with 'ciuser' as both username and password. Looking forward to the review!

    I love seeing Onkyo still doing their thing. I’m fond of their sound quality for 2-ch music listening vs other AVR products out there. I also love their appearance, which is reminiscent of their 1980s receivers I grew up with. When it comes time to replace my TX-NR777 I will probably get an RZ-50 or 70. I do wish they still made matching Blu-Ray players, however. My SP309 is a beautiful match but does not play 4k discs.

So in the front I have a pair of Cerwin Vega AT12's, the rear pair consists of my Klipsch KLF 30's, and a Velodyne sub. This is going to be just to listen to music, not going to be hooked up to any video, so absolutely do not need or want a center channel. I want something just dedicated to, front channel, rear channel, with a sub out. Tried reaching out to ABT electronics, they said all the new stuff, is all 5.1, 7.1, etc, so ?

      Apparently a few years ago they finally fixed their hdmi boards problems but didn't market it as upgraded hdmi boards and try to get customers back. Also recently did bankruptcy as result of not doing that sold off to some of the big groups combined with other top brands. I was never going back, but now if the budget ever allows me I would definitely consider one if they include Dirac built in.

      If you want a basic 11 channel amp there are plenty available. A receiver has many roles and people use them differently so it's cheaper to put in everything and make them all the same way than it is to offer different versions omitting various features to cater to a few tightwads who won't plunk down anyway.
