    If you are about to set up a surround sound system , are looking into setting up a game system to your surround or you want to know if the ONKYO receiver is any good you are in the right place.
    Alright so I've had this reviewer for a few years and its been moved around and used extensively so this review is fair and tested.
    First of all the surround sound system 5 speakers and a subwoofer.
    The back surround sound speakers should be just above ear height and and at the far back 2 corners of the room. The Centre speaker I installed below my tv onto my wall mount. the front right and left speakers are important and depending on your setup they are adaptable. They can be sit-in on the floor, be attached to the wall or on stands. The subwoofer is an extremely important part that will allow your system to achieve those seriously low tones.

    Solid video. I have a similar 7.1 onkyo receiver. I’m trying to connect a 2.0 or 2.1 speaker set up, but am I losing out on sound effects if the receiver is sending stuff to the center and rears that are non existent? Also I’ve used an RCA to 3.5mm to connect it to my tv.

    Hey, I'm planning tio get a new Onkyo AVR and I have very basic question. Is there some way to save presets of speaker levels? I know that you can modify the volume of each individual speaker with "Adjusting Speaker Levels", but not sure if you can save this to some AVR internal memory and call it when needed (for example, PRESET1 = "L/R 100%, Surround 75%", PRESET2 = "L/R 30%, surround = 20%"). Cheers!

    • @ReviewKingHQ
      @ReviewKingHQ  Рік тому +1

      I’m not 100% sure but your receiver might have a built in memory battery to remember those levels. If not you’ll have to re setup the receiver.

    How would I hook this system up to my projector that has hdmi but not hdmi arc so I can receive picture and sound thru this system and at the same time how could I get it to work if my projector is about 25 ft away from the av receiver. And the surround speaker wires are not long enough to reach back there as well. Plz help 🙏

      I am about to test this myself. Mainly avoiding the HDMI ports on mine as I believe them to be defective. Going to do a hard reset on the receiver and maybe eventually replace some capacitors on the receiver hdmi board. My projector has 2 USB type A ports. I am going to us a USB A - Optic Audio converter directly from projector to receiver to supply my sound. My video will come from PC via HDMI.
