No frills, good sound,

This review is from: Onkyo TX-8255 Stereo Receiver (Electronics)
This receiver replaced a Sony STR 397 that had a continuous static problem that was never fixed. I gave up on the Sony and bought the Onkyo. I use it to power two Polk tower speakers hooked up to my HDTV and DVD player. The receiver is basic, no frills. Bass, treble and balance controls are on the front panel. There is no loudness control. There are multiple memory settings for music stations. All the standard connections are in the back including an input for an iPod (docking station extra). The tuner works well and has standard scanning for stations. The receiver is rated at 50W per channel. It is plenty adequate for the Polks. The sound is clear and unvarnished. It produces a crisper, cleaner sound than the Sony. For sound reproduction without lots of frills and buttons, this has proved an excellent choice. I am very pleased with the item. Once again, I have to complement Amazon for having excellent pricing and…

The amazing invisible amp., By

I bought this receiver to replace a fine amp, preamp combo that was 25 years old and had served me well (a NAD). So this one has a tuner built in – oh well. I’ll almost never play the radio. But this unit is just amazing. It impresses me as being totally transparent. There is no noise, no hum, no nothing to let me know that I’m listening to a cd, unless the signal is on the cd or other audio source. Either stuff has gotten a lot better in the last 25 years, or my hearing has deteriorated. Heh heh – both are true. I’ve only had it two days, so I know nothing of durability. It’s driving a couple of IMF speakers which are quite power hungry – no sweat, they just sing beautifully.

A Very Good Two Channel Receiver, By
This review is from: Onkyo TX-8255 Stereo Receiver (Electronics)
I would like to offer my own personal opinion regarding my purchase and use of the Onkyo Receiver model TX 8255. Right off the top I must admit that I am more pleased with this receiver than I have ever been with any other receiver I have owned. I go back to the days of tube type components and I have owned a couple of the old style Marantz receivers, a Yamaha and a Harmon Kardon as well as Mackintosh components over the years and all have performed to varying degrees of satisfaction. Each unit had it’s pro and cons as they should. Recently I had an issue with my last receiver and had the problem repaired on a number of occasions but the repair only lasted maybe a year and then I was back to the same problem. I decided that it was time for something else and basically what I wanted was a simple two channel stereo receiver that would power my Paradigm tower speakers and sound decent with no performance issues as well as have a very acceptable AM/FM receiver section. After doing some… |
