TX-SR804 review [Posted on 2007-07-10]
This is an excellent receiver for the A/V buff for the price. It's loaded with features for handling both audio and video signals. I've got mine hooked up to an Optoma HD72 projector for use in my home theatre. Via the HDMI output the receiver will pass signals of 1080i or 1080p or it can upscale lesser quality signal. This allows you to plug in lower end components and still get good video. But the best way to go with this unit is to buy HDMI compatible equipment to get the best video possible. This is what I did and on the 116 inch screen it truly is awesome. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to build a home theatre on a budget.

Hooked up to RM6800 surround speakers. I put in Master and Commander DVD and was blown away. Great System so far.

I purchased this receiver a while back after months of searching for a receiver that would fit all of my digital needs,and a receiver that would not be obsolete in six months. Let me tell you,this receiver rocks and am I ever glad that I made the decision to purchase the Onkyo TX-SR804 7.1 Channel Up-Converting THX Certified A/V Receiver!First off the price is hard to beat for all that you get what with the HDMI,upconverting, 1080p video,and hdmi upconversion!This unit is a real steal at this price!
I have this receiver connected to all seven channels using my 5.1 surround sound speakers from a Kenwood all in one box surround sound system that I had purchased about 5 years ago! I just added two bigger sized speakers to act as my front left and right speakers, and just moved the old front speakers to the sides, and moved the old side speakers to the rear,and kept the old center speaker and subwoofer to complete the seven speaker array! Boy does this receiver ever sound good. With the THX modes and all of the other choices of sound modes to choose from, you can spend days going through them all trying to figure out which ones sound the best!The HD video quality is just as good as when I had the satellite box connected directly to the television!This receiver will definetly satisfy all of your audio-video needs!!
Plenty of power, crystal clear sound, great features, great price [Posted on 2008-01-15]
For the price, I think the Onkyo TX-SR804S is a great piece of equipment. I use it in a home theater that doubles part-time as a family room for watching TV. The video upconversion and numerous inputs allow me to connect every piece of video and audio equipment I use into the receiver so that I only need only connection to the TV. The sound is crystal clear throughout all volume levels I have tried so far, and there are adequate adjustments for getting exactly the sound I want. The only strange thing I've noticed about the receiver is an occasional faint clicking sound like a relay switching poles. I don't know if this is an electrical discharge of some sort or what, but the sound is unnoticeable except at very low volume levels, and only happens occasionally. There seems to be no interruption to the video and audio produced by the unit.
