5.0 out of 5 stars My thoughts on the Onkyo HT-S8409, December 9, 2011

This review is from: Onkyo HT-S8409 7.1-Channel Network A/V Receiver/Speaker Package (Electronics)
I purchased this system to replace my Denon AVR-788 receiver. Onkyo had several models that I looked at, however I decided on this one because it is network capable, has the features I was looking for and is firmware upgradeable. As far as I can tell it uses a 10/100 based NIC. Out of the box and connected to my network I had access to few services, however after completing the update I had access to vTuner, Pandora, Rhapsody, Sirius/XM iRadio, Slacker, Mediafly, Napster iRadio, Spotify, Last.FM, and AUPEO. There is a "My Favorites" feature where you can save up to 40 Internet radio stations. The system suppoprts DLNA certified media servers, Windows Media Player 11 and 12, and Windows Media Connect 2.0.

It can handle the following audio formats, MP3, WMA, WMA lossless, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG and LPCM. I could stream audio files from my PC straight to the receiver or use a plugged in USB device such as a flash drive. I also have a LG N1T1 (1 Terabyte) NAS on my network. I use... Read more

I am not anywhere near an expert on speakers. I wanted to buy my husband a home theatre system to go along with the Sony Bravia XBR55HX929 I bought him as a Christmas surprise, so I started doing a lot of research. Initially, I totally intended to buy one of those rinky dink HTiB sets but after many (10-15) trips into best buy asking 34325543 questions, I decided to spend more money and buy a quality system. What attracted me to this particular set was only the appearance of the speakers themselves. I needed "tall" front speakers due to the design of our set up, and these ones looked really nice. I was quite surprised to find, when I opened the box, that this set it just onkyo's TX-NR609 receiver and their SKS-HT870 speaker set.

There's nothing I can say about this that the reviewer before me hasn't, other than the box it was delivered in is HUGE. I didn't measure it, but I'm 5'6 and it came up to at least my under arms and was about 3 feet wide. Set up was fairly... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product, December 16, 2011

This review is from: Onkyo HT-S8409 7.1-Channel Network A/V Receiver/Speaker Package (Electronics)
I was very impressed with the Entertainment Center. Very easy to hook up! and the built in Network with Pandora and all those internet radio programs work like a champ. The surround sound is very intense and crystal clear for any setup. Regular Cable, Video Games, and even Blu-Ray! all sound fantastic. The sub woofer is actually more gigantic than the picture leads on. Its MASSIVE!!! Sounds Great, and has a super glossy front with a pretty wood finish. Very classy Looking! The Tower speakers are at least 4 ft tall and look very professional and sound terrific! Love everything about this system and Amazon has the best price on all the internet. Even better than NewEgg.
