TX-RZ30 9.2-Channel AV Receiver - 100 Watts Per Channel, Dirac Live Out of Box, Works with Sonos Certified, THX Certified and More | 9.2-channel 8K receiver with Dirac Live and Dolby Atmos for movies, gaming and streaming

This is more that an entry level high performance AVR!! It's a beast! The Dirac Live feature is unreal, the power is unreal and the room for later expanding it with an external amplifier is unmatched at this price point! If you are thinking about upgrading and don't want to spend $1500 or more to do so; stop looking and get this! I have been a Pioneer fan for as long as I can remember before this. They had the power nd build quality to last for years. My oldest one is now a 2. 1 channel set up for listening and PC audio boost. It about 20 years old now. But even with that type of time and not breaking down I still wouldn't go back. To get this type of set up with the Elite line of Pioneer AVRs you would pay 2.5 times as much and maybe get a little over half the features of the Onkyo. Solid purchase for anyone thinking about it. Also, don't fall for the vlogs talking about never buy it because they have an issue...that was a different era for Onkyo, ran by different product management. This one isn't them anymore.

Lots of power for the money and quality audio for a home theater system. This is the first ONKYO amp that I have owned and love it thus far. I do wish that the remote control was backlit.

This AV receiver is great Had it for 6 months and everything working fine absolutely no issues Fantastic sound Makes your Movies come to life the Picture quality is superb very easy to setup and connectivity I did a great deal of research and by far the best value for the price

Sound quality is phenomenal!!! One star due to unit being quirky after only 3 days. Started making an audible annoying clicking sound when switching sources. Drove me crazy. Donated the unit to my brother in law. Purchased the Marantz cinema 70. Very happy with it!

I replaced the Marantz SR6015 with the Onkyo TX RZ30. The Marantz was still working just fine but I watch movies and binge shows 12-15 hrs almost every day and I got it in early 2022 so it's starting to have a lot of mileage on it. I've been trying to find ways to make my system better or get the most out of it (get the best sound) out of it. Been thinking about changing my speakers or maybe getting a DAC so that I can get that hi-res sound. I've been wanting to try out other AVR's but couldn't afford to fork out 3-4 grand on it when the one that I have is doing ok but when Onkyo released the RZ30 and the price they were asking I felt like getting another AVR even with mine still working fine could be achievable. Now, the selling point for me was that it had to have two independent subwoofer outputs which it does. The Marantz has 9 channels and 11 channels of processing but I don't have space in my theater room for 11 speakers so 9 channels will work for me. The wattage is a little lower than the Marantz but I have a 3 channel amplifier for my front stage so I'm good with the wattage. But the icing on the cake is that it comes with full Dirac live. I've been wanting to try that out for a while, I've heard from several reviewers that Dirac live is the best Room calibration software in the world. So when I put it all together I was sold. At this point the RZ30 has been out over a year and I've been hearing good reviews about it and I've had mine for about 2 weeks and I still have some tweaking I need to do but I think I'm gonna like it. I've ran Dirac and I can hear the difference between it and the Marantz but I don't have a laptop or PC at the moment to do the best calibration but using the Dirac phone app does ok but I'm sure it will be a noticeable difference when I get a laptop. I'll come back and update this post when I do.

I use it every day, sound is good, replaced an old Yamaha receiver without changing out anything else, so I suppose Onkyo deserves 4 stars. It mostly works but after several months, the Onkyo began turning itself off if I put a movie on hold for more than 15 minutes (like to take a phone call, go to the bathroom, get some food, other things not safe-for-work). Have attempted setting it up several times now (each time is a bit painful) but cannot get the receiver to stop turning itself off after 15 minutes if I put a movie on hold. I'm living with it, but it is a constant annoyance, especially since it wasn't doing this when I first set it up, nothing equipment wise or update wise changed when it spontaneously arose from the nether regions, but here I am now. On a different note, the 'software update' notes are frightening. Basically, if you apply THEIR update, and it bricks the device, that's on you, not them. Also not to mention (sorry, not sorry) that the entire process is not user friendly, from finding the instructions, to downloading the update, to applying it. Did I mention that if it bricks the device, they take no responsibility. After one year, I haven't applied the update. If I ever need to use the feature that requires the update, I'll report back here.

The RZ30 was purchased as a replacement for an Onkyo NR7100 primarily for independently controlled subwoofer and full line outs for future upgrades to external amplification, but it ended up being a lot more than that considering the performance of this AV receiver. My setup is a fairly simple 4.2.4, but the layout of the room doesn't allow for a full Dirac microphone measurement, so a manual setup works better, and within an hour I was ready to put the RZ30 through its paces. Up first was music, which is where the differences between the NR7100 and the RZ30 is abundantly clear. Whether it was streaming, CD or the turntable, the RZ30 brought a clarity and soundstage that the 7100 couldn't. Listening in stereo mode with the subwoofers or in Pure Audio mode through the Monitor Audio Bronze 200s was pure listening enjoyment. The RZ30's sonic signature is very reminiscent of the older Onkyo Integra line. Moving on to movies, the RZ30 brings everything the 7100 did, although with a bit more clarity and authority. Using a phantom center, the sweet spot has widened somewhat and the placement of sounds is a bit more precise. No matter whether it was Atmos, Dolby Digital, DTS or DTS-X, there was a perceptible improvement. I guess the biggest question for anyone thinking about upgrading from the 7100 to the RZ30 is whether it is worth the money to do so. A lot will depend on what your primary use is and how picky you are about audio. I suspect that most people really wouldn't care which receiver was playing, especially if it's used primarily for movies. In my case, I generally use my audio gear for music more often than I do for movies, and the RZ30 has a very audible advantage here. I also need to address one final thing here, despite the RZ30 and the 7100 having identical power ratings, the RZ30 runs quite a bit hotter. While this is not going to be a problem in most places, if you have a more confined cabinet where air movement is a problem, an AV cooling fan would be a prudent addition.

So far so good.fully 4k hdmi,wifi lots of inputs.liked the accu room measuring.really helps if your sitting close to the satellites.it sets volume lower

Onkyo es una excelente marca de equipos de AV, este Reciever, tiene un magnífico desempeño, lo tengo operando en una estancia de 9X4 m, en la modalidad de 7.1.2 con altavoces dolby en las frontales, y el efecto es SORPRENDENTE!; cuando escuchas una fuente dolby Atmos, la inmersión es inmediata. Altamente recomendable!

Eu já sou usuário Onkyo ha tempo. Gosto dos equipamentos, principalmente por sua relação custo benefício, são muitos os recursos implementados. Este especificamente que é um equipamento superior ao meu antigo, está me atendendo excelentemente bem.
