Onkyo TX-NR595 review

The TX-NR595 is a 7.2 x 80-watt-per-channel receiver (4 ohms). With six HDMI inputs and dual outputs integrating players, TV, and projector, you’re set for a 4K HDR video experience inside Dolby Atmos or DTS:X sound delivered through any speaker layout. Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer and DTS Virtual:X create an immersive 3D soundfield without height or surround speakers connected, while Dolby Surround and DTS Neural:X add overhead dimensionality to regular soundtracks when played through layouts with height speakers.

The power of this unit is 7.2 x 165 W (6 Ohms). The Onkyo TX-NR686 is THX Select certified. To obtain the most dynamic and rich sound this seven-channel AV receiver is equipped with amplifiers made using Dynamic Audio Amplification technology. Due to the high output current, which is provided including through the use of a custom transformer H.C.P.S. in the power supply, Onkyo TX-NR686 is able to fully swing even 4-ohm speakers. The audio circuit of the device also uses the VLCS system to eliminate high-frequency noise. Onkyo TX-NR686

Onkyo TX-NR686 pros & cons

Pros

  • The graphical on-screen setup instructions look very neat, pretty eye candy
  • The android app works just great. I didn't experience any trouble. It is faster and more functional than the app on the NR535

Cons

  • Was disappointed to find out the “built in chromecast” is audio only. Doesn’t ruin the whole receiver for me, but i feel it should have been stated in the description
