Onkyo TX-RZ730 review

Compare the above with similar 9.2 AV receiver with THX Certified Select certification, power 9 x 175 W (6 Ohms). Like all new Onkyo AV receiver models, the TX-RZ730 supports DTS Play-Fi technology (in addition to the proprietary Fire Connect), which allows it to be used in multi-room systems for streaming music throughout the house. Other supported wireless technologies include Bluetooth and AirPlay. To sound the second zone in a multiroom based on the AV receiver itself, you can use the acoustic or linear outputs.

Pros

  • Great feature is that you can plug your PC HDMI output (yes, there is a special button for this) through this unit and view the image on your 60" (or higher) monitor or any size
  • The set-up screen is "easy" as these things go

Cons

  • The only audio short-coming of this unit I ran into is that it's audio return channel is the older ARC, not the newer eARC necessary to return Dolby TrueHD (Atmos)
