Onkyo TX-RZ900 review

Each of these Onkyo units has 200W of power. However, TX-RZ900 loses in terms of channel quantity. Here we have 7.2 and 9.2. The receiver has passed THX certification and has the appropriate sound modes, along with traditional proprietary digital processing modes. It is possible to play "clear" sound in non-processing mode - Pure Audio. There is a Music Optimizer algorithm, enhanced bass mode and optimized bass mode - PM Bass. Like all Onkyo receivers, the TX-RZ900 has an extended set of interfaces. It has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, DLNA technology and AirPlay. Onkyo TX-RZ900

Onkyo TX-RZ1100 review

The device is made in a massive case with an aluminum front panel, on which all auxiliary controls, as well as connectors are hidden behind a hinged lid. The AV receiver is THX Select 2 Plus certified and has an exceptionally wide range of features. First of all, it is worth noting that the TX-RZ1100 supports the latest object-oriented DTS surround formats: X and Dolby Atmos, with the ability to build the system in 5.2.4 configuration (with two high-altitude channels on the front and rear) or 7.2.4 (when using additional stereo power amplifier). The Onkyo TX-RZ1100 front stereo channels have high-end AK4490 DACs. Onkyo TX-RZ1100
