Description
The TX-SR806 occupies a unique position in the Onkyo line-up. We class it as a mid-range A/V receiver. But with its advanced capabilities and THX Ultra2 Plus certification, it's a worthy challenger for high-end status. Built with high-definition entertainment in mind, the TX-SR806 accommodates up to five HDMI sources that can handle both 1080p video and studio master-quality surround sound. That's more high-def sources than you'll find on any other Onkyo A/V receiver. If that weren't enough, onboard Faroudja DCDi Cinema scales all standard definition sources to 1080p for HDMI output, or to 1080i for component video output. Endowed with the amplification power and dependability expected from an Onkyo A/V receiver, the TX-SR806 stands out as a natural choice for high performance home theater.

Strengths: Sounds good, 5 HDMI's
Weakness: No BTL feature (as advertised on Onkyo's website, feature page), clicking relays & 2 second loss of audio, when program changes audio types, such as cable TV going to & from commercials.
I've had the 806 for 3 months now. I bought it specifically for the BTL feature, as I am still a big stereo fan & have large, power hungry, front speakers. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the manual for setting the receiver up to run BTL. Next I called Onkyo tech support. They informed me that this is a website error. Only the 876 & 906 have BTL. They said that they plan to remove this error,...
Strengths: Great sound, plenty of power, many audio options, fairly easy operation.
Weakness: Runs hot, Onkyo emphasizes need for plenty of ventilation.
I am very happy with the Onkyo. I did a lot of research on the A/V receivers, since it would be the heart of the 7.2 theater system I was assembling, to replace/augment a 5.1 system I put together about 15 years ago. I narrowed my choices to the Onkyo, a Yamaha and a Denon. They had many similar features and specs and all fell in the $800-$1000 price range. They all had some good features the...
Strengths: Multiple setup options
Weakness: Zone 2 output is limited to only analog audio input sources.
This is a high quality AV receiver which integrates easily into any system. Great power and easy setup. Onkyo quality and construction will provide years of enjoyment.
The Onkyo TX-SR806 is a THX Ultra 2 Plus Certified 7.1 channel a/v receiver that supersedes the TX-SR805. It has an expected MSRP of $1099 and mid-August 2008 release date. Upgrades over its predecessor include 5 HDMI inputs and 1080p analog video upscaling. It appears that the TX-SR806 has dropped the Burr-Brown DAC circuitry however it will maintain its 130 watts per channel power...

Weakness: No Burr brown DAC like its predecessor 805
I have owned this unit for two weeks now. I would like to say it is an excellent receiver and reproduces awesome sound! A big difference from what I heard from my old receiver. I tested played a normal CD and a DTS-ES CD. With normal CD and under stereo mode, sound is so balanced and clean and crispy. With DTS-ES CD and under DTS mode, even with 5.1 setup, the surround sound effect from DTS-ES CD...
