Returning member with new gear!!!
Hey all! Been a while since i was last on here been busy moving into my own place aswell as other things. But enough of that, Lets talk about some Home Audio? :T
After moving into my new place, it vastly improved my choices in the home audio market, but being on a budget after moving kinda restricts things.
I used to own an ollddd PYE Amp, it did the job, but nothing like todays gear.
I've always longed to own an Onkyo system so i started browsing on the internet there wasnt much that took my eye, so i went into my local town about a month ago now, and took a stroll in the Sony store (weird i know) i had a look around and they had alott of gear in there! but nothing my wallet could afford, until i saw there selection (all of 3) Onkyo surround systems.
I found one that not only looked the part and had the spec aswell, but it was going for a stupid price! £400 down from £799!
Its an Onkyo HT-R538 with the 5.1 speaker setup, and its hands down. the best thing iver ever brought..! I thought my last system sounded clear and pure, but this? its in a completely different league! The sound as it comes out of the factory is as good as live music, it hits all the highs, the mids and the lows, thanks to its Onkyo 120w pre amped subwoofer.
Theres so many settings to be played with, making it ideal for setting up in awkward shaped/sized rooms.
Its capable of 'in 3 out 1' HDMI (ARC, 3D) , Dolby trueHD, HD surround for Blu-ray, and a music optimzer button, which from what i can tell has no function atall.
my fingers are getting a bit sore now, so ill leave it at that and upload some pictures and let the critics decide.
Thanks, jon.
