 Fabulous! August 15, 2008

Based on the reviews on Amazon and CNET, I bought this one and I am extremely pleased with the receiver. It's simply superb.
Nice home theater receiver August 3, 2008

This receiver has decent power, tons of inputs, and proper HDMI switching. Speaker calibration is a snap using the included mic. The only minor complaint I have is that it sometimes does not respond to commands from my Harmony 670 remote. I don't know if this is an issue with the Onkyo's remote sensor, or if the Harmony is not doing what it should. Based on previous experience with Onkyo's remote, I suspect the 705 is not getting the remote commands because its sensor seemed to have a fairly narrow field of view.
 It only lasted 1 month August 1, 2008

Price was right, lots of nice features but after a month it stopped passing 1080p video to the tv. Had to send it in to onkyo and it is going to take another month to fix it. Sounds like they're backlogged fixing their junk! I wish I'd bought the Denon!
What More Could I Want? July 31, 2008

I have been into home theater for well over 5 years, but this receiver, my first Onkyo product, has pulled everything together for the first time. The Audyssey system quickly evaluated my listening room with the tiny microphone and arrived at a perfect sounding equalization, balance and matching of my mismatched speakers to where I am really hearing surround at last! Since I am not using all 7.1 channels, Onkyo allows me to re-assign 2 of the amplifiers to bi-amp my front speakers.. how cool is that? And the receiver is able to convert HDMI, component video, composite, and S-video every which way so no component is left out in the cold. If I can figure out how to reconfigure the volume knob to where it doesn't take 5 turns to get up to high volume, I will be totally amazed and satisfied with my purchase!
 Great sound! Not easy to use. July 28, 2008
I was a little bit concerned about buying this receiver because of the burnig and heating problems. Well, I'm using it for a month and meanwhile it's working great. Great sound quality (I installed a package of JBL 5.1 speakers on it). The only problem is the installation menu. Too boring! Too poor. If you know the XMB tool from sony, you will understand what I'm talking about. Sony is way ahead! The configuration could be easier and user friendly.
But in the botton line, it really worth!
