Product Description
The Onkyo TX-SR576 7.1-Channel High-Definition Home Theater Receiver features Audyssey technologies that let you tailor surround sound to your home and ensure an enveloping soundscape. The TX-SR576 is capable of receiving and switching 1080p video, as well as processing multichannel surround sound via an onboard Dolby Digital Plus decoder. The TX-SR576 offers integrated system control with selected HDMI compatible high-definition displays, DVD and hard-disk recorders, and Blu-ray Disc players. With one remote control, you can control several functions, including Standby, Volume Command and Direct Change. Compressed music loses a substantial amount of bit information at higher frequencies, so the Music Optimizer technology works to overcome this limitation and enhance audio quality. With Powered Zone 2 and a Zone 2 line-out, you can enjoy surround-sound entertainment in the main room while you play back a completely different stereo source in a second zone equipped with an amplifier or a pair of speakers. The TX-SR576 gives you greater flexibility in choosing from a range of speaker packages. Its surround back speaker channels provide the ambience and effects for movies. In effect, bi-amping gives a more powerful, dynamic soundfield for two-channel music and movie sound effects.

 ONKYO TX-SR576 September 16, 2008

It was time for me to replace my 20 Years old AKAY and Herman Kardon receivers.
I went through a selective and analytical study of most commercial units available today in the market, under a define budget of $400.oo
For this price the ONKYO SR576 is top of the line. Good locking, practical,instructions are OK. easy to connect. It dissipates lots of heat, needs a well ventilated area. Sound is superior,Signal reception is very good. Excellent Remote control. connectivity is exellent and has enough range for all my gadgets. The auto speaker calibration is fantastic.
All That And More... August 28, 2008

I was looking to upgrade to an A/V unit with HDMI capability since I had just bought HD LCD TV. I had a Pioneer A/V, purchased in 1990, which had served me extremely well. It was connected to a surround sound system with speakers built into the walls. I started researching and found the ONKYO rated highly in the price range I was targeting.
Since installation it is all its reviews have stated and more.

I bought the TX-SR576 (from Amazon) and a H/K AVR-247 (BB display unit) to ultimately pick one to replace my Onkyo TX-SR501. I got the H/K because I've always wanted a Harman/Kardon AVR and b/c BestBuy sold it to me for $250. I got the Onkyo because the TX-SR501 that I've been using for several years was a real home run in its performance I figured I'd have similar good results. The end result is that the H/K is going back to Best Buy b/c while it sounded very similar to the TX-SR576 (they both sound great), the 576 won out b/c I managed to get better bass from the Onkyo; yes, for those of you who know about this stuff....I DID update the firmware in the H/K. I'm somewhat sad by this b/c I really wanted to keep the H/K, but I can't argue with better overall sound from the Onkyo.
Other things in favor of the Onkyo....simple to set up even without an on-screen display. Setting up the 3...yes T-H-R-E-E HDMI inputs was effortless as was using the microphone to calibrate the settings for my Boston Acoustics speakers.
The TX-SR576 doesn't decode Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD but it will handle multi-channel PCM through each HDMI port.....excellent results with my HDDVD and Blu-ray player. The absence of Dolby True HD and DTS HD onboard decoding isn't a problem, b/c neither of my HD disc players can bitstream lossless audio.....I still get the benefit of lossless audio with multi-channel pcm. I also get 5.1 audio through the HDMI from my Verizon Fios box. It's not remotely as pretty as the H/K, but it works better...it's moron-proof simple to use.
