Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Does a great job for 99.9% of people
I am a guy who is really into gadgets and gizmos.I also appreciate quality electronics and good value.This receiver is probably the best value you will find although I wish it had a few more HDMI inputs.Everything else does exactly as it says it does.

OK, here is a comment of 0.1% of people out there, the amp in this - while adequate - has trouble producing midrange and there is the slightest interference from the transformer.You will have to really be an audiophile to notice ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nice Home Theater receiver
I purchased the 605 because I was on a budget and could not afford a better sounding HT receiver.That said, this is a great product at $600.With some looking, you may be able to pick it up for far lower.Some of the earlier 605 models had HDMI pass through/switching issues, but my model works great sending a 1080p signal from my PS3.
I am a picky audiophile, so I do not recommend music on this.
For movies, this thing blows it up.I have paradigm Titans up front with a PSB center ... Read More

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Very HOT unit....
After lots of research, and some great reviews here on Amazon and the AVS Forum, I decided upon the Onkyo 605 receiver. It has run perfectly and sounded great, however, this thing is so hot, it almost makes you worry about it being a fire hazard.

Just the other day I opened my entertainment unit to watch a movie. My Onkyo was on standby, and even on standby, you could literally have fried an egg on this thing. I'm assuming that it has protection circuitry that cuts the unit off in the ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Top of the line
I bought this receiver about 10 months ago; no complaints what so ever. Combining this receiver with Klipisch speakers and my 52 inch Sony Bravia LCD and PS3; what a combination. The sound delivered by this receiver is outstanding; Great HDMI inputs as well as multiple other inputs for a wide variety uses. Onkyo always delivers high quality receivers, and this one does not disappoint.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Onkyo 605 Popping
I was also cheated by Onkyo to find out that the 605 is a terrible receiver. I bought mine in the US and brought to Brazil where I live. So there is no warranty and no replacement. The popping sound that randomly comes from the speakers is annoying and I am very disapponted with this product. First and last time with Onkyo. Have two other Sony receivers, never had a problem.
