The editors didn't like
Not very subtle
Some limitations to streaming services
There's no built-in AirPlay support
So the Onkyo TX-NR609 wouldn't be our top choice if you have an iOS device. It also doesn't sound quite as good as the Pioneer and Denon
Especially using the automatic speaker calibration
Abstract: Lean but Solid While the TX-NR609 isn't especially beefy, it's no lightweight either, weighing in at just under 25 pounds. Inside are seven channels of amplification rated at 100 watts each and featuring three-stage inverted Darlington output circuitry wi...
Great sound, Excellent video upscaling, THX certified, Streams audio from the Internet or your computer,

The Onkyo TX-NR690 has six HDMI inputs and lots of built-in streaming music services, but it lacks AirPlay and doesn't sound quite as good to our ears as some competitors.

Abstract: An affordable price plus a plethora of features providing a superior quality of AV – that's what Onkyo has delivered in its latest TXNR609 AV Receiver. With 6 HDMI ports and an amazing array of built-in networking and streaming features, it comes with a p...
Support de Spotify Premium et des services de streaming, bonnes perforances en stéréo, connectique complète.
Pas de support airplay, son saturé quand le volume est poussé à fond, services audio en streaming pas complètement optimisés.
Le TX-NR609 est un ampli audio/vidéo attrayant qui regorge de fonctionnalités dont le support la 3D, des radios Internet et du service Premium de Spotify....
Spotify et fonctions DLNA intégrées, Configuration multicanal adaptable, Précision de la restitution sonore, Étendue de la connectique, Sortie zone 2 amplifiée
DLNA uniquement pour l'audio, Pas d'entrées et sorties analogiques multicanal, Registre grave un peu court
Le rapport puissance/prix, La spatialisation, des basses puissantes, Procédés Prologic IIz et Audyssey DSX efficaces, Une excellente reproduction des dialogues, La prise en charge réseau et les radios internet, La lecture du FLAC 2.0 à 96 khz / 24 bits, La compatibilité Iphone, iPod ou iPad, La prise en charge native du S.A.CD (DSD), Un Music Optimizer trés efficace, L'upscaling 1080p
Le Bug du postprocessing Qdeo (sur notre modèle), Pas de préamplification 9.2 via PreOut, Lecture des fichiers audio pas très aboutie, Des aigus un peu durs sur de la musique, Un timbre qui manque un peu de chaleur, Une gestion réseau pas très fun, Un service Spotify payant et rudimentaire, Quelques bugs, plantages en UPnP et réseau, Pas d'entrée analogique 7.1, Pas de réglages pour la zone 2
Le test d'aujourd'hui vient compléter les nombreux tests proposés sur AVHD concernant les amplificateurs Onkyo. Pourtant, ce test nous intéressait au plus haut point puisqu'Onkyo troque enfin son scaler Faroudja aux performances en demi-teinte, par un trè...
