The Story
Why save the best stuff for home theater? Every model in Onkyo's receiver line, starting with the TX-8211, utilizes high-current, low-impedance amplifier design for superior performance. Humbly priced, but made for music fans who appreciate great sound, this is no ordinary stereo receiver.
A look inside reveals Onkyo's attention to detail in every aspect of construction. The transformer: oversized and shielded for maximum power capacity and stability, and minimum hum. The filter capacitor: oversized for clean sound during your music's most demanding dynamic peaks. The cast aluminum heat sink: oversized for efficient heat dissipation, and thus longer life from your receiver. Discrete outputs: designed to run cooler, and to keep your music cleaner, under high-volume, low-impedance conditions. Anti-resonant chassis and aluminum front panel: highly rigid to fight distortion-causing resonance.
So how does it sound? In a word: impressive. The TX-8211 drives 50 clean, muscular watts to each of your stereo speakers. Connect up to 4 audio source components (CD-R, cassette, etc.). When you want to listen to radio, use the 30 AM/FM presets or direct access tuning to jump right to desired stations. Get ready for super-clean Onkyo sound!
