I purchased the Onkyo TX-NR5007 in February 2010 to replace my Onkyo TX-SR806. Going from the 806 to the 5007 was like day and night. The sound from the 5007 is easily the best I’ve heard from any receiver. I work in an electronics store and I hear many units daily from the Denon AVR-4810CI and the Pioneer Elite SC-27 and they, in my opinion, can’t match the Onkyo in terms of sound and features.
The new TX-NR5007 have 192kHz/32bit Burr-Brown DACs, and 4 independent power supplies for better sound. Along with those features for sound, this receiver includes the HQV Reon 1080p upscaling that even makes my HD inputs look better when compared to the Faroudja chip that was in the TX-SR806. For those interested in making the picture look even better, it’s ISF certified and you can use this feature to professionally calibrate day and night picture modes for each input.
The networking features also great. I use Pandora radio a few times a week and am very happy with the quality. I had a problem setting it up though. None of the stations showed up on my internet radio until after I reset the entire receiver. This receiver can also stream music from media servers such as your PC, and it can also play music off of a USB hard drive or thumb drive.
I’m powering Klipsch XF-48′s as the left and right channel, and three Klipsch XL-23′s as a center channel, and left and right surrounds, along with a Definitive Technology Supercube Reference subwoofer (5.1 setup). What’s surprising is that there is still room for four more speakers and one more subwoofer (9.2 setup). If you don’t need a receiver that’s capable of passing through 3D signals (HDMI 1.4), I would recommend that you get this receiver because I’ve never heard one that sounded better especially at this price point. Please make sure you can fit and carry this beast before purchasing though. It is gigantic and it weighs near 60lbs.

When you compare specification amongst receivers, this Onkyo model is unrivaled. Its not an inexpensive receiver by any means, however, if used properly, it can server as the central hub to your entertainment.
When I first received the receiver, I was shocked at how heavy it is. Make sure you have a sturdy entertainment stand/rack for this receiver. Being an I.T. guy by trade, I dove into the manual and all of the features. When attempting a firmware upgrade, I encountered some serious problems. A call was placed to Onkyo support and the tech was able to get me up and running.
Two month update:
This receiver is garbage! I am going to contact Onkyo to see if they will take this back. As one comment mentioned, there are endless clicking noises from the receiver. The funny thing is, I can live with that. My AV equipment is in a closet and the clicks, though audible, are easy to forgive. The big flaws: Whenever the unit loses power, it craps out. Half the menu’s become inaccessible and this is what I initially called Onkyo about. They walked me through doing a factory reset. I have since had to do several of these resets. The real problem here is you have to spend about 30 minutes setting everything back up again. I have a Monster power conditioner hooked to the unit since day 1. On a few occasions, I have had to reset the unit even though power was never compromised.
One day, the receiver just turned off on its own. When I went to turn it back on, it didn’t think there were any speakers attached to it. No sound no matter what. Again a factory reset. I have the latest firmware but the problems are endless.
I love having networked access to the receiver and being able to listen to Pandora. My advice – avoid this receiver at all costs! I am going to contact Onkyo to see if they will take this junk back! Will post updates after I speak with Onkyo.

Shipping was good for super saver. The box which is studier than average showed minimal damage and the unit showed no damage. I upgraded to the latest 2/25/2010 software using a USB stick formated to fat32 and with the .bins in the root as shown in the downloaded how to. Took 5-7 minutes not the the 30 minuted stated in the how to. No problems. Doing this over the net for me is too risky. You really don’t want to muck this.
In spite of noted problems and negative reviews, I purchased the unit anyway. I am quite pleased at this point with the performance and features. The communication between the remote and the receiver froze up a few times, while adjusting the setup settings, requiring me to power off and on the unit. This unit is not for the impatient or those without logical experience. Weight is not an issue since the specifications are available online on Onkyo’s and several forum web pages for anyone who cares to read them. The unit is a little warmer than the Yamaha HTR-5860 it replaces but not nearly enough to be an issue. If one must put the unit in an enclosure I would strongly recommend forced ventilation via fans. There is so much to this receiver that I learn something new about it most every day.
Read and understand the manual.
addendum: “The communication between the remote and the receiver froze up a few times” problem was due to weak batteries. New batteries corrected the problem and the remote functions very well. Love the MyTV, MYmovie and AllOff remote functions.

I purchased this unit back in late June and initially it was an awesome experience, with plenty of power.
I hooked up all nine channels and the sound was clear , articulated and just awesome. This unit does weigh alot so make sure you have enough room to hook up the wiring.
I have no regrets for this purchase, but have been experiencing alot of problems with the Server function, for some reason sometimes the unit doesn’t connect to my server, I have reset my modem and even switched router ports, but ultimately the only thing the works is resetting the unit. This is a pain in the R#$%#$% cos it erases the speaker equalization settings and everything else. I have done this two times in the past two months and its a bit annoying.
After calling Onkyo, they said that if this problem persist it would have to be serviced. I wish they really addressed this problem with a firmware or something.
So if you dont care about the internet compatibility either ignore this function or downgrade to a lower unit in Onkyo series.
This is why i give it a 4, but when it works 100% it’s awesome!
Setup:
oppo blu ray
samsung 40: lcd 120htz.
bose acoustimass 16 and satellites
center and left/right wides: infinity cascades
rears: bose 161′s

Best Receiver I’ve ever owned. It’s the Ultimate!!
The only feature that it lacks is an a/c outlet (switched) on back of unit. The receiver is extremely versatile and fulfills all my power and accessory requirements. I highly recommend this Receiver!
