Review on πŸ”₯ Onkyo TX–NR5100: The Ultimate 8K Smart AV Receiver in Black by Tony Wylie

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's been 24 hours and it's not working

Setup was easy. The receiver worked great and sounded great. for 24 hours before it "pops up" and displays an "NG" error, after that it won't do anything. After reading the manual and online documentation, "NG" errors are fatal. The crack was due to an internal component. I checked all the wiring, everything was plugged in properly and not touching or anything. Since my previous receiver was an Onkyo and never had a problem in the ten years I've used it, I've ordered a different one. it is hoped that this is a one-off incident. While it's frustrating, the worst part is that Revain refuses to expedite shipping so outside of OP hours I'll be without a recipient until Friday (it's now Tuesday morning). Because of this I can cancel and book somewhere else. If I place an order through Revain I'll update this review a bit after seeing how the replacement works. PS I immediately paid for a new one and opted for a refund for a dead one rather than going the replacement route so they don't have to wait to get a dead one before sending out a new one to make sure they get it ASAP the new device.

Pros
  • LED and LCD TVs
Cons
  • Some errors
