I received this as a gift and didn't open the box because I didn't have anywhere to put it until after the 30 days to return to Amazon expired. The CD/DVD drawer on the unit didn't work. I couldn't register the unit with Onkyo (required to get warranty work) because they didn't have a record of the serial number (?). The unit had a date of manufacture of 2005 - it was bought in mid-2007 so this was kind of odd. from Amazon.com Got mine for $93 on clearance at Circuit City who seems to have a policy of dropping everything at least 60% if it hangs around for a year or more. I originally thought of buying it at the previous sale of $199 but was glad I waited and got it for $106 less! This unit replaces a previous Onkyo that still played like a champ but couldn't handle SACD or MP3s, let alone video DVDs. So far, so good. from Amazon.com I recently purchased this and while the components all seem to be very well made, the sound just was not for me. It seemed as though the reproduction of the music was based upon what someone thought I (the public) would like. from Amazon.com I was pretty excited to get this stereo. I've been researching for quite awhile and was very impressed by the reviews of this product and had high expectations, especially with copy from the manufacturer like this: "Imagine turning up the volume and filling your entertainment room with noise-free, impressively powerful, true-to-life sound." So naturally i assumed that i would be getting a stereo that would produce wonderful sound for some of the quiet music i listen to. I like loud, aggressive music and I also love really quiet stuff, too, so i was pretty disappointed when set the Onkyo up and put on a quiet cd (Baird Hersey and Prana, "Eternal Embrace") and in the quiet moments all i could hear was a VERY LOUD disc mechanism spinning the cd. from Amazon.com i owned the previous onkyo for 3 cds. i sold it and bought this one. from Amazon.com First purchase of any Onkyo product. Read many other comments before comitting to this system but very pleased with the obvious quality and very clear sound. from Amazon.com Mainly echo-ing other reviews..for the price the sound quality of this unit is phenomenal . Like other Onkyo products I have bought the sound quality for the low to mid price range is hard to beat . For the price you get a decent pair of mini-bookshelf speakers too . from Amazon.com I bought this product after spending a long time reviewing reviews :-). Initially I was thinking about buying a home theater system with a high end receiver but as my search continued and I got input from some really audio savvy coworkers, I settled on the Onkyo Shelf System. I have to say I am really pleased with the product. from Amazon.com Then, it began turning itself off in the middle of DVD's or even iPod playback, resetting the clock/time and all other settings. At its worst, it would turn off about every 8 to 10 minutes. It spent over 6 weeks in the repair shop under warranty service (about 1/3 of the time that I've owned it), and within 20 minutes of getting it back home, it had the same exact problem. I placed several calls to Onkyo, spent about 20-30 minutes on hold with each call, spoke with people named Don, Ray, and Felicia in their Parts & Service department, and the universal response was to continue to bring it back to the shop, despite the fact that it's a brand new system. from Amazon.com This small micro component is amazing. I know Onkyo is one of great audio makers. This is cheap but surprisingly talented. from Amazon.com
