(...) And the results? Fabulous. In the past, Onkyo receivers had a reputation for being just a bit boisterous. But here, the company´s trademark brute force is combined with the finesse of a ballerina and the deadly accuracy of a marksman.
(...) In fact, whatever content you send through the Onkyo, it laps it up with calm confidence. Perhaps surprisingly for one so obviously muscle-bound, it even handles music with aplomb, displaying good timing and masses of detail.
(...) Clearly, the new TX-SR875 is a tremendous all-round receiver: it immediately establishes itself as a rival to the very best.
(...) For: Supremely powerful yet composed sound; a real future-proof feature list.
(...) Verdict: Onkyo is on a roll: this has stunning all-round ability, coupled to bags of tomorrow´s technology.
