Receiver Network Capability

Onkyo's Hi-Fi revolution gathers pace with the TX-8050. This finely sculpted stereo receiver delivers two channels of audio precision to entertainment spaces where you don't need advanced video processing or multichannel audio. Analog A/V inputs on the TX-8050 are augmented by digital optical and coaxial audio inputs, a Universal Port for Onkyo peripherals, and a front-side USB input for direct digital connection of iPod /iPhone . The receiver's network capability, meanwhile, lets you stream internet radio or play audio from a PC or network audio storage device. Behind the smart aluminum façade lies a massive transformer and large capacitors that provide clean amplification power and help push performance well beyond the norm.

I got rid of my 5.1 system with my TV and I was just looking for a midrange amp for my CD, LP and MP3. Not really used for internet radio, but it was not much more Internet properties that looked pretty interersting. Yes, it changed my outlook on music. I started using Pandora, which is a great service, and the amp is very cleverly designed so that almost all functions of the Web version. You probably want to set up your account and playlists on the computer, but everything is easy to use the amplifier display. Sounds good (coupled with my Polk RTI A1S) and works very well with the Onkyo wireless dongle. So much better than closing your laptop into an AUX port. From my turntables, CD players and MP3 files to try. I am very happy with this. A good product. 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful good sound, and bought by F. Espinosa Functional receiver, this receiver and assigns them with a pair of Paradigm Atoms w / Auralex speaker platforms. It became a bedroom set-up and the device and the speakers are sitting on a dresser 2x. I had expected an average sound and got a lot more. Advantages: 1 Play FLAC on an NTFS USB drive disk. The hard drive I use is 640 GB. It reads the disk relatively quickly (15 sec) and scroll through the folder quickly. 2nd Add the receiver to the network is easy - simply enter your WEP - finished. You can stream to WMP, and with the current program, you Jamcast Spotify, MOG, etc via DLNA. Pandora has MyRhapsody and some other programs already installed on the receiver. Enter your username and password for these services using a dial-up is probably the most demanding effort to speed it up. 3rd Most important of all - it sounds great. I wanted to deal with a lean sound with atoms and Onkyo. However, it really is too hot can be a room carpeted, but it works. The optimizer to play MP3s sound generally works well to smooth the cut MP3 especially those with low bit rate kb Pandora, etc. There is so much you can do in low bit rate transmission. Cons: There are many, but smaller and not recommend a change of heart. None of these problems are related to the sound, but only for convenience. 1. No subwoofer cutting capacity. I do not feel my set-up requires a subwoofer, but it is important to you. 2. Without control of the backlight. 3. Hard drive will not shut down when the receiver is turned off. You will have to unplug USB when finished. 4. The application for Android does not really do much except change the volume and change the entry. Android played songs, but all other options, I see no need for it. It would be nice to connect Spotify MOG, etc., through the Android application Onkyo. 5. Pure Audio, and as the screen again when you change folders, entrance stations, etc. You have to scroll through the audio settings (5 in all) to return to the pure sound after changing an option. In addition, the repeat I was really impressed with the sound esp ~ $ 600 set-up. I have a dedicated listening room with Squeezebox, DAC, SACD, treatment room, turntables, etc. Although this Onkyo + Atom combo can not beat the room set-up dedicated to listening to audio on your computer is really close.
