Onkyo TX-NR6100, 7.2-Channel THX Certified AV Receiver
I've long admired Onkyo for their lineup of high-performance, high-value home theater receivers. In fact, the last receiver that I owned was an Onkyo and it performed beyond its price tag. I believe you can expect something similar from the feature-packed TX-NR6100, which offers THX certification, the latest video game processing technology, and some cool ways to listen to music.
Advanced video processing for movies and more
Onkyo equipped the TX-NR6100 with the latest video technology. Three of its six HDMI inputs support crisp 4K/120 video content — perfect for high-quality sources like a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player, an Apple TV, or your next-gen gaming system. (The other three inputs support 4K/60 video content.)
Play music from a slew of sources
The TX-NR6100 lets you stream tunes from your phone or tablet via Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, or Chromecast built-in. You can also play your collection of digital music files over your Wi-Fi network, or use the built-in phono input for your turntable. You can even play high-resolution tracks from a USB drive.
My favorite music feature of the 'NR6100? Bluetooth transmission to wireless headphones, which lets you watch TV or listen to music without waking up anyone else in the house (night owls, rejoice!).
