Why it's a best pick:
One of the best values in high-end receivers, the Onkyo TX-SR906 packs the performance and features found on much more expensive receivers. This THX Ultra 2 Certified receiver delivers an impressive 145 WPC and includes the Silicon Optix Reon-VX HQV video processor for upconverting analog sources to 1080p. The Onkyo is absolutely feature packed with 4 HDMI inputs and 2 outputs, a built-in HD Radio tuner, an Ethernet port for streaming music from your PC and a front-panel USB port. It also supports decoding for the newer high-resolution soundtracks including Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio and features the THX volume control technology found on the more expensive RX-Z11. While the TX-SR906 can’t quite match the audio or video performance of the Denon AVR-5308CI or Yamaha RX-Z11, it comes fairly close and sells for thousands less. It’s also easier to setup and calibrate because of the Audyssey Laboratories' MultEQ technology. If you’re looking to save even more money, the Onkyo TX-SR876 offers similar performance but is slightly less powerful (140 watts per channel) and lacks networking features.
