Welcome to a review of the Onkyo TX-NR929 9.2-Channel Network A/V Receiver. The Onkyo TX-NR929 receiver is a powerhouse, full of all the features current technology has to offer. Set-up and installation is simple, especially when connected to the TV which displays an overlay on your screen to facilitate installation. With built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, the streaming capabilities are endless with an expanded selection of online media streaming services such as Pandora, Rhapsody, iHeart, and Spotify, just to name a few. To maximize your entertainment experience, this receiver is equipped with an astonishing 9 HDMI inputs and 2 HDMI outputs to offer you numerous possibilities to connect all of your devices, including a blu-ray, cable box, gaming console, PC, speakers and any other HDMI compatible device you need. Two HDMI outputs are included for high-definition video in two separate zones. The receiver also has the capability of receiving a large amount of audio files from your smartphone, tablet, PC, and NAS devices using the Onkyo remote app.

The part# for the remote control that comes with this receiver is RC-840M. The remote has a button for every input except for bluetooth, much to the disappointment of many users.

Your movies will truly come alive with 4K upscaling provided you have a 4K compatible TV. Even if you don’t have one now, should you purchase one in the future, this receiver will upscale your blu-rays and videos to 4K resolution to give you the cinematic viewing experience you’re looking for.

Without a doubt, this receiver, although not inexpensive, will fulfill all of your needs with top-notch quality.
