derrickdj1 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 It depends on how large your room is and your goals. Atmos speakers sound like fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 With just a little bit of research, it looks like even the then-flagship of the Onk line has the ubiquitous HDMI board problems. I am an Onk fanboy, but I can't recommend any of those affected products, even though Onk has taken responsibility and extended the warranty for older models until 2018. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/90-receivers-amps-processors/1652514-onkyo-acknowledges-failed-units-extending-warrranties-until-2018-a.html Everything else about the 5009 looks great, but unless you can get a steal on the price, just know you are buying a problem child.

Even new with full warranty at $999.99 is crazy. Bill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max2 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 ^ Oh hell yeah. That's where it's at! Yeah it is. If I wasn't on the fence on buying an amp, I would buy this 4520 and move my 4311 downstairs for the wife.
