I'm a big fan of the Yamaha RX-V6A, so I was curious to see what the step-up RX-A4A brings to the table. The addition of Dirac Live adds its own complexities in setup - please, only use the Onkyo Controller mobile app in combination with the supplied microphone - but doing so rewards with a highly involving performance.īe aware the Onkyo is often out of stock, but as an alternative the Yamaha RX-A4 is even better with movies.

The TX-RZ50's performance was excellent whether listening to streamed music, or watching a movie: I hadn't heard Dolby Atmos sound this convincing in a long time. It also has two-way Bluetooth for streaming as well as listening on wireless headphones. What improvements does the $1,600 TX-RZ50 offer over the $800 TX-NR6100? Firstly, it offers double the number of 8K compatible inputs (six versus three) plus it boasts more power (120 watts versus 100 watts). On that point, being able to request songs directly from Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa is a real boon. Like its budget-oriented label mate, the TX-NR6100, it's stacked with features including the audiophile-level calibration called Dirac Live, as well as the best streaming suite offered in an AV receiver.

Onkyo's TX-RZ50 is a perfect step-up model for those looking to upgrade their systems for a set of better-quality speakers or to add a turntable.
