Reviews are hard to come by on that unit. It seems to be as popular as the JVC flagship.

Here's a general review rating it an 8 out of a possible 10 points.

Onkyo's TX-NR1000 flagship A/V receiver uses card-based plug-in circuit modules like a computer, which customers can specify in advance or order later on to incorporate new technologies. Pretty neat.

It's a 72lb monster. If you're able to spend that kind of dough on a receiver, I'd highly recommend you also look into the Denon 5805 which comes with more power, more channels, and weighs in just less than a century.

No since we did an exhaustive review of the Integra Research RDC-7.1 which is nearly identical except the lack of internal amplifiers.

Thanks for your responses Gene and Buckeyefan 1,

The price is closer to the Denon AVR-4806. The claimed upgradeability
caught my attention and from the specs it seems to be a solid receiver.

I will check the other Onkyo review.
