I have a fairly small living room but the sound quality on all devices that I have connected (Sat TV, DVD, Music, and XBOX) is great.

Because I love it so much I purchased another one for my daughter and you have to set up the speakers according to directions with a good seperation to get the full effect of the Wide range of quality that this unit can deliver Great Value. Brian

ONKYO HT-S5500 7.1 Channel Home Theater..this is excellent unit, clear sound, very silent when no sound signal input received, no hiss, the house is shaking when i enjoy the sound & adjust in a higher Volume ( which my sister always complained..hahaha), there are lot of option for sound/video input, actually I set up a home theater in my room.. I hang a projector on the ceiling/ WD streaming player/ DVD player/ Tablet/ mini PC/outdoor antenna (no need cable subscription bec. i can watch what i want in streaming player & tablet will do. & unlimited movie on NETFLIX ($7.99/mth) & lot of choices pandora etc.(in addition a can listen radio station from my home country audio come out in ONKYO) all connected to ONKYO...one of the nice thing i want is the sound on TV in projector come out in ONKYO home theater, even you watch news/sports/movie..you got spectacular sound like watching live sports..sound option like home theater, TV logic/mono/direct/ neo cinema etc..before i went to sleep, i tuned to FM(Delilah station 106.7) it turn off automatically...sleep timer.other option i did not discover yet..

The sound quality is pretty good. It is not as good as if you were listening to a cd or directly off of a USB, but if you have your song list on your phone you should be quite happy with it. I use mine daily and I am extremely happy with it.

I think so, but if you are making copies of classical music, or something that requires exceptional sound quality, you may not like the results. I made copies of tapes to enter into my ipod and the sound quality if okay

I don't use devices which allow my making that comparison, however just listening, I'm satisfied. The frequency response seems flat with no noticeable distortion. I don't feel I'm compromising sound for convenience.

I think the sound is really good, it is enhanced by software but you can enjoy it. Obviusly it has not so much power, it is just a tablet, but the quality is good.

Very similar but I think the sound quality is a bit tinny. I tried listening to music, but rather use my earbuds.

Yes, for me it is excellent. I am loving mine. It does not have quite as much volume as I would like sometimes, but I listen to my music too loud anyway and the sound is good.

Actually on Windows, I convert my CD's to mp3 using the included Microsoft Media Player. Under the "rip music" tab in the preference you can select the format as "mp3" and dial up the "Audio Quality" to as much as 320 bps. Once set in preferences it runs automatically every time I stick in a CD. You don't need to add software to do this. For me the sound quality seem great ... but do note I am no longer a young person and my hearing is not what it used to be ... so this particular part of my opinion should be taken with that in mind.

None yet. Given I've had it only a few days. I tested it out with a few different songs, rap, and rock to test the different levels, and so far so good. The best sound that I got from it was from any blu ray movie that was playing, it sounds better than the television (which is still awesome).

Yes to both questions. However, the screen is not too good & its ability to make playlists is horrible. Sound on flac & hi-rez flac is excellent, but if you want to play mostly mp3s, you're better off with an mp3 player with a better interface I wish I had waited for a better player like the upcoming PONO this Fall.

No, the sound quality was fine for me even after I loaded the tracks onto my ipod. I'm now pregnant with my second baby and have loaded the tracks onto my Android phone and tablet. The sound quality is still good.

I'm no audiophile, but I've only heard a distinct drop in quality on my phone. At my computer, streaming music through Google Play, though, it's identical to my ears.

I don't know for sure. It sounds good, doesn't sound like anything is missing from the music.

The low end is pretty good, its able to carry most of the sound without distorting the original quality so it should work well for your musical tastes!

Sound quality is actually pretty good. I watch movies on mine all the time, and I would recommend this product.

Kind of a broad statement but overall id say yes. The difference between mix level and rec trim tripped me up a bit at first But its pretty simple and straightforward. Menus can be deep and confusing but the surface functionality is pretty straight forwad, Its not "audio for dummies" but take it out play with it in a day or 2 you should be fine.

About 2.5 hrs of music per gb at 128 kbps (mp3). Roughly half that for very high quality music (256 kbps.)
