Can i use all 4 channels of this with an onkyo tx-nr636? i'm assuming so as long as i have the protection button active?

Hello Rob. Correct, on a 4 channel selector theres no problem, with about 70% of the volume and the protector on ( my suggestion). Problem comes on selectors with 6 channels or more, that will be to much to play at the same time. Remember this Niles SS 4 supports 100 watts RMS p/channel. I hope i answered your question. Best regards.

There are actually 8 ch's 4 right & 4 left. This unit is impedance matching for an 8Ohm load to the amplifier or receiver but will be limited to 100 watts rms per channel. If you need to individually separate volume to speaker pairs then get the unit with volume controls built in. If you need to deliver more power Niles makes an autoformer for high level output SMS-10C rated at 200 watts per channel.

I'm no audio expert, but this is a top-of-the-line unit - I've used it with all four sets of speakers going at once and on high volume

I cannot answer for your TX-NR636, however with my RX-A480 I use all 4 channels, and I do not have the protection button active. I hope this helps.

I don't know that unit but don't see any reason why not. Unit can handle up to 100 watts.

It's a six channel receiver and on this board you only need 4 channels. Just connect all three wire red black and whit to throttle and you only need the signal wires for the rest. Should work just fine.

The Onkyo TX-NR929 has Audyssey MultiEQ XT32. It is considerably more sophisticated than just an equalizer. It can take the nearly flat output of the 929 and manipulate it to compensate for anomalies in both your room and your speakers. Your 636 can do something similar, just not to the degree that the 929 can. Also I wouldn't attribute high frequency performance issues to the 636 first. I would first suspect tweeter or crossover issues in those older 901s.

Yea its compleatly ohk to use the speaker wire you already have. But I would pay attention to the gage wire the onkyo system can handle. Because if you have to thick of speaker wire it won't fit. Plus this is a 7.1 surround sound system if you don't have the 7 speaker wires in you walls your not getting full listing experience.

So after further investigation. The Onkyo 5300 looks even more superior then the Samsung HW-C700 AV Receiver. The remote customizations alone are worth it. It has all the different modes. Paired with a right universal remote (I love my Harmony One) That thing can do some wonders. The Onkyo 5300 looks like a perfect match. Check out the zoomed close up's and see that it has different buttons for modes. Move game. This in essence allows you to setup "Activities" accordingly.Also whats with the weird Sub-In plug on the Samsung is it two?

Check the Onkyo website FAQs for your unit. There is a list of reasons there. It isn't explained well in their manual. Make sure your blu ray isn't doing the decoding and sending a multichannel signal.

Yes, you can choose one of the inputs as a pass through. It will work while the receiver is off.

I would do the manual USB firmware update to be sure. Information on the bottom of: http://www.us.onkyo.com/model.cfm?m=TX-NR616&class;=Receiver&p;=d

In answer to your question. The Onkyo TX-NR828 is rated 130 watts per channel @ 8 ohms, so you would have to connect to speakers that can handle that wattage. The NR828 does have a preamp. output (to another amplifier ) if extra speakers are needed beyond the 7.2 configuration. The only comment I can make about your room size is, my 7.2 setup is in a 15'x15' room and has plenty of volume/power to spare. I would recommend downloading the instruction manual from the ONKYO website for various speaker setup configurations, and specifications, along with a ton of information about this unit. Hope this helps you. Enjoy your quest. In answer to your question. The Onkyo TX-NR828 is rated 130 watts per channel @ 8 ohms, so you would have to connect to speakers that can handle that wattage.

Congrats on your equipment. I am using UPA-200 for stereo only. I love the sound, uncolored and dynamic. Technically you can use front left and Right pre-out on your receiver to connect UPA. I use to have couple Onkyo receivers and i believe they sound similar to Emotiva. But considering 818s power for each channel I do not think you'll have any benefits adding UPA.

1. This AV receiver is made for multiple channels of speakers, and wpc drops with each set you add on. So just on basis of amplifier power the answer is look elsewhere. To get the most out of these speakers you need more power, and if you're only running one channel of speakers you don't need this receiver.2. As has been pointed out in many many reviews, Onkyo TX-NR xxx series of AV receivers have problems.

Please google it. I think you might find something on avsforum.com. If I remember, it has been addressed or will be shortly. Not sure if this applies to specific Onkyo models.

Sorry, can't answer that. The ABX and I are in different locations at the moment and I don't have access to the manual. I'm sure an Onkyo techie would be more than willing to help, however. Good luck.

Have this same problem with Onkyo TX-SR606- tried different codes but can't seem to get any to it properly. Best I can get is to turn receiver off and adjust volume. But will not turn on with remote.Maybe a different code??

I use mine with a regular receiver. I just had to adapt the wires at the receiver.

Hi Tech,I have an Onkyo 606 model (older) and I am able to watch TV without having the surround system on. I am sure this newer model works the same way. Looking at the remote control, it is the same exact remote that I have with the 606. When you want to turn the surround off and just listen to the TV through the tv speakers, just press the receiver button and then the On/Standby (power) button. It takes about 12seconds for the picture to come back on, but the Onkyo will pass the signal through with no problem. You can then watch TV with no surround.Hope this helps.Tom
