Overview

Perfect harmony between technology and tradition for the TX-NR696, which adapts to any type of home theater configuration and will deliver an emotionally charged listening experience from any sound source, from 3D movie music to vinyl records. The next-generation network amplifier features built-in Chromecast technology, works with Sonos, AirPlay 2 and DTS Play-Fi with streaming services for smooth, scalable multi-room audio mode to support the new 802.11ac high-speed Wi-Fi specification (2x2 MIMO).

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X technologies immerse you in an immersive environment to experience your movies or games in virtual reality, while THX Certified Select guarantees a reference audio experience worthy of a movie theater. If a 5.2.2 channel configuration is not suitable, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer and DTS Virtual:X technologies can recreate a 3D sound environment from a configuration of speakers located on a horizontal plane.

Zone 2 outputs generate multi-source audio amplification technology in two rooms, while a new front L/R pre-out terminal/flexible line-out output allows you to listen to all your music in complete comfort and freedom, wherever you are. Equipped with a suitable DAA amplification system, 4K/60p/HDR HDMI terminals and many other features, this product simply borders on excellence.

User reviews

Philippe

Purchased in 2019, broke down on 10/01/2023. Apparently, according to forums, a known issue with Onkyo. Otherwise, an amplifier offering very good performance, very happy with the sound! Too bad for the rest.

Acheté en 2019, en panne le 01/10/2023. Apparemment d'après les forums, PB connu chez Onkyo. Autrement, Ampli offrant de très bonnes prestations, très content du son ! Dommage pour le reste.

Yves

Pretty average compared to its description.
The Bluetooth is of very poor quality, very complicated to connect, you have to cut the power to reset it, sound bugs, cuts...

Bien moyen par rapport à sa description..
Le bluetooth est de très mauvaise qualité très compliqué pour se connecter il faut couper l alimentation pour refaire un reset, beug du son, des coupures…

Guillaume

Excellent performance, except that sometimes the amplifier disconnects from the internet in music streaming mode (Spotify, Plex). You have to unplug the amp, wait a bit, and plug it back in for it to find the network again, even when connected via Ethernet cable.

Excellentes prestations si ce n'est que parfois l'ampli se déconnecte d'internet en mode music streaming (Spotify, Plex). Il faut débrancher l'ampli attendre un peu et le rebrancher pour qu'il retrouve le réseau, même câblé en ethernet.
