Manufacturer description
The HT-S7100 includes powerful 130 watt-per-channel A/V receivers with HDMI inputs for up to four sources, including internal processing for the latest high resolution audio formats and 1080i video upscaling. The receivers are matched with a high-performance 7.1-channel speaker and active subwoofer package, and the company's highly regarded iPod dock. For connectivity, the HT-S7100 A/V receivers feature four HDMI inputs, including support for 1080p video and DeepColor capability. There is internal audio processing for the Dolby TrueHD, Dolby digital plus, DTS-HD master audio, and DTS-HD high resolution audio formats, making it possible to extract the full audio potential of the Blu-ray disc format. For video, the receivers include Faroudja DCDi Edge processing that is capable of upscaling all video inputs to 1080i resolution for output via HDMI, improving picture quality and simplifying the connection to HD video displays. Onkyo's HT-S7100 features seven satellite speakers and a powerful subwoofer for deep bass reproduction. The front L/R and horizontal center channel speakers each feature a pair of 3-1/8 inch cone woofers and a high quality 1-inch balanced tweeter. For a coherent and timbre-matched surround field, the included surround speakers each use the same drivers as the front speakers, but employ only a single woofer. The system includes a high-power downfiring subwoofer with a 10-inch cone driver with an internal 290 watt amplification module. All crossover points in system can be set to any of eight possible settings for ideal integration with the environment and listener preferences.

Overall great.by neophyt8183 - June 29, 2009
Pros: The NFM team will be setting it up next week but I have played with it and it's pretty good. Sound is clear and has many options available. Recomend as with any expensive electronic device that you read the manuel(s).
Cons: My dog hates it.
Review: A great buy and wonderful addition to a home theatre.

Not very user friendlyby jfiester - January 27, 2009
Pros: System sounds good and works as advertiised - a good value.
Cons: Confusing to set-up. Parts missing and customer service is really bad - no response to 2 emails requesting replacements screws that were missing (shipped from NewEgg - no help at all). After calling customer service, I ended up buying the parts!

Great Value - I would recommend HT-S7100 to a friendby ntward - October 4, 2008
Pros: Plenty of power and bass for my 18' x 20' room, 4 HDMI inputs, 7.1 surround sound is clear and sounds great. HDMI switching output to Panasonic PT-AX200U looks great partnered with my PS3.
Cons: On screen menu icons look outdated and pixelated, but does that really matter? Onkyo receivers don't look cool, but they do perform well.
