Onkyo HT-RC370 7.2-Channel THX Certified Network Audio/Video Receiver (Black) Review
Amazing Versatility and Class-Leading Performance
To really get your home theater connected, hook up the ultra-versatile HT-RC370. With seven HDMI® inputs—including one on the front—this THX® Select2 Plus™ certified receiver offers unlimited scope for high-definition thrills. Along with lossless audio from Dolby and DTS, the HT-RC370 supports 3D video, an Audio Return Channel, and video upscaling to 4K resolution via Qdeo™ technology. Other inputs include a front-panel USB port for direct digital connection of iPod®/iPhone®, and a wide range of digital and analog inputs—including S-Video and 7.1-channel analog inputs—to handle legacy components. The HT-RC370 employs advanced Audyssey room-calibration and equalization technologies to optimize audio output, and a seamless graphical OSD and navigation GUI for browsing your content and adjusting settings. As a network receiver, the HT-RC370 also adds internet radio and PC audio to your entertainment options. Audiophile features, such as bi-amping capability and 7.2 multichannel pre-outs, help make the HT-RC370 an irresistible choice for the serious home theater fan.
Network Capability Delivers Internet Radio and Network Audio Streaming via Ethernet
As one of Onkyo's new breed of receivers that can link directly to the internet or to your home PC via a local network, the HT-RC370 takes streaming audio and internet radio to a whole new level. MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless, FLAC, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, and LPCM audio files can now be played back through your main system with unprecedented power and fidelity. The HT-RC370 also brings to life a huge array of internet radio channels from vTuner, SIRIUS XM Internet Radio®, Mediafly, Pandora®, and Slacker™, plus on-demand music streaming from Napster and Rhapsody*. As well as being compatible with earlier platforms, the receiver is compatible with Microsoft's Windows® 7 platform, which includes the DLNA 1.5-specified "Play To" media-streaming feature. The HT-RC370's internet connectivity has the added benefit of making firmware updates simpler than ever.
THX® Select2 Plus™ Certified
THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screen-to-seat viewing distance is 10 to 12 feet and the room volume is around 2000 cubic feet. To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the HT-RC370 had to meet the world's most demanding standards for home theater audio quality and performance, and play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.
Wireless Ready: PC and Internet Audio Delivered Wirelessly to Your Main System
About the size of a quarter, the UWF-1 connects to the USB port on compatible Onkyo A/V receivers and brings audio through your wireless router to your home entertainment system.
Direct Digital Connection of iPod®/iPhone® via Front-Panel USB Port
The HT-RC370's front-panel USB port lets you access MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless, FLAC, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, and AAC audio files stored on a USB flash drive or iPod®/iPhone®. As the audio signals are transported in digital form, rather than analog, there is much less chance of signal degradation. End result: your music sounds cleaner and more faithful to the original. A further benefit of the USB input is that it lets you use the system's remote controller to play back audio files on the connected device.
4K Upscaling and Processing
The HT-RC370 offers full 4K (3840 x 2160) upscaling of standard video sources such as 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i/p. Interlaced-to-progressive conversion and scaling are performed by high-quality Qdeo™ technology from Marvell. Qdeo™ is a versatile video processor that uses algorithms designed to erase video noise and artifacts such as jaggies and feathering. Played back on a compatible wide-screen display, your Blu-ray Discs and DVDs will look more detailed and cinematic than ever.
HDMI® Support for 3D Video and Audio Return Channel
The seven HDMI inputs on the HT-RC370 let you connect multiple high-def sources, such as a Blu-ray player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. A single output then sends a pristine signal to your connected high-resolution display. The HDMI implementation on this receiver supports both 3D video and an Audio Return Channel, along with numerous high-resolution formats. 3D video brings exciting possibilities to home entertainment, with movie, game, and broadcast content on the increase and 3D-compatible TVs now on the market. Meanwhile, the Audio Return Channel allows audio content received directly by your HDTV's tuner to be sent "upstream" via HDMI to your A/V receiver, without the need for a separate S/PDIF audio cable.
A Suite of Audyssey Technologies for the Ideal Listening Environment
(1) Audyssey MultEQ XT® tailors multi-channel audio for your home theater speaker set-up by measuring up to 8 room positions and applying advanced resolution room correction solution with high resolution equalization filters for satellites and subwoofers.
(2) Audyssey Dynamic EQ® maintains a consistent bass response, tonal balance, and surround-sound effect at different volume levels, so you can enjoy the natural dynamics
of your content regardless of the volume.
(3) Audyssey Dynamic Volume® automatically compensates for volume fluctuations in
different audio content (for example, during commercial breaks)
while optimizing the dynamic range.
Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz Add Expanded Dimensions to Surround Sound
The HT-RC370 handles two advanced surround-sound technologies from Audyssey and Dolby that offer exciting new ways to set up the speakers in your home theater system. Audyssey DSX can reconfigure the HT-RC370's surround back channels to deliver "front height" channels. These channels carry ambient, non-directional audio that adds a new vertical dimension to your movies and games. Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides a similar front-height speaker option that likewise works to create a more enveloping home theater experience.
Convenient Overlay On-Screen Display via HDMI®
Changing your A/V receiver's settings is now more seamless than ever, thanks to the HT-RC370's overlay On-Screen Display (OSD) feature. With a simple press of the home button, the on-screen set-up menus appear overlaid on the video image you're watching. This means you can adjust the settings immediately, without having to switch back and forth from a blank screen background.
Onkyo Remote App for iPod®/iPhone®
Available as a free download, this app lets you use your iPod® touch or iPhone® as a remote controller to control a range of functions on the HT-RC370. As well as letting you select internet radio stations, it also lets you select streaming audio input from a DLNA-compatible server. TheRemote App also enables you to perform basic playback operations and control the receiver's volume with an interface that uses the iPod®/iPhone®'s built-in accelerometer.
*Compatible iPod®/iPhone® models: iPod® touch 3rd generation or later; iPhone® 3GS or later. (All models require iOS 4.2 or later.)
PC Input
Use PC-IN to easily connect your notebook or mediacenter PC to your Onkyo AV receiver, allowing you to watch your stored movies on your flatscreen TV. You can now easily watch internet videos, PC-stored movies and pictures on your TV. (Audio connectivity may vary depending on your computer hardware, but Onkyo receivers support a wide range of different interfaces.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't get better with same price range, July 14, 2011
By Sherif Khateeb - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Onkyo HT-RC370 7.2-Channel THX Certified Network Audio/Video Receiver (Black) (Electronics)
I have been using the HT-RC370 receiver for 3 days now. I read a lot of reviews for many A/V receivers before buying this one. At first i decided to buy the Onkyo TX-NR609 because it had the most positive reviews in the mid-range receivers and it was in the my budget range, but the Audyssey 2EQ was one of the things i didn't like in the NR609 model because i wanted to equalize the subwoofer. Then i read that Onkyo's HT-RC360 was the same performance but lacking the THX certification and the PC-In and is almost 150 dollars less. That was the reason i looked for a cheaper version of the TX-NR709, and thank god i found the HT-RC370 with an Audyssey MultiXT (more than i wanted) and just 100 dollars more than the 609 model.
The installation was really easy and the setup as well. Replacing my 2003 Sony's STR-DE995, i ran the calibration on 3 positions only because i was so excited to wait for all 8 :) I played Inception Blu ray on the PS3 and i was really AMAZED of how well my same speakers sound, especially the wonderful CS10 Polkaudio Center and the cheap RCA rears. i never experienced a clear dialogue like that before and crisp clear high frequency effects and last but not least a damn realistic low frequency. When you increase the volume you'll pass by a THX reference at 82.0 it was really loud but i said i should give it a try. I must tell it is the closest theater like experience you'll ever get especially with this price range.
Video quality is also great.
A thing that i didn't really like (but trivial) is the receiver consumes a lot of power while in Standby and allowing HDMI pass through. It was warm after 4 hrs in standby. I didn't check yet exactly the power consumption on stanby.
Bottom line, this is an amazing piece of art and i recommend it for any one who's looking in the same price range.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Value! Excellent Quality!, September 11, 2011
By S. Swasey (Huber Heights, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Onkyo HT-RC370 7.2-Channel THX Certified Network Audio/Video Receiver (Black) (Electronics)
First off, let me just get this out the way. I received a dud when I first ordered this from Amazon. It worked great for about 2 days but later in the second day the sound became terrible because of a strong static hissing noise that would not stop. This is where I give credit to Amazon, they took care of the problem immediately, no questions asked and I received my replacement just a couple of days later(this happened on a weekend)
Now that I have that out the way, I love this receiver. I previously owned an Onkyo 605(which was one of the first receivers to suppport 7.1 PCM, Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master HD) I must say, for the price range that was a great receiver. The big negative to that was it only had three HDMI inputs and I currently had at least 5 components that I hooked up to my receiver, using an HDMI splitter in the process. The problem was the splitter was terrible and I would have to unplug it and replug it to get a signal at times. Thus, I needed a receiver that had more HDMI inputs and this fulfilled my needs on that aspect.
I have to say that I am no audiophile and I don't make the type of money to get the most high end equipment. Though, I will say that I absolutely love great sound quality. Over the last year, I doubt I used the sound coming through my TV for more than an hour, I'm always listening to movies, music and games through my receiver. I'm not cheap though but I often look for the best bang for your buck. That's where I found this model after doing some research for a couple of weeks to replace my 605. I was originally considering getting the model below this one but after doing my homework I decided it was more worthwhile spending the extra $150 to get this.
For anybody interested in what speakers I'm using with this, here it is:
Center - Bic Acousetch PL-28 Center Speaker
Front Speakers - x2 Vintage Sanwai SP - X9
Surround - x2 BIC America Venturi DV64 2-Way Tower Speaker
Surround Back - x2 Polk Audio TL2 Sat Speaker
Subwoofer - BIC America F12 12-Inch 475-Watt Front Firing Powered Subwoofer
As far as audio goes, I used it with my 360, PS3(games and Blu-Ray), Wii, PS2 and PC everything sounds excellent and noticeably better than my Onkyo 605 before it(though to be fair, I upgraded my center speaker and subwoofer when I upgraded my receiver)
Movies - Dialog is crystal clear and you get that sense of immersion when watching movies. My favorite movie I like to text my sound out on is The Incredible Hulk(2008). The scene where they are at the park by the school sounds simply amazing. I used Audyssey MultEQ XT to set up the sound before hand for about 7 different spots and it makes a world of difference.
Games - Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Crysis 2 are both great games to test this out on. To me, playing games with this system is even better than more immersive than watching movies. Even the Wii sounds great on here with Pro-Logic II.
Music - I've used my iPhone on this and it sounds great but if you can listen to FLAC, I highly suggest doing it. It's such a richer and more detailed experience.
One thing to note in all of this, you can't expect to get high quality out of sub par quality speakers. So if you plan to get the receiver and spend only around $200 for the additional speakers for a 7.1 system, this is not for you. Get this receiver if you already have good speakers or are planning on upgrading to better speakers in the future. Even if you go part by part, it's better to have a good 2.1 system than a bad 7.1 system.(Worth noting that this is a 7.2 system)
As far as video quality is concerned, I just run everything how it would look if I ran straight through my TV. I don't mess with any of the presets outside of setting my output resolution to 1080p which makes the Wii look a little sharper.
Feature wise, it does have some nice options but most I will never use such as the internet apps. As simple as it sounds, I like the fact that I can name each input and it shows on the TV. It helps make it a little easier for someone who is not used to using the receiver. You can also switch the HDMI inputs to whatever input you please which comes in handy if you need an input specifically for something that is using component(example, the only way I could hook my Wii up through component was using the Cable input which my cable was hooked up through HDMI using the same input. So I had to turn off my cable box to use the Wii. I switched my cable box to the TV input eliminating the need to turn it off when I want to use the Wii) The last thing I will say is that the remote works great as a universal remote for my TV and Cable Box. It actually feels more responsive than my Cable Box remote does.
Bottom line(Too Long; Didn't Read Version) this receiver has plenty of inputs, plenty of features and will drive a good set of speakers with ease. It gets bonus points for being THX certified and is an excellent value at the price. Onkyo makes fantastic receivers at affordable price ranges and I highly doubt you will find a better receiver within this range.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be stunning receiver, but audio ruins everything..., November 2, 2011
By Victor "Bluetooth Rocks" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Onkyo HT-RC370 7.2-Channel THX Certified Network Audio/Video Receiver (Black) (Electronics)
Exceeded expectation!
Excellent unit, everything works the way I want it. Loaded with exotic decoders DSD,DVD-A. My SACD and DVD-A never sounded better over HDMI. No lip sync issues. Plenty of inputs, even hooked up my old Denon 2200 with 5.1 analog and Component video. Very flexible and configurable hardware. 3D, DTS-HD, TrueHD, friendly with AIOS HD media center. Loud, but does not produce heat as older Onkyo models.
I was using Pioneer Elite and its higher-end consumer grade units exclusively. Had recently VSX-1020 for a few month - did not like it at all. Was looking at VSX-1121, but so many folks are complaining about quality issues. I glad I came around this unit, thanks to "on sale" posting on the web.
It is a steal @ sale price. I am surprised there are not many reviews on this unit. There is no better value out there at the moment, period.
Unfortunately, I found a huge issue - audio will become distorted or some channels will drop if you pause/resume playback of any movie with TrueHD or DTS-HD Audio. This receiver has issue with 2 out of 4 my devices, mostly HD media players (aka WDTV Live or AIOS) are affected the most. It is 50/50 chance - it will not be compatible with your player. Replaced it with Yamaha RX-A2000, not exactly the same league, but got it just $200 over ONKYO. Neither gear have any audio issues with Pioneer Elite or Yamaha I own. I tried 2 ONKYO units, both had the same exact audio issue.
Shame, it was very promising.
