2-channel stereo receiver

If you want your receiver to focus purely on two-channel audio, then Onkyo's 50-watt-per-channel TX8255 is the one for you. The whole unit is housed in a rigid reinforced chassis, finished off with a hairline-brushed aluminum front panel, to help eliminate vibrations. Add compatibility with the DS-A2X RI dock for the iPod, and you have a superb stereo solution that brings out the power and dynamism of your audio sources.

Quality stereo sound

Incorporating Onkyo's proprietary Wide Range Amplifier Design (WRAT) with an isolated power transformer and discrete output stage, the TX8255 is focused on maintaining the purity of all your audio sources. And, with the capability to connect and control your iPod, this receiver gives you the versatility for a sweeping range of entertainment options.

High current, low impedance drive

It's easy to understand why high current might be a good thing for an amplifier, but what does impedance have to do with anything? Basically it's the resistance caused by the speakers and speaker wire. Connecting too many speakers, too much cable, or the wrong kind of speakers can create low impedance (a lower ohm rating than the receiver was designed for). This is difficult for typical amplifiers to handle and can cause them to heat up and distort. Onkyo's TX8255 high current design means there will be a good, steady flow of clean power from the amplifier to the speakers, regardless of these challenges. You get better sound no matter how loud you crank it up, and no matter what speaker types/designs are connected.

Remote Interactive compatible

On properly equipped Onkyo receivers like this TX8255, you can connect other Onkyo RI compatible products and use the receiver's remote to operate the functions of these additional components. The benefit of RI compatibility is an entire Onkyo system that operates from one, easy-to-use remote control. The components can also interact. For instance, pressing the Play button on the CD player automatically switches the receiver to CD input.

Included with purchase

Remote control, 2 AA batteries for remote, AM loop/FM wire antennas, Instruction Manual.
