Question: my reciver did not come with a piece of paper telling me to do the firmware update. I go to that section and it says "current" am I good to go?
Document: Also, the firmware was pre-updated to the 400 version. I am just happy I have a unit that works. I plugged it in and everything seems to be going OK after 2 hours. As you may glean from other reviews, time will tell with this unit.This may be my last update on this product unless the HDMI should go south again. So it is fitting I should present my current opinion. The unit does sound good but I have to crank it up to 85% to get meaningful volume out of it.
Just be sure to update your firmware BEFORE you do anything else with the unit. There's even a yellow piece of paper in the box with instructions on how to do this. When you first power on the receiver you're taken straight to the initial setup screen but don't proceed. Instead follow the instructions on the yellow piece of paper and update your firmware. It took about 5 minutes for me over a Comcast wired ethernet connection.There seems to be a well documented issue with the unit recovering from standby mode after the TV has been powered off for several hours.
So after reading all the bad reviews I still decided to purchase this receiver because there were plenty other good reviews also. But I'd like to put in my five cents. The receiver features are great, the sound quality is also fantastic and I have no complains. However, I'm having one major issue which will force me to return this product and purchase a different brand. My issue is that as soon as I go into the menu, my TV goes blank (black) I have to turn the TV off and on for the menu to come back, its a really annoying thing and at the moment I do not have a fix for it (firmware update did not address that).
Just received a new TX-NR616 from Amazon today and all was going well until it prompted me to do a firmware update.Accessing the current firmware version it reads 1161-0108-04? ?.Yes, that 's two question marks at the end so does this mean my firmware is corrupt?When I try an update by Ethernet it downloads to 100% but then reads Error!! 9-1.If I try the latest firmware by USB - 1161-3110-0500 - it says there are no files on the USB so no update there either.I called support but they said I'm up to date because my current firmware begins with 1161 but the rest of the version number doesn't seem right especially the ??
I bought this unit about a month and a half ago and I don't think I have ever been as disappointed with a piece of electronic equipmentLets start with the good points of this unit though.-the light behind that volume control looks greatOk, thats about it. now let me talk about some of the bad points-No paper manual. if you want to figure it out you should have your laptop in front of you or print out about 100 pages. personally, I prefer a paper manual and I thought it was cheap of them not to include it-you have to turn the volume up to 30 to hear anything and turn it up to about 50 to get a decent listening volume.
Don't get me wrong, I like my Onkyo TX-NR616: it's inexpensive, it has a HUGE feature set, it sounds great-especially at this price point. But be prepared to spend a few hours putting this receiver into action. Here the steps that it takes to get up and running.1. Go to Onkyo, download the manual, firmware update and firmware instructions. Not a bid deal, if just takes time. I see complaints about not having a paper manual? I don't know why? An electronic manual is much easier to work with and read while setting up the system.
I am quite happy with this receiver except for a few things that are irritating/frustrating. (1) very slow startup and error messages at startup. I leave my HD Cable box on always and when I press "Watch TV" on my harmony remote it turns on the receiver and the TV. They both come on right away just as they are supposed to, but, the receiver says "no signal" and flashes things on the display of the receiver, then they go away then come back and error messages come back again and then finally the picture and sound come on.
I got this from the warehouse deals. I have bought many items this way and never had a problem until now. I always choose used like New from warehouse deals. I ordered Thursday had it Friday being a prime member it's 4 bucks to get it next day what a great deal. I got it as expected packaging was good and protected but it didn't come in an Onkyo box just in a brown box stuffed with paper to protect it, my first thought that it was a returned unit from a previous customer, but it looked great not a scratch on it.
The only issue was that I needed to do a firmware update right out of the box in order to cure the many time mentioned drop-out of video through HDMI ARC output. I would have thought that with the age of the update, Onkyo would have all current inventory up to date. After getting the update installed with a little help from really good Customer support, the unit is living up to all the hype. Sound quality is excellent, plenty of I/Os, although a second ARC output would be helpful in more sophistcated systems, and the set-up was very intuitive once you get into it.
I must say part of the problem I am having with this receiver might come from buying a like new condition receiver from Amazon Warehouse to save 50 dollars. I have had good luck in the past from buying warehouse products. When it arived I found the receiver had 2 inch crease on the side panel and shipping box had no damage. The crease in the side was in a spot that would not be seen so I was not too concerned about it but a little mad when warehouse said like new condition. Plugged it in and and downloaded firmware update.
Answer: 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
