HDMI x3 1080p/24Hz Deep Color Inputs
If you're looking to pump high-definition DVD playback into your HD displays or projectors, this receiver will do the job. It has a high-bandwidth processor capable of transferring 1080p through the HDMI (v 1.3) output; this technology ensures Blu-ray video compatibility.
High Current Power Supply (H.C.P.S.)
It features a Massive High Power Transformer for audio and video processing, which shields out unwanted magnetic fields. Built with over-sized capacitors capable of delivering breathtaking headroom, with an outstanding audio signal-to-noise.
Exceptional Digital Surround-Sound
It offers built-in Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS Neo:6, and DTS 96/24 decoders capable of advanced 24-bit processing with an outstanding frequency response. The dynamic range of this system is so well balanced and matched, that the center, front and rear channels blend effortlessly into a surreal home theater experience.
Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction
For enhanced room acoustics, Onkyo's Audyssey 2EQ technology is included with this unit. Audyssey 2EQ is designed to work with home theater systems to create a larger, fuller listening area without distorting the sound.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ
When the output volume is adjusted, this feature selects the best possible frequency response and surround sound levels with minimal audio distortion.
Wide Range Amplifier Technology (WRAT)
It's the Wide Range Amplifier Technology (WRAT) that will fill your room with noise-free, impressively powerful, true-to-life sound. With a broader frequency range and lower harmonic noise entering the signal path, it's perfectly suited for new high resolution DVD-Audio and SACD formats.
iPod Connectivity
This system enables you to connect your iPod through the included iPod docking station (model UP-A1L); your iPod effectively becomes another Onkyo component flowing through the system. Compatible iPod models: 4th generation iPod, nano (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th generations), classic (80, 120, 160GB), touch (1st, 2nd generations), and iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPod Photo, iPod video.
CinemaFILTER Technology
Onkyo's proprietary CinemaFILTER restores the correct tonal balance to movie soundtracks that can otherwise be edgy and bright when played back over home audio equipment - this is because film soundtracks are designed to be played back in large theaters, using commercial equipment.
Sirius Satellite Radio Ready
This receiver has a simple connector that allows you to plug the Sirius ConnectT (optional) kit and use the controls of this system to access all the content you want. Subscription and Sirius ConnectT Home Tuner (SC-H1) are required and sold separately.
Music Optimizer Technology
Onkyo's optimizer technology is designed to improve the quality of compressed audio signals such as MP3 and AAC files. Compressed music loses a substantial amount of bit information at higher frequencies, so the Music Optimizer technology works to overcome this limitation and improve audio quality. This function only works with PCM digital audio input signals with a sampling rate below 48KHz and analog audio input signals.
Theater-Dimensional Circuitry
With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround sound even with only 2 or 3 speakers. This is achieved by controlling how sounds reach your left and right ears. The listening angle can be set at either 20° or 40°.
All Discrete Amplifier Circuitry
This circuitry helps reduce distortion at the output stage. In conjunction with H.C.P.S, this receiver realizes a highly efficient drive capability.
Component Video and Digital Audio Inputs
Featuring (2) component video inputs for high-resolution low-distortion video reproduction, and (2) optical/(2) coaxial digital audio inputs for high quality audio reproduction.
Front-Panel Portable Audio Jack
A convenient front-panel mini-jack input offers the ability to easily connect your iPod, MP3 or other portable audio devices.
Subwoofer/Pre Output
Enhance the overall bass output by connecting an external powered subwoofer to the receiver's low-frequency RCA output.
7.1-Channel Speaker System
The center channel speaker, (2) front satellite speakers, and (4) rear surround satellite speakers provide the soundstage, plus a 10" down-firing (290W) subwoofer provides the punch for the low frequencies. Reproducing a full range of audio frequencies to complement your audio selections, you can finally watch your favorite movies come alive with the HT-S5200.

Also, its stylish design will complement the newest flat-screen Plasma and LCD TVs in your home theater set-up.

Built-In AM/FM Tuner

      Comments about Onkyo HT-S5200 Home Theater System (Black):

      I built a home theater from scratch and wanted sound that would match the awesomeness of the room, but also didn't want to spend thousands of dollars. That's where the s5200 came in. Simplistic styling, great sound, multi HDMI ins with one HDMI out (to the projector) allows me to hook up my cable box, PS3, Blu-Ray (if I don't use the PS3)and I still have extra for future expansion. I am no audio-phile, so to me the sound is great, although I am sure others would argue the more you spend the better the sound. For me, however, this Onkyo was a great buy and very good value.

          I had a salesman suggest Onkyo at a local retailer a few years ago and I was impressed by the sound at the store display but I was skeptical. My current system died so I ordered the Onkyo recently... All I can say is wow! Easy to install, plenty of power, and it sounds great. The only excess noise I hear is all my nic nacs that are around my living room shaking from the shear volume of this system.

            I am very pleased with my purchase. System sounds great, has tons of cool features, ability to customize to your setup, and more.

            The only thing negative is that the subwoofer goes into standby mode when it does not receive any signal for a certain amount of time. When it does come back on, it has a slight pop. Even though this is not a huge annoyance, it is the only reason I didnt give the product the full 5 star rating.

            I purchased this HTIB for my bedroom this is a good product for the money, but you get what you pay for. The receiver does not process audio via HDMI. The speakers and receiver look very sleek and stylish.
            The fact that this receiver does not decode HD audio formats over HDMI makes it impossible to recommend for any type of home theatre application. Overall it is pretty good, but can not recommend this for anyone that wants 7.1 sound.

                I was in the market to replace my older home theater, did my research and found the onkyo was the one that I wanted to go with and the price was within my budget. It was easy to hook up and set up. I use the system for watching movies and for just watching regular tv. It sounds great from both.

                  Comments about Onkyo HT-S5200 Home Theater System (Black):

                  Sounds good, but the HDMI pass through stinks. You can't play sound through the HDMI wire to the system the speakers, the sound only passes through to the TV. You need to connect a separate audio wire, to play sound to the Onkyo speakers, and then that doesn't give you true 7.1 sound. Also, there's issues passing video through at 1080p. It will only pass 720p or 1080i through to the TV, not 1080p. If I connect the bluray player directly to the TV, it will pass 1080p through. I therefore can't leave the Bluray resolution set to Auto or 1080p. I have to keep it set lower. Pretty annoying having a 1080p TV that you can't watch 1080p on, unless you run separate wires to the TV & receiver.
