I have one, runs hot. But what I did is punch out a big hole for a quiet 120mm fan in the back of my enclosed cabinet and power it from the USB ports on the unit - turns on and off with the unit. So far seems ok. I haven't had any Atmos issues though, seems to play ok with the stuff I watch - mainly streaming services, Roku 4K, and some Blu-ray.
These are good but they run very hot so don't work great inside a cabinet or with other components on top.
Some people just want to have a bigger home system than just a soundbar.

How is this compared to the S970H? Or the X1700H (refurb) that goes on sale around the same price?

Yeah, and you cannot depend on the network connection to work with the phone app reliably. And the App is pretty rudimentary and often non-responsive IMHO.

I've seen this deal come up a lot and kind of on the fence. I have an Onkyo TX-NR656, and I have only one issue: Since it supports ARC (and not eARC), I can't get 4K/120Hz with Dolby Atmos. From a lot of research, I've heard that even if I could, there's a known delay when using Atmos with Onkyo receivers, and there's no solution in sight; it has been an issue for years. I was wondering if anyone has this running with XSX and doesn't have the audio delay problem.

Also, for the inevitable comment that Onkyo models have issues with HDMI failures, this was a thing many years ago. In my case, they replaced the board for free, and I still consider myself a fairly loyal Onkyo customer. Anecdotal, as it is.

The S970H is definitely worth the extra $50. Just my subjective opinion, though they look very similar on paper (specifications).

I have the same NR656 and while only running 4k/60hz I've had no issues with Atmos delay (also on XSX for 4k UHD disk playback - also no issue on PS5 or Shield Pro).

I have had zero app issues with either of my Onkyo receivers. I've been pleasantly surprised with how well they work, especially after the app update a year or so ago. I mostly use mine to turn Zone 2 on or off because that function is ridiculously tedious with the remote. Maybe more complex stuff is glitchy.

That Zone 2 .. while good is a job in itself! Have to remember turn on/off separately. Who designs these things????

Yeah, I've unintentionally treated my neighbors to late night music before. I should probably revise my earlier thoughts on the app. The actual receiver controls app works nicely, but the built in content stuff (like Spotify) is pretty sketchy.
