i have this, got an awesome deal on it open box at best buy, missing the remote and radio antenna (both cheap to replace for like $10 or something), but also no setup mic (not so cheap to replace) as an upgrade from a tx-nr696, and it's been awesome.
pretty regular firmware updates, no issues to speak of, although i only have it driving a full 5.1.4 setup (sony core fronts/center/sub/atmos and pioneer rears+atmos), plus a dedicated amp off the second sub output, to a couple of bass shakers, and it's been rock solid. only thing i wish it did (not sure if anything else actually does this) is automatically switch inputs when i turn something on (have an xbox one x, series x, and dedicated sony 4k blu-ray player for dolby vision discs). minor niggle, though.

On a separate note, does upgrading to a mid range speaker like Focal Aria or Kef R11 type of speaker present a major upgrade? Currently running Martin Logan motion 40s w Onkyo NR646. Thanks in advance

i recommend the tx-nr7100 version as an updated version with most of those features, which does go on sale occasionally but roughly 50% more than this, so, kind of moot.
This is a great deal. At this price point, no other AVR gives a preout/lineout and dual HDMI outs! Onkyo's sound signature is fantastic in my opinion.
However, I am on the fence whether to upgrade from NR696!
