Community Reviews
The TX RZ30 is a strong value 9 channel AVR for Atmos setups, especially if you want Dirac room correction and dual independent sub outs. It is repeatedly framed as a better fit than pricier Denon and Yamaha alternatives when you do not need more than 9 channels, and the included calibration is praised for improving sound after setup. The main cautions are extra Dirac costs for Bass Control, a learning curve, and recurring concern about Onkyo HDMI reliability and shipping or warranty hassles. A solid pick for a modern 5.1.4 or 5.2.4 system if those tradeoffs fit.
The receiver can process up to nine channels, which fits common 5.1.4 Atmos-style layouts well.
The RZ30 includes Dirac Live Bass Control access via A1EVO Express, which can reduce the need for a separate $300 DLBC purchase.
The unit offers dual independent sub outputs, which supports more flexible subwoofer integration than models without that feature.
A coupon code reportedly applied successfully and reduced the total cost by $300 in at least one purchase.
Onkyo HDMI reliability is a concern based on past experiences, including HDMI handshake failures and repair workarounds.
Warranty service may require paying shipping to a service center even during warranty coverage, which can be expensive for a heavy receiver.
Shipping may not be free at checkout, since PayPal reportedly added a shipping charge while a credit card removed it.
Dirac Live Bass Control reportedly does not include Dirac subwoofer/bass correction and instead relies on AVR bass management for sub calibration.

It's a solid unit & easily competes with all the other 9 channel AVRs.

It's rumored that it may include access to Dirac's ART room correction.
Now TBH this is plenty good enough for most of the people in here imo.
