Community Reviews

The Onkyo TX RZ70 stands out as a flagship 11.2 channel AVR with strong real world performance, Dirac Live standard, and upgradeable room correction. It is praised for plenty of power, solid build quality, modern HDMI 2.1 compatibility, and testing that appears to beat its published specs. The main hesitation is value, since the RZ30 and RZ50 are often seen as close enough for far less money, especially if you already use external amps or do not need future Dirac ART support. Its 19 inch depth and Adorama return terms also deserve a look before ordering.

  • Listeners driving demanding speakers in larger rooms, because the built-in amplification is described as a significant power upgrade with plenty of channels.

  • Owners replacing an older receiver for newer streaming and HDMI features, because the newer platform adds current apps and modern connectivity.

  • Home theater upgraders using PS5 or other modern sources, because it passes 4K at 120Hz and VRR that older receivers cannot handle.

  • Room-correction tinkerers who want calibration inside one app, because Dirac Bass Control reduces the need for REW and MSO.

  • Budget-focused theater builders who already get good results from a lower model, because the RZ30 is described as delivering nearly the same performance for far less.

  • Calibration hobbyists who already use REW and know their setup well, because there is little reason to switch just for room correction.

  • People planning to add external amplification, because the RZ70 is said to offer no advantage over an RZ50 on external amps.

  • Owners with shallow cabinets, because the receiver is 19 inches deep and can stick out the back.

Probably the best AVR deal at this price point. Dirac standard and upgradeable. Independent testing shows it performs better than it's specs.

How much of an upgrade would this be over my old onkyo rz830? I'm running 5.1.4 on it currently and don't need more channels or power. Room correction upgrade worth it?

I just ordered a 98" qm8l TV...benefits for it I'm unaware of? Thx

If you ordering a expensive item from Adorama, do check there return policy. They are really bad when it comes to returns, you may end up paying for shipping it back and also a %15 restocking fee if the item is opened.
SD seems to like them. Almost all deals from them are from staff.
Also check there cash back on other sites. You may get $60 as cash back.

That's exactly what you would be paying for with this.
You're better off buying the RZ30 especially at half the price($700).
It will give you everything this does in your scenario ime

So if I use rew for audio calibration there's really no reason to switch...
