From the Onkyo recall site: https://care.onkyousa.com/: I'm stuck at Step 3. Step 4 is grayed out (the return options) which I guess is not available for my TX-NR717. My only options appear to...

Yeah, it's not quite apples to apples when comparing something that costs well over 50% more. Applying that same principle to your $390 receiver and you'd be over $600. I have no doubt the premium...

The 686 is not a "lower end" model, it's just older, Onkyo uses the 6X6 designation for this "layer" of their A/V receiver line. The 686 occupies the same place in the lineup as the 696 but is just...

With ARC, the HDMI on your TV is also an audio OUT. So instead of going optical out back to a receiver or soundbar, you can use arc. ARC is bidirectional.
