While everyone is drooling over the latest surround sound formats, stereo music remains the most popular way to listen to music. The Onkyo TX-8511 is a powerful stereo receiver perfectly suited for a music-listening setup, be it a bedroom, dining room, or wherever you want to bring music.

This receiver has 100 watts of power at 8 ohms and features A/B speaker switching so it can power a second set of speakers, even a remote outdoor pair. The pure tones output by this receiver are due to a high-current, low-impedance drive, and heavy-duty aluminum heat sinks to improve efficiency and reduce distortion. The TX-8511 is capable of driving a four-ohm set of speakers, an outstanding and rare feature.

In addition to four audio inputs, this receiver has two video inputs--audio/video switching is also a rare feature for a stereo receiver. The built-in AM/FM receiver uses a battery-free 30-station preset memory backup with a two-mode automatic precision reception tuner. The attractive front panel has subdued lighting and features ten-key direct-access tuning. The receiver comes with a remote control and also has a sleep timer function. For the many applications where stereo sound is still the norm, the Onkyo TX-8511 is a wonderful option.
