Title: Very HOT unit....
Review: After lots of research, and some great reviews here on Amazon and the AVS Forum, I decided upon the Onkyo 605 receiver. It has run perfectly and sounded great, however, this thing is so hot, it almost makes you worry about it being a fire hazard.Just the other day I opened my entertainment unit to watch a movie. My Onkyo was on standby, and even on standby, you could literally have fried an egg on this thing. I'm assuming that it has protection circuitry that cuts the unit off in the even of overheating, but as hot as it was, it would have to be melting the metal to hit this limit. I was also concerned with teh Blu-ray player that I had on the next shelf up, as the shelf itself was scorching.I now just unplug the unit when not in use, but I think that I'm going to be replacing with a much cooler Denon. Maybe I don't have enough ventilation in my cabinet, but my old Kenwood never got even close to being this hot in the same cabinet.
Is the review positive or negative?
