Onkyo SKS-HT870 review
For maximum audio impact, your multichannel Onkyo receiver should be
accompanied by a full-blooded surround-sound speaker set. Fitting the bill
is the new SKS-HT870, a 7.1-channel system that injects power and vitality
into all your movies, games, and music. The highlight, both visually and
aurally, is a pair of dual-drive, floor-standing tallboy front speakers
rated conservatively at 130 W. In concert with the two-way center and
full-range surround and surround-back speakers?€”each also rated 130
W?€”they deliver stunningly detailed high- and mid-range frequencies.
Meanwhile, at the bottom end, a superbly calibrated 290 W subwoofer adds
visceral heft to bass notes and low frequency effects..
