Onkyo TX-8050 receiver for sale
« on: March 21, 2017, 06:13:02 PM »
Hey everyone, I have an Onkyo TX-8050 receiver for sale.  Haven't listed on Craigslist yet, but it will be going up there shortly.  I'm looking to get $120 for it.  I've had it for about 4-5 years, and it works perfectly, I just upgraded.

Here's a link to the product page for specs: http://www.onkyousa.com/Products/model.php?m=TX-8050&class=Receiver

Any questions, please let me know.  Thanks!

What did you upgrade to?   I've never owned a stereo unit that new, only HT.   The 80s Onkyo stuff I've heard I liked very much.

I liked it a lot. My setup is the Onkyo TX-8050 to a Fosgate Audionics 4125 bi wired to Polk LSI9s.

To be fair, I haven't had much opportunity to hear a variety of audio equipment. But it's always sounded good to me.

I am just upgrading to a newer Onkyo model, the TX-8160. Should be arriving in a couple days. I wanted the additional wireless options that the 8160 provides for when I am moving around the house instead of sitting right in front of my setup, or for when I am too lazy to play vinyl, or want to play something I don't have on vinyl.

The 8160 is supposed to have improved DACs as well, but I'm seeing some mixed reviews, so I hope I'm not disappointed.

May as well also mention here that I am selling a mid-2010 Mac Mini.  I've been using it as a home theater PC and to play my digital collection, works great for that.  CD/DVD drive is broken, but everything else works great.  If anyone is interested in this, just let me know and I'll get you the specs, don't have them on me at the moment.

Both items sold.  If anyone moderates this and would like to delete the thread, that is fine.
