Fifty Great Reasons to Choose an OnkyoIIf you're looking to get the best possible audio performance on a limited budget-and something you can use to power audio from your TV, Blu-ray player, turntable, and CD player-then the TX-8020 is for you. Passing over the extras you don't need in favor of purely musical analog power, it remains versatile enough to serve at the heart of your home entertainment system. Onkyo's WRAT delivers 50+50 W of power, with discrete output stage circuitry and a high current, low-impedance drive to effortlessly handle the most demanding loads. The sound is characteristic of the veteran hi-fi brand, with lively dynamics, a sweet and natural mid-range, and accurate timing for all kinds of music. And just like the cool vintage receivers in its genealogy, the TX-8020 has bass, treble, and balance controls as well as speaker A/B posts for multi-room setups. Add a pair of bookshelf or floorstanding speakers of your choice, connect your media players and TV-perhaps including the DS-A5 RI dock with AirPlay-and be treated to the kind of full-scale, broad-spectrum performance a soundbar couldn't hope to match.

Great receiver for efficient speakers
on September 6, 2015
Posted by: Stainz
I use my TX-8020 receiver to drive a pair of NHT SuperOne 2.1's, inefficient acoustic suspension speakers, in my 11' x 12' office, my source being a C-7030 CD player. The Klipsch KB-15 speakers I have are awaiting another TX-8020 for a larger room. The sound is clean and will get loud enough for me. The receiver is great for FM use, too... at least as sensitive as my old Yamaha. Just a real bargain in a good stereo receiver!
I would recommend this to a friend!

i want to confirm that I can connect a powered subwoofer to this amp. Please advise correctly. thanks

The TX8020 has the subwoofer output, actually an unfiltered L+R line level controlled on/off by speaker A switch, available on the back panel. I wire my main speakers to speaker B output, which permits their use with or without the subwoofer by turning speaker A on or off at the receiver's front panel (Sadly it's not a remote control function!).
