Multi-Zone Audio And Video7.2 Multi-Channel pre-outs, pre-outs for Zone 3 as well as Powered Zone 2A/B capability opens up distributed audio options throughout the home backed by dedicated Zone 2 and Zone 3 DACs. Select HDMI terminals support 4K/60 Hz video, HDCP 2.2 copy protection, and High Dynamic Range (HDR), with BT.2020 support, for next-generation UltraHD streaming and broadcasting. A 4k and HDCP 2.2/HDR-compatible Zone 2 HDMI output allows you to enjoy AV sources connected to the receiver in another room. |
For Theater Reference SoundTHX certification guarantees the same high volume and low distortion levels you experience in a commercial theater in your listening room. THX Select2 Plus is recommended for screen-to-seat viewing distances of 10 –12 feet (3 – 4 meters). To achieve THX certification, amplifiers must undergo a barrage of the industry's toughest independent bench testing to satisfy THX requirements. |
Your Speakers Will Thank YouSpeakers are built to be driven hard, and most amps out there can't do it. The RZ810 delivers a high instantaneous current to grip and control speakers, moving them through their entire range. It's a significant boost to the dynamism, detail, and accuracy of music and movie soundtracks for a thrilling listening experience. |
It's SeriousUpgraded components, such as the massive transformer and custom capacitors, provide high instantaneous current for lightning-fast transient response and a frequency range that extends down to 5 Hz. Discrete amp circuits prevent phase shifting for an accurate audio image, cutting distortion even at floor-shaking volumes. It's a serious build for those serious about sound. |

Noiseless Audio ProcessingVector Linear Shaping Circuitry is a mouthful, so we call it VLSC. This circuitry virtually removes digital pulse noise for a smooth analog signal. RZ810 features VLSC across all channels. Data is converted between sampling points and these points are joined with analog vectors in real time to produce a smooth output wave form. The result is a virtually noiseless, smooth, analog signal based on the digital source. It brings out even the most subtle of nuances in audio sources. |
Listen! Up In The Sky!Make object-based Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound reality in your living room. Sound flows naturally above and around in three dimensions, with discrete effects—such as birdcalls, rain, or the sound of a helicopter—originating from overhead. In fact, every element in an 'object-based' soundtrack is mixed separately, so it's free to travel from speaker to speaker with lifelike realism. |
Multi-Room AudioA firmware update enables any audio source connected to the receiver—from vinyl to streaming audio—to be sent wirelessly via FireConnect powered by Blackfire, to an optional speaker placed anywhere in your home. Stable, fast, and easy to control with a mobile, it's the smart way to set audio free. |
Dial In Audio With AccuEQAccuEQ equalizes the surround-sound to suit the room acoustics for crisply focused sound, while AccuReflex aligns the phase of upfiring height speakers with sound coming directly from your other speakers. Any delay is resolved so that everything arrives at your ears at the same time. The result is cohesive reproduction of object-based soundtracks. |

Prior to finding this Onkyo on Amazon, I had an ill-fated attempt to swap our dead Denon receiver for a new Sony receiver that had received tons of positive reviews. However, the Sony didn’t cut it for us, and I went back to the drawing board. I’m so glad I found this Onkyo. The RZ810 really is an amazing receiver.
First, you should know the RZ line of receivers by Onkyo is their top line for a/v devices. The company also produces a “regular” line of receivers sold under the NR nomenclature. The RZ810 was near the top of the premium line when it was released, but Onkyo has continued to push the line upward, and now there are several truly high-end models. The RZ810 was a very strong high mid-tier model.
You can tell from the box that Onkyo meant for this receiver to be taken seriously. It is big and heavy compared to most other receivers. It dwarfed the Sony I mentioned above. Taking the RZ810 out of the box only enhances the view that this is a premium device. The entire front panel is aluminum, with no plastic to be found. That gives a solid feel even to the door that flips down revealing additional controls and ports. The legs have a premium look to them and were specifically designed for the RZ line.
The high-end vibe also carries through to the internals. Onkyo starts with a premium 32-bit/384kHz digital-to-analog converter that faithfully renders music, TV, and movie soundtracks. The RZ810’s Dynamic Audio Amplification delivers plenty of power with very little distortion. Due in part to the Phase-matching Bass Enhancement, you will hear and feel a deep rumble when appropriate; our subwoofer has come alive like never before.
On top of all that, Onkyo includes a strong 3-year warranty on the RZ line, demonstrating their believe in the quality of what they’ve built.

If you look at the pictures, you can see you have plenty of connectivity on the back of the receiver. Not only do you have 2 zones, you have 3 zones and a ton of HDMI connections. I should note, only the first three HDMI ports can handle HDR and Dolby Atmos. If you have more than three devices that output those formats, you may want to upgrade to the more recent Onkyo TX-RZ820, but that’s virtually the only difference between the two receivers – other than about $800 in current prices.
The RZ810 connects quickly and easily to WiFi and Bluetooth. The Chromecast function works well, although it’s not quite as polished as the version found in the Sony.
The remote is pretty standard but functional. Note, you can also use the Onkyo Controller App on your smartphone or tablet to control the receiver. Interestingly, many things (such as zone controls) are simply quicker and easier via the app.
At the end of the day, the big question for a receiver is how well it processes signals and outputs them. In that regard, this is the best receiver I’ve ever used.
Sound quality is extraordinary, and not just stuff like the THX Select2 certification for movies that gives you a great directional soundfield. Across the board, music and movies sound clear but rich and full. The bass booms and the subwoofer thumps like never before. The highs are pitch perfect. The mids are clear. The sound is superbly balanced between the speakers to fill the room.
Even the video on the television seems brighter and richer.
The RZ810 had an original MSRP of $1400, but since it was a 2016 model and the new RZ820 replaced it in 2018, the RZ810 can be found now at roughly a 60% discount, which makes it a terrific value.
In case you can’t tell, I think the RZ810 a superb a/v receiver. If you need a receiver and can live with “only” three HDMI ports supporting HDR and Atmos, I highly recommend the Onkyo TX-RZ810.
To compare some key differences, the Onkyo TX-RZ810 features are a clear step up from the TX-NR809 in a number of ways (I'm mixing some researched features along with my observations here):
-Better HDR/4K compatibility (the 809 can also do 4K upscaling via Marvell Qdeo™ but it was in its infancy.)
-Slightly better video color reproduction. Contrasts are better with darker darks and non-hazy lights, at least on a Panasonic Viera.
-Has Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry (VLSC) for better noiseless audio processing-registers clearer audio signals, especially from analog sources. Voices and some music sources are clearer.
-Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound ready - 3-dimension sound effects are significantly better, including signals that are supposed to come from rooftops. I can vouch for this (requires an appropriate Atmos speaker setup).
-FireConnect Multi-Room Wireless Technology integrated.
-Wireless Audio Streaming with Chromecast built-in, AirPlay, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth already integrated. Stream any music from your smartphone, laptop, or PC to the TX-RZ810 with ease. Control playback with Chrome.
-Settings are slightly faster in response, more intuitive and simpler to figure out
-Weight for TX-RZ810: 30.9 lbs vs. TX-NR809: 40.3 lbs. (about 9.4 lbs. lighter).
To compare speaker wattage outputs (dictates speaker output with volume/power/current flow increase when you turn the volume dial. Higher Watts/Channel means volume is louder for the same volume setting)
-TX-RZ810:
* THX® Select2™ Plus Certified 130 W/Ch (8 Ohms, 20 Hz-20 kHz, 0.08% THD, 2 Channels Driven, FTC) and 200 W/Ch (6 Ohms, 1 kHz, 0.9% THD, 1 Channel Driven, FTC) from Custom RZ Grade Parts

VS..
-TX-NR809:
* THX® Select2™ Plus Certified 135 W/Ch (8 Ohms, 20 Hz-20 kHz, 0.08%, 2 channels driven, FTC); 145 W/Ch (8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.7%, 2 channels driven, FTC)
* Frequency Response: 5 Hz–100 kHz/+1 dB, -3 dB (Direct Audio)
* 8 HDMI Inputs and 2 Outputs with support for 3D and Audio Return Channel (ARC)
The 2 specs comparisons show that the RZ810 is slightly underpowered under standard conditions, and I've noticed that when my volume settings require it being dialled a little higher to get the same counterpart volume range vs my NR809. The RZ810 however pumps more power/current on the center or front channel (depending on your setting) or will pump more power/current across all speakers when sound feeds quickly require it (e.g. movie exploSions, voice shouts, etc) and does it fairly smoothly so it's not painful to the ears. The RZ810 definitely is very responsive, sound is clearer and nuances more crisp vs NR809.
Many outside reviews mull over the RZ810's propietary room sound calibration/correction software change from the NR809's Audyssey MultEQ™ to AccuEQ/AccuReflex to be a downturn, which, I think can be an audiophile's personal preference. In my experience, Audyssey MultEQ seemed to be more balanced and thorough, but way noisier and longer during calibration. AccuEQ/AccuReflex isn't really all that bad! Some audiophile reviews report that they still had to manually tweak their base frequencies via the equalizer, however I didn't have to. After calibration, my 5.1 and 7.1 setups with Definitive Technology speakers sounded fantastic!
One thing I do still notice with both of my Onkyo receivers is that 1.) they can't effectively equalize volume variations (TV advertisements are still very loud vs. the actual shows I'm watching), 2.) base volume variations are observed on a day-to-day basis even if I don't change my volume setting. I'm hoping Onkyo will read this comment and have a solution to this concern.
I am hoping for my TX-RZ810 to last me years of reliable entertainment. Altogether, this A/V receiver has so far been a worthwhile purchase and you will not regret having one.
This is really unexceptable for a receiver that is otherwise very good. Older units had one button instant switch; why they went with this new remote is mind boggling.
