Sound System
Onkyo HT SR600
Rs 24,990 (festive sale offer) / Rs 30,000 (retail)
This system is quite new in the market, and it’s from a stable of high-quality steeds. Onkyo is after all no new name in the world of home theater. The HT SR600 is a package containing an AV receiver and five speakers, with a matching sub.
Silver and gray make up the exterior of the components, which look quite neat and trim. The speaker grilles are black, and sizewise they fall under the category of wooden satellites. The receiver model is R 340, while the speaker system is HTP 350. The set is compatible in terms of looks and sound.
The system offers pumping sound, with very good bass and overall timing. All the T-rex roars and driveby scenes that might have felt orphaned in our previous budget feature are present here in their full flamboyance.
The set is easy to set up and use, though adapting to the remote takes time as it has lots of buttons. The receiver is comprehensive and responsive to most issues. Do check out the specs.
