Onkyo has introduced two new value-priced stereo receivers to its acclaimed product line, each boasting FM/AM tuners, high-current, low-impedance drive with discrete output stage circuitry to ensure superb amplification, and a broad range of connectivity including a phono preamplifier stage. Available features include XM-Ready satellite radio compatibility, multi-room/multi-source capability, and enhanced compatibility with Onkyo’s DS-A1 and DS-A2 iPod control docks.

The TX-8522 delivers 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms. In addition to a built-in AM/FM tuner, the receiver also features a rear panel XM Connect-and-Play port, allowing users to connect an XM Passport portable antenna to receive their XM Satellite Radio subscription directly through their home entertainment system. For easy integration with existing home theater components, it includes three audio inputs, two video inputs, a phono input, and two A/V outputs. Multi-room and multi-source capability further expands options by allowing one person to enjoy music in the living room while another listens to news in the kitchen. The TX-8522 is currently available in black at a suggested retail price of $349.
