For Onkyo it was salt rubbed into already significant wounds. Between COVID-19 lock-downs and a fire at a Japanese AKM plant that wiped out important digital audio components used in A/V receivers, supply issues were almost certainly felt across the industry. Problems with supply were understandable in 2020, it was a bad year for us all, but may have hit the Japanese audio industry particularly hard. This is what led to late year speculation that Onkyo had either closed its doors for good, or at the very least was suffering from serious supply chain issues.
Although we may never know the details, it may have been Onkyo’s steely self-confidence that curtailed the Sound United deal to purchase Onkyo and its properties including Pioneer.īut the company's 2020 difficulties also included reports from customers and dealers alike facing difficulty getting product, parts and warranty repairs. This was just part of a plan that included much internal restructuring in both Japan and its global businesses. Last summer we reported that Onkyo USA closed its doors for good and handed-off North American distribution to Klipsch (under 11 Trading Company). To say 2020 was a rough year for Onkyo is an understatement.
If I do decide to part with them, I will let you know.Rumors of Onkyo’s bankruptcy have been greatly exaggerated! But as its fiscal year draws to a close on March 31st, the historic Japanese audio firm may be pulling-off a spectacular Hail Mary and turning its fortunes around for 2021.

So, I will probably just do a sound bar at some point as the TV sound sucks at best. But with the way our living room is done, it could only be bookshelf speakers that sat on the shelves and I think she's more interested in those shelves being for decor and not sound. I built the upstairs room to house all my gear so none would be in the living room, which was my preference my wife was good either way. But, not sure if it's going to happen or not, really. They are some great sounding small speakers and I had thought I'd use them in the living room with some basic setup. Yes, I've had them for maybe 10 years now. It's served its purpose well through the years. I just need to somehow come up with the time to build a new rack for that side, and potentially the other side, and move the Barzillay cabinet to our bedroom I guess. Keep me in mind if you choose to part with the 400C's if the price is right for me. I built my daughter a 7.1 system using 元00E and 元00C's with a KV-2 center. I see you have some ADS 400C's which are some of my favorite mini speakers of all time. (working on that) I need access control from my phone to a laptop via WiFi so I can see what's going on. What I'm lacking, too, is that side doesn't have access to the NAS for the FLAC files of all the CD's like the other does but that is mainly due to not having internet.yet. But in my use, one side is for the M-5000R amp on the Belles and the other side goes to the Sunfire 12" sub. I do like the fact that the P-3000R pre has "bi-amp" control where you can balance the gain via the preamp for more fine control. I'm going to have to get some other sort of "power center" on this side of the room like the Tripplite on the other setup at some point. It was mainly to test them out and make sure was all good to go and they did a fine job. Well, I can't really "get to" all of my CD's as they are boxed up still due to not having time to build a suitable rack. I got a little listening time in after they were hooked up and played a couple of CD's on them.
