I have used Sony receiver for years and I was always turned off by the amount of buttons and all the menu navigation that I had to do just to turn up the Bass or Treble. This Onkyo is a great because it brings things back to the simpler days of having a Knob for Bass, Treble and Balance, yet it still has a full remote control if you prefer that method.
The sound quality is very good, the Radio setup is easy and the input selections are also very good, it supports older record players so that will be a plus for people that still have LP's.
The only bad part of this receiver is that it is strictly an Analog receiver, it has no fiber optic inputs (Toslink) and no HDMI inputs or anything else thats digital. It only has Left and Right Stereo jacks, also it does not have a subwoofer output so forget hooking up a powered subwoofer, So if you are looking for an AV receiver this is not the model for you but if you want an old fashion designed straight forward simple to use receiver to play music this unit is perfect.

I was not looking to buy an extremely expensive home theater receiver, but my old one just didn't have HDMI inputs and the latest technology like optical inputs, onboard decoding, and Dolby TrueHD. I was still stuck with ProLogic. Once this was all set up my ears were in heaven. The movies delivered better sound quality better audio effects. It's as simple to use as my old Sony. I also like the DSP modes, especially "orchestra" for music, and "T-D" (theater dimensional) on movie nights.

I am not an audio expert. I purchased this Onkyo receiver to replace an old Pioneer unit that developed bad static on one channel. I chose the Onkyo because it has the ability to drive speakers that are under 8 ohms. My Bose speakers are 8 ohms, but my JBL's are 6 ohms. The TX-8255 produces great sound in my opinion and has enough power to drive both sets of speakers at the same time. It is a great buy for someone who need a top quality two channel receiver.

This is my first receiver. I did some research before deciding on this unit. The main reason I bought the TX-8255 was because it has a phono jack. My turntable is 15 years old and would not work on this receiver. I was told I needed a preamp after I already had the receiver. I bought the preamp and the turntable still wouldn't work. I ended up buying a new turntable after much frustration. If, on the description for the TX-8255, it stated that it wouldn't work on a turntable as old as mine , it would have saved me all the frustration. It seems to be a good receiver, but I haven't had it long enough to rate the durability.
