Onkyo HT-RC360/370 - Page 24

I'm thinking about purchasing an Onkyo 360. Does it have the same HDMI issues as the 606 which I currently have?

Funny thing is, my cable box HDMI conked out at the same time. Struck by electrical surge maybe? It was all off at the time. Now, cable box complains about the HDMI not being "HDCP compliant", even when I hook it directly to the TV, although component video is okay there too. Can the cable box kill the receiver, or vice-versa?

My patience has exceeded its limit. I took my RC360 to the service dealer in the end of August, and was more than patient for longer than the 3 weeks they said it might take to turn it around. Calling back at the beginning of October, they say it is a bad HDMI board and they've been waiting for the part from Onkyo. They promise to follow up and get back to me but of course do not; after a few days of pestering they contact Onkyo again and tell mee the HDMI card is back ordered to Nov. 11. So now I'm on the phone with Onkyo trying to state my case that waiting 3 months to fix a receiver that is less than a year old is ridiculous. If they can't ship one board they should ship me a replacement.

Black levels off with ROKU - Onkyo RC-360 when using Netflix 5.1 audio

Anyone using a ROKU 2 with the Onkyo RC-360 may want read this.

It seems ROKU and Onkyo may be finally talking.....

My HT-RC360 died last night after just over a month of having it. I was watching a movie, there was loud pop, the message "Check SP Wire," followed by an awful smell. Now the receiver turns on for about 5 seconds, and can't get past the HDMI start up. This is my second Onkyo receiver, and the second time I had to send it in for repair. This is definitely going to be my last Onkyo receiver.

Alas, I also got the "Check SP Wire" message earlier tonight. I've had my HT-RC360 for about a year now and I had decided it on it after much research. It was the first receiver I ever purchased.

Ah well, live and learn. It'll be a COLD DAY IN HELL before I ever buy another Onkyo product though. I ordered a Denon receiver from Amazon that should be here Tuesday.

Onkyo did do something right with their remote, it is a learning remote. If the device you are trying to setup doesn't have a code inside the owners manual, then either head to page 70 and follow the instructions to have the Onkyo remote learn the buttons you need to use off of the original remote or head to the link below and head to page 70.

This is the link to the owners manual for the ht-rc370

Thanks for the post. That information is not in the RC360 manual. I thought it still would be worth a try though.

Unfortunately I found the remote (RC-801M) that comes with the RC360 must be a different model than the one supplied with the RC370.

Please post the RC370's remote model number when you can.

Have you had a chance to play your iPod from the front USB? I do and only get sound out of 2 channels (2 speakers). I have the 7.1 set up and want to change the listening mode to all stereo but its greyed out. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hey Guys I have had my RC-360 for about a year and there are two minor issues I cant figure out. First is when listening the Cd's on the Onkyo DX-C390 and I have my TV on it will mute the CD and the tv sound will take over, my TV sound is transmitted by a fiber optic cable to receiver and the CD sound is analog, I know it automatically chooses the digital source but this is annoying as sometimes I want to have music in the background and watch TV through the TV speakers (switching the tv sound to speaker from receiver doesn't work on the tv settings). My second issue is with my Xbox 360 sound, it is connected via HDMI to receiver, sometimes I play through the TV speaker and then when I turn on the receiver to play it will say only stereo sound and I will have to go to the xbox settings and re-choose Dolby digital out. Any help on these two issues will be much appreciated.
