Onkyo TX-8220 Stereo Receiver
The Onkyo TX-8220 is a no-compromise stereo receiver that delivers pure analogue amplification with the convenience of modern connectivity. Producing 100 watts per channel, it is built around Onkyo's WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) with a high-current EI transformer for a powerful, controlled sound that belies its accessible price. With Bluetooth 4.1, DAB+/FM radio, a 192 kHz/24-bit DAC, and a built-in MM phono stage, the TX-8220 is the perfect hub for a complete hi-fi system.
Key Features
- 100 W x 2 channels (6 ohm, 1 kHz, 10% THD, 1-ch driven, IEC) — powerful, room-filling stereo performance
- WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) with high-current EI transformer for low-distortion, high-fidelity amplification
- Bluetooth 4.1 (A2DP / AVRCP) with Standby and Auto Connect for wireless streaming from smartphones and tablets
- DAB+ and FM/RDS tuner with 40-station memory presets
- 192 kHz/24-bit DAC (PCM1754) for high-resolution digital audio playback
- Built-in MM phono stage — connect a turntable directly for vinyl playback
- 2 digital inputs (1 × Optical, 1 × Coaxial) for TV and BD/DVD player connection
- 4 analogue RCA inputs plus 1 line output for CD players and other sources
- Subwoofer pre-out for seamless integration with an active subwoofer
- Two pairs of speaker outputs (A/B) with screw-knob terminals
- 6.35 mm headphone output for private listening
- Music Optimizer — upscales compressed audio for improved sound quality
Pure Analogue Amplification
At the heart of the TX-8220 is Onkyo’s WRAT amplifier topology, which uses a high-current EI transformer and optimised signal paths to deliver a wide frequency range with minimal distortion. The result is a clean, dynamic sound that handles everything from delicate acoustic recordings to high-energy rock with equal composure.
Complete Source Connectivity
The TX-8220 covers every source you own. Stream wirelessly via Bluetooth, tune into DAB+ or FM radio, connect your TV or Blu-ray player via digital inputs, spin vinyl through the MM phono stage, or plug in a CD player via one of the four analogue inputs. A subwoofer pre-out and dual speaker outputs (A/B) complete a fully flexible system hub.

Caring for your Speakers and Amplifiers
To Keep your equipment safe these are some best practices to note. Please be advised that this is only to reduce the risk of misuse and is not an exhaustive list.
Speakers
- Speaker terminals are marked red and black, ensure your amplifier to the speakers are wired on the same colours
- Ensure no loose speaker wire from the red touches a loose wire from the black as this will lead to a short circuit and damage either the speaker, the amplifier or both.
- Not all speakers are designed to play at max volume, kindly consider the pairing of your amplifier and speakers
- Speaker cabinets cannot be replaced please handle with care.
AV & Stereo Amplifiers
- If your amplifier has HDMI ports, ensure all devices are off before plugging in the HDMI cable
- Turn off the amplifier before swoping out or adding speaker cable
- Amplifiers generate heat, place them in a well ventilated space. if possible avoid having anything on top of the unit.
- adding a surge protector can assist with power dips which are likely to damage your devices. Isotek and Furman are industry standard.
- Dusty environments can sometimes lead to accumulation of dust in the electronic components that might affect heat regulation
