Onkyo has filed for bankruptcy

Sorry to hear any manufacturer going bankrupt. All serve their purpose in engaging people with their music.  I own a C-7030 CD Player/Transport on my second system and I have tried replacing it but keep coming back to it. Amazing sound to price value.  It’s staying in place and would recommend it to others.

You know jj49, sometimes people just can’t switch jobs like other people change socks.  Day Care arrangements may limit some.  Others may be approaching retirement age and not exactly look like the belle of the ball on a resume.  They may have elderly parents or sick children that limit their mobility., if not their own medical issues as well. Sometimes you gamble that you can ride the sinking ship until it hits your destination out of necessity.

That sad news sure brought many of tear to my eyes. The Hi-Fi industry will never be the same without a game changer like Onkyo! What’s next Yorx or Lloyds?

@mahler123 1+ "decent midfi." I sold Onkyo products for 4 years 1977-1981.

They were as good as or better than other midfi brands including Marantz, Sony, Pioneer. I sold them all supporting the customer's inclination never choosing a winner myself. Only Kenwood and Yamaha were significantly better in areas. Accuphase was a high end product which was seriously better than the others.

@jjss49 yes I do and people will lose jobs bubba, such arrogance.
