New, the TX-RZ50 sat around AUD 1,400–AUD 1,700, so A$1,895 for a used unit is above fair-market territory unless the condition is exceptionally clean and it includes everything. For a like_new listing, it’s still a bit ambitious rather than a bargain.
That said, this is a very capable receiver: strong 9-channel amp section, up to 11.2 processing, Dirac Live, THX branding, and the HDMI 2.1/eARC feature set make it a serious home-theater hub. If it’s truly pristine, with the original remote, mic, antennas, and box, it’s an appealing buy for someone who wants a long-term AVR and values the Dirac platform.

Onkyo traces its roots to postwar Japan, founded in 1946 in Osaka by Takeshi Goda, an engineer at Matsushita Electric who envisioned high-quality Japanese loudspeakers. Initially established as Osaka Denki Onkyo K.K., the company began production in 1948 with the acclaimed ED-100 speaker featuring a 25 cm driver, quickly building a reputation through LP concerts and innovative designs that resonated with audiophiles.
The brand excels in premium home audio, renowned for AV receivers, hi-fi amplifiers, and surround sound speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and power. Its portfolio spans turntables, DACs, headphones, and cables, bolstered by acquisitions like Pioneer's home electronics division in 2015, enabling cutting-edge integrations such as internet radio and high-resolution streaming.
Onkyo holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by discerning buyers for reliable performance and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica. Despite bankruptcy challenges in the late 2010s, its revival under new ownership preserves a legacy of technological innovation and pure sound enjoyment, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern home cinema setups.
