I bought an Onkyo TX-NR609 from Amazon Germany in January, 2012. It is connected to Bose Acoustimass 10, 5.1 speaker. It has worked until now.
Last week, I suddenly found that the Onkyo had no HDMI output from its HDMI inputs ( Tata Sky HD and Dune BD Prime 3.0, though I could get an ouput via its composite port.
I called Onkyo Office in Chennai and they hummed and hawed, seemingly reluctant to help. They said the HDMI port designed for use in Europe would fail in India. They quoted a approximate price of Rs.20000 ( yes, 20K) to repair the unit, which ight take 3-4 weeks or more.
Anyway, I did a factory re-set (Firmware xxxx.8106) and am glad to report that it works fine.
So, if anyone else has similar problem, try the same.
Cheers,
