I bought this system because Onkyo is a reputable name in audio equipment (especially receivers) and also based on glowing reviews from amazon and other sites. I originally bought the Sony HT-CT15o soundbar system because I wanted a minimalist, simple setup up system, that's easy on the eyes and sounds great,perhaps phenomenal. I was severly disappointed by the sony soundbar even though it had so many positive reviews on amazon. it didn't sound good to my ears, that's all.
the HTX22HDX is way better than the TV speakers built into my Samsung 40" LED LCDTV but i feel that the system lacks in, crisp clear precise bass that's often produced by wooden subwoofer enclosures. The bass is kind of muffled and lossed.
The subwoofer also has a mini, built in audio receiver with many bells & whistles to tweak the audio settings which were lovely.
The highs and mids are clear and sound good good but I wish the bass was more powerful and precise.
I'm going to return it and put in a probably anothetr $150 for a better sounding system.
This system is much much better than the TV speakers but loses in bass sound performance in my opinion.

Movies and games look great on today's widescreen TVs. But let's face it, the audio from your typical flat-panel display leaves a lot to be desired. That's where the HTX-22HDX steps in. In its basic 2.1-channel configuration, the HTX-22HDX gives you a combo subwoofer and A/V receiver plus two front speakers for stunning mid- and high-range audio. Connections? Check. Three HDMI 1.4 inputs let you hook up a Blu-ray player, console, and cable/sat tuner. HDMI 1.4 is not only compatible with upcoming 3D video, it also lets you run an Audio Return Channel from your display's tuner back to the receiver. Audio processing? Check. The HTX-22HDX handles HD formats from DTS and Dolby; offers four distinct audio modes for gaming; and includes Onkyo's very own Theater-Dimensional. The latter creates an immersive and convincing surround effect through just 2.1 channels. Meantime, a new on-screen display makes it easier to adjust settings on the fly, so you can get back to the action sooner.
