Nice amp! I was (and still am for the most part) a diehard Onkyo fan. I own one of the predecessors of this model you're showcasing in the video, a TX-8555, and I absolutely love it for our two channel system. Overbuilt, like Onkyos used to be, with a thick anodized aluminum front panel and heavy machined volume knob. This thing actually performs like a good integrated amp that just happens to have a tuner built in. The only things I don't like about it are the lack of a loudness button and no tape monitor loop to connect an EQ. I was using a TX-SR605 in our 5.1 home theater, and loved it, but it developed a bad HDMI out port; I recently replaced it with a Denon AVR-X2800, but I much prefer the sound and operation of the Onk. This model in your video has been replaced by the 8140, I think it is....
