4 out of 5 stars incredible sound   July 30, 2008
This reciever has lived up to everything I expected, ease of connections and sound quality is fantastic. The only draw back I have found is when I do an auto setup the Sub Woofer Does not kick in with the Music channels. I had to manualy go into the program and change several settings. Other than that POW! sounds great and works well with my system.

I remember when I would have stayed up all night, if necessary, to install a new piece of audio equipment. Well, it's hooked up for TV and cd/dvd but not yet for radio and tape decks. I had some friends over the day after I installed it and we watched several hours of concerts on dvd. Their response was unanimous: FABULOUS! And that's without a subwoofer. Front pair of speakers are Klipsch F-3 towers. Center and rear are cheap set of Sony's.
Sometimes the receiver has a mind of its own. I restarted a movie we had just watched and it played with commentary. It would not let me change it back to no commentary. This has never happened prior. I think it may be a compatability issue.
TV picture looks better but I have to adjust the aspect ratio and the "video status"(color variants) every time I watch something. It doesn't really bother me but for someone who does not want to fiddle with the controls to get the optimal picture, it will be a hassle.

I am thrilled to have this unit, it's one of the best investments i have ever made. when i hooked this unit to my sorround system my living room came alive. the sound is UNREAL. If anyone is looking for a great receiver this is the ONE.

Just hooked this up over the weekend. A little tricky to set it up but the sound and features from this unit are great. I doubt there is a better receiver out there for $400. If you don't like to read the users manual, buy a simple receiver with less features.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent Reciever, No Regrets   November 16, 2007

Love this reciever, plugged right in and ran out of the box no problem. Use the HDMI to watch tv tru the cable and HD Dvd. Only reason not 5 stars is the Upconvert from the analog cable causes the reciever to temporary reset itself and all you see is a green screen for about 3 seconds. I know its the cable signal cause it doesn't do it in DVD.
