- I just installed my new receiver last night - in a breeze.This replaces my high-end Yamaha RX-V890; I needed 2 optical audio inputs. I tested all the functions and I am totally impressed and satisfied with my purchase. What is most important, is to have good speakers. Great quality is no longer a luxury. A better surprise, this is a 2006 model. WOW!
- Have reused cheap speakers (total 330w) from a Panasonic bookshelf system and 125 watt (rms) Dahlquist sub-woofer. Even with this cheap infrastructure the difference was mindblowing. Tested only on movies though.This rates as one of the purchases I should have made long ago.
- 550-watt (110 watts x 5) 5.1-channel digital home theater receiver with 192 kHz/24-bit D/A converter
- Cinema DSP (4 programs) and Music DSP (3 programs); Dolby Digital, DTS, and Pro Logic IIx decoders
- XM satellite radio ready (requires subscription and antenna); AM/FM tuner with 40 station presets
- Silent Cinema plays multichannel movie sound through ordinary headphones; 3 HD-compatible component inputs
- 3 digital audio inputs (2 optical and 1 coaxial); measures 17.12 x 5.94 x 12.44 inches (W x H x D); 2-year warranty
