- I needed an entry-level AV home theater receiver to use while I was visiting another city for several months, for work. I have a higher-end Onkyo unit which I use for home theater. I got this not expecting too much, given its rock-bottom price, but I was pleasantly surprised both by the wealth of features and settings and the sound quality. It handles four HDMI inputs, is very easy to use, can do digital optical and coax audio, and even has optional Bluetooth and iPod/iPhone dock hookups. There are a vast array of DSP settings. I actually got this as part of the Yamaha home theater bundle --- again, not expecting much given the low price, but the sound quality is quite impressive for the money.…
- Fantastic receiver for the price! We have it connected to a new LG 55" 3D TV, Blu-ray player, DVD Recorder, Dish Receiver all through the HDMI receiver inputs with only having to connect one HDMI (output) cable to the TV. Also have POLK speakers connected and everything works great! Also, many sound options to chose from with STRAIGHT being the option most used (automatically selects digital 5.1 or pro-logic movie mode if program is not broadcast in Digital). Totally satisfied!
