Bought this to replace an 11 year old 5.1 Nakamichi. The surround and digital output using all HDMI produces thunderous bass and crystal clear highs. My mom was watching Angels and Demons on Blu Ray last night and 700 watts of the exploding Volkswagen made the walls resonate and she jumped out of her chair! Unit is 'expensive' looking and the GUI seems pretty decent so far. Still have not programmed the FM stations yet, but thus far for CD audio, FIOS cable, DVD and Blu Ray this thing is an unbeatable product for under $300. One note for users of HDMI: you may experience a delay in signal between the movement of the actors lips and the actual vocal sound produced from the receiver. This is easily fixed via the audio control menu A/V m/s delay settings. I set mine at 200 and the lip movement-to-sound-sync is now perfect.

Just got this receiver on Thursday. Installed it yesterday. I wanted to purchase a receiver that did not look like EVERY receiver on the market. This was definitely the receiver for me. The piano black finish looks great. Very clean. It goes great with the Harmon Kardon Speakers (HKTS 18) which also have a piano black finish to them. Overall, the whole system looks great...and sounds just as good. Audio is very crisp. Dolby HD and DTS HD sound great!

Not only does the reciever put out great audio (110 watts per channel)...but another selling point for me was the GUI. It gives me the option of cycling through menus and setting on the TV, which is nice because i don't have to get my glasses to change radio stations or rename outputs.

Overall, i'm very happy with my purchase. This receiver looks unique. It looks clean. It sounds great. Like I said, 'clean design is the name of the game.

I wish people would stop knocking this receiver just because they don't know how to hook it up properly. There are definitely better receivers out there but not at this price range. This receiver is a very good bang for the buck. Plenty of inputs, GUI. Setup is easy unless you can't follow instructions. The piano finish is very nice, compliments your stereo system especially with piano finish speakers and plasma or lcd screens. I am running them with B&W speakers and it sounds great. The people who are complaining about the sound are probably running them through crappy speakers. Speakers are a huge factor when it comes to sound quality. $10000 receiver + crappy speakers = crappy sound.
