"I really like this receiver"
Pros: Beutiful Sound; Easy set up; More features than I can use right now.
Cons: Could use another HDMI input; Remote control not easy to program.
Summary: I decided to upgrade part of my ancient SONY surround system with this receiver. Setup was very easy. I hooked up my blu-ray player and Cable box to the receiver with the HDMI inputs and used sent the HDMI out to my HD LCD TV. I also purchased the Denon ASD-3N iPod dock and connected it with the provided cable.
The first thing I noticed was a dramatic improvement in sound. I heard things on familiar video and audio sources that I never heard with my other receiver. I haven't fully wriung out the video upgrading features, but the picture on my TV looks at least as good as it did before.
The iPod dock was a pleasant surprise and I highly recommend it. The sound coming through the system from my iPod classic is terrific.
Not much to complain about really. I will say that only two HDMI inputs seem a bit skimpy considering that the receiver has about a million s-video and RCA jacks. The only other thing is that the manual is confusing and made programming the remote control a bit daunting.
There are many features on this receiver that I have yet to explore, and given the sheer number of features, that is likely to take a very long time.
