"GREAT buy for budget conscious AV Receiver shoppers"
Pros: Affordable, 4 HDMI inputs, LOUD - sounds great!
Cons: Does not upscale to 1080p, 2 component inputs
Summary: I am really glad I waited to get the SR606 (almost got the SR605 last month) This receiver sounds great and even though it only upscales to 1080i from analog, what a difference in quality versus plugging direct from source. 90W per channel is way more than I need for a 200 square foot room. Could not be happier with the 4 HDMI - 1 more component would be nice but for $500 I shouldn't complain too loud. VERY pleased overall with my purchase

...that the receiver runs hot, or that it cuts out for a few seconds every now and then, or that they couldn't get it to play very loud. Can you tell me if you noticed anything like this?
I'm interested in this receiver, but only if it lives up to the positive comments and not the negative ones. Maybe this is only bleeding-edge early-production problems that will be ironed out in due time.
I'm also looking forward to the full review CNET has promised.
