"Good sound, lots of connectivity, but video problems."
Pros: The sound is great, driving my Aperion speakers. The video conversion is convenient, I can put everything on HDMI. Configuration isn't too difficult, nice to see a menu on the TV.
Cons: When displaying 1080p video from my Xbox 360, I see blue dots on the screen during dark scenes, even with the HDMI mode set to "Through". I don't think it is doing real pass through of the video. Doesn't happen on a 720p signal.
Summary: I like the sound, and the connectivity. The v... read more

Summary: The problem with Zone 2 is huge. I would not... read more

"Incredible sound; great upconversion"
Pros: Great connectivity and superb sound. Video upconversion works flawlessly; I have not experienced any of the problems mentioned in other reviews.
Cons: None; since I picked this up at the Circuit City liquidation, the price was right as well.
Summary: I am using a BenQ W5000 1080p projector with ... read more
