"Incredible sounding receiver"
Pros: Power handling, options, 7.1 decoding, price
Cons: feature set is extensive, but requires studying of the manual
Summary: This receiver is incredible. I'd heard that Yamaha's receivers were incredible for the $$, and after purchasing this unit this past summer, it is true. I actually dug out all of my old CDs, just to listen to them again. For two days straight I didn't get off my couch (I'm powering a set of 7 JBL studio speakers and 12" 600w powered subwoofer).
I love the 7.1 audio feature, as well as the ability to dual-zone the unit, delivering audio to another zone that is different from the main zone audio -- IE, I can watch a movie in our movie theatre while playing soft CD music in our dining room.
I highly recommend this unit. Great unit, and moderately priced!
