Not impressed with it at all...my 16 year old Pioneer Digital Signal Processor sounds
better.

This receiver was purchased to do one thing, provide surround sound from a Vizio TV to 5 Bose speakers. It did that and did it well.
We had no need for the HDMI switching so the issue with the sound not being included in the HDMI switching was not an issue. The sound from the Bose AM-7 speakers and two rear 101's is great! The Bass is full and solid, the 3 front channels are clear and distinct. The rear speakers needed to be turned down a bit, but sound is very good. The only minus was the menu system for test tone and level controls for the channels.
I give it an 8 out of 10 as a good solid dolby receiver.

This is a great reciever if you only want to hook up 3 items, as the HDMI and video are
not assignable, therefore if you have something hooked up in the HDMI labeled sat, you
loose the analog input for that assignment. Shipped back, very dissapointed, went with
Onkyo SR507.

This is a decent entry-level home theatre receiver. It sounded sounded fine with the
various music styles I threw at it (Baroque, 80's rock, mariachi) through both analog and
digital connections.
The gotchas: don't expect HDMI upconversion with this device; if you use multple video
sources (composite, component, and HDMI), you'll need matching video connections to
your TV.
The HDMI inputs only do video; you'll need separate digital audio connections, thus
incurring an additional expense.
No tape monitor loop, so forget about connecting an EQ. Also, there is only one audio
only input.
The tone controls are a function nested within a submenu. Definitely need to pore over
the manual prior to using, as the interface is not terribly intuitive.
Bottom line: The fundamentals are okay, but you'll quickly outgrow it.

I was seriously confused once I got this receiver home. Thinking it was a Sony, i assumed it would be great and operate well. How wrong was I, the interface (user controls) are next impossible to use due to the need to have to have the remote control. Poor sound quality as well.
