Customer Reviews
Good bang for the buck. Network connectivity is a huge plus for this unit with decent power output for those that like it loud.C. Miller
Does everything I need. Internet Radio, Pandora, and DLNA streaming from Windows Media PC's plus Android (with IContol5).Easy hook up with plenty of HDMI inputs plus dual sub pre-outs. The only thing missing would be a dedicated phono stage but it's a HT receiver so not completely unexpected. Been wanting to try a tube driven phono stage for quite some time now.Also seems to pack plenty of punch. More than my old Denon AVR-2106 by a noticeable margin.
