Unbelievable AV Receiver at a Discount Price August 15, 2007

Have been setting up the AV Receiver with my older system components for a couple of days now and the setup is very detailed if you want it to be. The manual I first downloaded from Yamaha's website before purchase. I have learned more about the various 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11 speaker systems and the various formats than I ever new were possible. The handles that the software gives you are very, very detailed. You can also use the included mic and do a very good auto set-up as a good place to start your overall system set-up. I could spend days tweaking the system if I can find the time. I am glad to have spent the extra, extra dollars knowing that this receiver will not be obsolete when the 5 year warranty expires.

I bought this unit about 2 years ago and have enjoyed its power, crispness, ease of use and was overall satisfied. But, when I upgaded my home system with better speakers, custom installation and an hd dvd player the true performance of this unit came out. This thing runs my entire house! It is magnificent in every way. One of the benefits is the ease of use it will read the broadcast of the dvd, cable or sat and set the proper sound settings. The think also has a little feature that reads the room so the front, center and surround speakers are set correctly. The price was a little steep but, after owning it for a while it was worth every penny. One more thing.... It weighs a ton. You need a forklift to move it.
Go buy one.
