    Receiver fits well in a tight space and adds 4K

    I previously had an older 5 disc DVD Samsung receiver, but it was showing its age, and I wanted to be able to have something that would support ARC from the TV back to the receiver (to satisfy others in the household who don't want to listen to the receiver to watch TV). This works really well in handling both the ARC, and I moved an Apple TV 4K as an input into the receiver, and it handles it just fine. I used the old speakers (3 Ohm) with the receiver even though it recommends 4-8 Ohm speakers. The configuration process does take about 10-15 minutes, but it sounds good. I had to turn down the subwoofer settings, but otherwise it works great. Airplay works well, and my Google Home Mini sees it as well. There may be more reasonably priced receivers, but for my needs, it does what I need it to do.

    Love the SFF

    Not heavy and fits perfectly into the small space I had in mind for it. More than enough power for the small space I use it in (an RV). Many useful features and easy to use and customize.

    Love it!

    Needed a small home theatre receiver for my media center and this was perfect!! VERY EASY for this 66 year old female to set up on my own. It has plenty of power for my system and doesn’t run so hot. It replaced a Pioneer stereo receiver I used for 26 years!!!
