    Upgraded from an 8 year old HTIAB Onkyo system. Much less clunky of a menu setup, remote works great and the app is great as well. Was compatible with all my speakers except my subwoofer, which I never could find a straight answer on. You will have to have an independently powered sub with this system. I picked up a Polk Audio one and it works great.

    Just received our new system and I have to say it only took about an hour to get it all setup. I had an older (10 yrs) Onkyo unit and it finally gave up the ghost. This us a major step up. Visual and aural experience is beyond my expectations. I will update this in a month or so, but we are really pleased!

    Good entry level home theater receiver. Loaded with great apps. Not complicated but lacks true high end quality because of entry level price point. Great if it’s your first entry into home theater and setup if your looking for good performance but don’t want to spend big bucks.
