    I love this receiver/amplifier. It turns on when it senses another attached device turns on. Crystal clear sound when paired with my klipsch speakers.

    Warning! Does not "pass through" Dolby Vision and will not let you listen to an audio HDMI that you aren't watching unless you unplug the output HDMI cable. We use the digital TOSLINK output for content streamed to the TV and HMDI for blueray, keeping the video output of the blueray directly into the TV in order to get all the features. Speaker setup is easy for beginners, but tweaking the auto settings is painful. Bluetooth is quirky and will make you pull your hair out. Can't set output of biamp speakers different - top and bottom are stuck the same. Quality is so-so. But ... its cheap!

    Basic Receiver With MHL

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought this for a friend to upgrade her system. She did not need anything high-end so, feature-wise, this unit will serve the purpose. It does not have Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, which some other brands have on their receivers at this unit's price point. However, it (oddly) does have an MHL input. One thing to note, is that the unit makes a loud 'click' noise when turned on/off. Not a big issue, but something to consider when making your purchase decision.

    Best when used with HDMI or Optical Cable. I prefer the Optical Cable. There is an auto balance set up using a microphone that worked amazingly well.

    I got this as an open-box special at a great price. My favorite feature on this is the dual subwoofer outputs. I happened to have two subwoofers at home, so I hooked them both up and the house is rumbling!! The bypass function is great - allowing the audio and video signal to pass through to the TV when the unit is powered down, The only thing that I can think to improve would be to allow the audio/video signal from one device to pass through while listening to another. Would be great to be able to listen to my turntable while using the Playstation.
