    This turned out to be a great receiver. Got off to a rocky start. The unit kept randomly shutting down from overheating??? Ohm tested all speakers, and cleaned ends of wires making sure there were no stray strands. Happy to report have had no issues since.

    As I sit here listening to a concert I am streaming, I couldn’t be happier with this system. It has more than enough power, sound is clear enough as I feel like I am in the concert hall itself. I am still getting to know all of it’s features. I was very impressed as to the setup of the system in conjunction with the speakers (Klipsch regency 7.2).

    Receiver does the job. Used to a bit higher “level” of product. It’s a little weird getting around and setting up. It’s meant for beginners into HT world. Does the job so no complaint.
