Not Good For A Garage
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this reciever to use in my garage. It's almost useless there because it keeps shutting itself off because it has a built in feature that shuts it off if it gets too hot. It works fine in cool or cold weather but in the summer when I spend the most time there it's constantly shutting off.

Posted .Hi PaulH,
Thank you for the review and we're sorry to hear what happen with your AV receiver. Although the receiver heats up during operation, this is not a malfunction. If you continuously use this receiver at a large volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerably. Follow these steps to resolve your issue.
1. Place the receiver in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup and prolong the life of the receiver.
2. Do not place the receiver near heatsources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
3. Do not place anything on top of the cabinet that might block the ventilation holes and cause malfunctions.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received the receiver without remote control, or manual, still trying to reach customer service. It turns on randomly. I was not able to connect Lenovo Chromebook to Bluetooth, though it connects to other Bluetooth speakers. All the issues appeared just after 15-day return window expired. Before blue tooth connection was fine.
