I have no issues, I do wish I spent the extra few bucks and got the atmos enabled to future proof myself, but it does it’s job well with my polk signature series 5.1 setup.

One problem noted below.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only problem so far: When I use our DIRECTV remote to turn on the TV, the DIRECTV box and the AV receiver, the receiver shows SAT/CATV for a few seconds then changes to TV and the sound is lost. I have to manually change it back to SAT/CATV.

Good 5 channel amp with 4K pass through.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My 2011 Marantz amplifier did not support the 4K required by my recently acquired 75" TV. This amp did the trick. I wanted a shorter in height amp and one that supported the 5 speakers I already had in place. I feel I lucked out with this purchase.
