    Good receiver for the money. Wish it was a bit more powerful but the 4K picture pass through is great!

    Not efficient

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

    Why have a system that requires a separately powered subwoofer? This device is expensive enough and powerful enough to directly power a subwoofer. Why must I buy a whole, separately powered subwoofer. I can see offering it as an option, but I should also have the option of simply running a subwoofer directly from this receiver. As a result of this gripe, I returned it and bought a conventional home theater system.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    cool that you can connect your TV, Blu ray, etc, through the unit. Don't like the fact that you have to turn it on to watch anything though.
