    Running Definitive Tech 5.1 satellite system. Kind of low on power output but the sound is pretty good for my 15 by 15 room. Not for big rooms, even for small powerful speakers.

    Lots of inputs, all HDCP 2.2 4K UHD. As a bonus this is not nearly as deep as most units, allowing it to fit in a smaller cabinet (or have more room for cables and airflow).
