    I find this HP printer a little difficult to use. Maybe it is just different from my last HP printer.

    This is my first av reciever with the exception of some old audio receivers but this is definitely an upgrade. Supports the 7 speaker hook up or the 5 speaker 2 height speaker hook up, I’m currently running atmos on it and it is impressive, it’s a good power sized speaker for sure although there is definitely room for more power to get louder speakers, overall I am happy with this,
