Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The unit itself is ok. Wish it had a few more hdmi inputs but you get what you pay for. Great price point. That said once setup and everything was connected I attempted to calibrate the speakers with the provided mic only to find that the mic was defective and wasn’t detecting any sound. Thank goodness I had a spare mic from my pioneer elite receiver otherwise I would have been returning it.

good value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a good value. I have no complaints at all about its performance. I was using much higher end (higher priced) components previously, and I cannot say there's much of a noticeable difference. It has all the features I need and then some.

Nice product but not what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it. Tried it. It was alright and did a decent job however I ended up sending my old receiver in to be repaired. Once that came back I realized I couldn’t justify the price point of this receiver when I had one that works perfectly fine. I ended up returning this product
