It's ok for the money
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall for the price this is a good unit, but the graphical interface is clunky and basic. Dont expect to customize or fine tune anything on this receiver. I had an onkyo that was $100 less that had more features and could be easily customized to meet my setup.
