Excellent sound output
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this unit and used it with my monoprice speakers that I was considering to throw away. Best decision ever!! I’m not really experienced when it comes to receivers as I have always used surround sound systems. So I did not have a cooling fan ready for this receiver. The heating of the system after a few hrs of use was the only disappointing thing for me.

Just ok
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price not bad. Just overall not great. To change certain settings you have to use amp menu which doesn't display on screen just on the tiny led on the reciever itself very annoying.
