Best bang for the buck, hands down
By Eduardo Nietzsche
I kicked myself for not getting this one, it came out just after I had purchased a Marantz 5400 which I'm still quite happy with, but this Pioneer is really a whole other class.If you read a lot of audio forums online such as hometheaterforum dot com and ecoustics dot com, you'll find tons of buzz about this model, because it's basically identical to some of Pioneer's Elite super-premium line that normally go much closer to a thousand dollars---the same DACs, build, power supply, all the important stuff underneat the handsome black metal casing.One of its best features is the LCD screen remote control which you use to auto-calibrate your speakers...not only their relative volume, but their individual EQ settings, for a truly customized-to-the-room sound! This is especially handy if you either have crappy or mismatched speakers, or a very unusual listening room accoustically.The other nice feature too is the bi-amping capability, which can make two stereo sound (ideal for music) sound amazing, and again will let you get the best possible mileage out of less-than-stellar speakers. Also the 110 watts per channel RMS is a fairly honest rating, unlike a lot of the mass market junk you find at big-box chains like Best Buy which have ridiculously overinflated power ratings (read: Sony, Kenwood, JVC, Panasonic, Onkyo, etc.). So you are getting a very powerful, clear yet warm-sounding receiver that does both home theater and music equally well, and at a bargain price!I say snatch one of these up before Pioneer comes to its senses and discontinues it, because I'm sure it must be taking a lot of sales away from their Elite line of receivers!

By G. ollivier
Very handy, the auto calibration makes its setup a breeze. you can easily change your room layout without having to spend hours optimizing the output to speakers. Mixed with Fluance speakers, the sound is just great, particularly on the seven channel mode. THX included. A great deal.

By Ron B
I dumped a kenwood 2 years old for this and it was worth every penny. This receiver is awsumb... the auto MACC system works perfect. Each of the 7 channel is acoustically matched to your room and it sounds it. It has 4 digital inputs (2 coax, 2 optical) in addition to the normal compliment of analog inputs. It remembers the settings for any given input. I use the SPDIF out of my computer to play MP3 files into one of the coax digital inputs and you can then select from any unmber of normal, direct, 7ch stereo, etc etc sound modes to play from and it remembers how you set that input. Whenever you want to play music.. you just switch and poof. I could go on for hours about the kewl features of this receiver but NO ONE can touch this for the price. You will hear true surround sound with a digital connection from a DVD player. Each channel is automatically acoustically equalized (balanced) via plug in mic provided with the receiver and LONG cord so you can just place the mic where in the room you want the center of the sound field to be and hit AUTO MACC... and dont move around while its going through the calibration process (takes about 3-4 min) and then ur done... Sit back and enjoy the best sound you will ever hear from your speakers. It will automatically detect the size and location of all your speakers... etc etc... This is one impressive receiver. My brother bought one so did my boss at work and all of us totally LOVE THIS BABY. You won't regret this buy.
