The STR-DH820 adds some useful features from the entry-level STR-DH520. As A/V receivers go, it does a pretty good job and doesn't have any significant failings that would annoy the majority of users.

I purchased this to access Netflix and didn\'t want to purchase a gaming system to do it. What a great buy. Easy to set up, easy to use and doesn\'t take up any space at all. It adds a remote to my collection but it\'s a minor issue. And speaking of...

Limited number of HDMI inputs. Too many HDMI problems (loss of video) with different HDMI cables. Replaced it with a Pioneer and problems are gone. Couldn't get subwoofer to work either. Other than that, it is not bad for the money.

I bought this to power a set of JBL bookshelf speakers using an iPod as a source. It's certainly not a very powerful amplifier, but has reasonably good sound and works well in the small space that I have it in. Not too bad for the small size and cost.

Received the amp on November 1st. Out of the box it was good. Using a pair of Tekton Design Model 4.1's helped. (Full range 4.0" Fostex drivers) Just switched out the tubes for a pair of 5670's. Unbelievable. A real bargin.

The room it is used in was a bit challenging, the antenna needed to be up a bit higher than usual.
