Sony STR-DH820

I had been using component cables with my old Sony receiver (no HDMI). Now, everything is hooked up how it should be and using ALL HDMI. Everything looks and sounds better than ever. I did not find the setup to terribly complicated. I did have small...

I really loved this product. It did what it was supposed to and it did it great until everyones lips were moving and no sound was coming out of them. The center channel speaker was not working, sporadically. I blamed the cable connection but it...
