I wrote much of this material in October 2010. At the time, my sole reference was the service manual (the actual unit arrived several months later). I intended the piece to be a preview of the HK 990, which had just been shown at CEDIA. Since then, the...

Experts and users are pleased with the performance but floored by the value of the Onkyo TX-SR308. Things sound pretty good with music, and excellent with movie sound tracks. Even those reviewers with quibbles say that you'll need to spend a bit more...

Ordered this receiver on a Saturday and it was delivered on Monday. The Sherwood was just what I needed and got it at a great price along with an extended warranty for only $14.00.

Review: If you're looking for a midpriced AV receiver that is easy to use, has respectable power reserves & audio performance, the Marantz SR6004 should be on your short list for consideration.

It won't slice or dice, brew your coffee, or fetch your slippers, but the Insignia Infocast's ability to put news, music, photos, calendars, and social networks at your fingertips makes it a worthy addition to today's digitally-enabled home.

The Onkyo TX-SR674's stellar feature set and first-rate sound quality put it the top tier of midprice HDMI A/V receivers.

Easy to set up, I now have all my multi-media going through surround sound and it sounds great. Can't fault the unit so far. One tip - you must have an active (powered) subwoofer. Passive ones with not work with this unit.

A superb bit of kit. Works perfect with the Sony NW-ZX100HN High Resolution Audio Walkman. Great value for money and very nice build quality.

I liked being able to install my own hard drive, however. You can transfer, edit, rename, or delete files on the Mvix's drive from your PC, over the network. By copying files to it, you can avoid network problems and free up space on your PC's hard...

Had to return the first one, sound bar bad, according to Pioneer. Received replacement, after twenty days', SAT/CBL and TV channels stopped having sound. I will be returning and try # three.

This entry-level A/V receiver is a small investment that gets you into the new 3D landscape. It's powerful enough for a small to moderate-sized room, it provides essential surround codecs for the latest movie soundtracks, and it offers quick setup with...

Well-equipped and easy to listen to, but sonically not a patch on the class leaders

Pioneer seems to be pushing the envelope of what we can expect in an entry-level receiver. We really think they have cut the right corners with the Pioneer VSX-520-K. While we think a lot of users will miss the MCACC auto setup, we think the inclusion...

Amazing, a brilliant AV unit for the price. All channels crystal clear and all the features I needed, Bluetooth is very handy too.

Sony's midrange AV receiver improves on its predecessor with new HDMI features like standby pass-through and 3D compatibility, but it lacks a compelling reason to pick it over its competitors.
