Slimline gives great room to breathe!

 

I just bought this two days ago and I am still learning the intricacy of the setup and calibration - I'll be able to give a better review once I've had time to real dig into it's nuances.

Great audio codecs and competent connection

No pre-amp out, no 6.1 analog in
