We use this receiver with 2 Infinity speakers, a DVD player, a CD player, a digital-to-analog TV adapter, and a cassette tape player. The sound for the TV is so much better than that from the TV speakers. There are a lot of features for the money, and it just takes some time to read through the manual to set it up.

I have been using a Onkyo 5.1 Channel Receiver to provide audio for my large HD LCD TV. My problem was the 'volume' levels would spike within a desired volume level on the receiver and suddenly blast my wife out of her office in the adjoining room. I therefore wanted to replace my Onkyo receiver with a Yamaha that had the 'continuous volume control' feature. Although the Yamaha still allows some volume spiking (especially when commercials phase into a TV program) the volume spiking seems less severe. I've had Yamaha receivers before and this one is just as impressive for the [$] that I paid for it.

Works as advertised. A breeze to connect up. The surround sound is driving my dog crazy. He keeps hearing voices and sounds behind him and starts to look around and growl. If the 5.1 surround can fool my dog into thinking there are other people in the house then that's what I call a successful system. It does it all at a great price. Buy it!

I'm just using this thing in a small to medioum sized room, with 5 channels plus a sub. The sound and power are exactly what I was looking for. The price is outstanding. I seriously can't think of a better value receiver.
