Unless you’re going all out with a home theater budget in excess of $10k, this receiver should do everything you need it to do. Excellent sound right out of the box — should improve with break-in. Very good match for my B&W 602 S3s. I’m not running a true surround set up just yet, only 2 channel. But it does a very good job with movies and music with only the 2-channel set up. I used to run a vintage Marantz receiver. The Yamaha is clearer, more open, transparent than the Marantz, but does not quite have the same bottom-end response. My next addition will be a plasma screen. And with this receiver, you can get a bare-bones screen as it converts all of the video signals to component out, as well as provides sound.
