Great amp. Been using it for over 5 years. It is a little dated but still talked every tech I throw at it with ease..

If features float your boat then Pioneer's VSX-1015 is an attractive option but only if you prefer an upfront presentation, which suits explosive blockbusters but may leave you searching for more subtlety elsewhere.

The Marantz PM-4001 has been around for a while but still competes with recently revamped models for sound quality and also claims the most competitive price tag in this test.

Bought this receiver in a package with all eight HK speakers included, seven years ago. It still sounds as clear as the day it was unpacked. Be warned if you live in an apartment your neighbors will probably not appreciate the sheer power this thing...

Looking for a secondary HDMI receiver that has both good value and sound can be hard. I tested comparable Denon, Harman Kardon, Onkyo and Yamaha receivers and settled with the Marantz. I found the Marantz to be warmer sounding and superior in music...

However, it's not just with the delicate stuff that the Rotel excels, local band Bonjahbango's laid back funky beats are really bought to life, demonstrating excellent control over the bass and cool use of the harmonica. The Rotel offers detail and...

A solid-sounding, gutsy performer, but the NAD doesn't quite manage the intricacy on offer elsewhere in this price class

The details surrounding my technical background are really quite inconsequential. Summers in retail, winters in correctional facilities for the perfectly capable. Desperate for the dollar, I'd often drug customers and dress them up like French maids....

If you’re a home theatre enthusiast or have the time to read a manual, the VSX817S should be easy enough to use. It offers a large range of inputs and plenty of functionality, and is only slightly hindered by its inability to decode HD formats and lack...

I've had this receiver for about a year and I really like it. If you're looking for a good quality entry level receiver that sounds great but isn't a "nut rumbler," this Denon would be a great choice. It gets only four stars because it comes with...
