Cons developed hissing problem; no 5 channel stereo mode; could have more inputs

For the first three months of using this receiver I absolutely loved it! The sound is incredible and it has tremendous power. I had tried other high-end receivers and by far this was my favorite.

Pros Good sound.
Cons Just not great value for $$$.
