Pros Inexpensive unit, good input/output jack options.
Cons Unreliable remote sensor and optical sensor, warranty not long enough.
Recommended it? No

When my parents decided to "splurge" and set up a small surround-sound setup in their new living room, I helped them select and inexpensive and (presumably) reliable model of receiver, this Kenwood VR-405, which was actually part of a home-theater-in-a-box set that came with five speakers and a...

Pros Price, Value for $, 5+1 Surround Sound
Cons Poor FM Antenna Supplied, Favorite Stations Buttons Only on Remote
Recommended it? Yes

I bought my Kenwood VR405 as a replacement to my old Dolby Pro-Logic receiver because I wanted to experience 5+1 channel sound when watching DVDs. Before, I go any further, I want to emphasize that I am not an audiophile. However, I doubt that many audiophiles would be interested in such an... Read full review »

It's an OK receiver!

Pros Easy to use Set up isn't to difficult Headphone jack in the front Nice display
Cons My remote stopped working and it's only way to get bass boost. Subwoofer sucks.
Recommended it? No

I bought one of these back in high school, it came with a non-powered subwoofer so the bass sucked of course, but it's a decent system if you add a powered subwoofer.

It has a port for optical audio and coaxial audio so you can get some sweet 5.1 Dolby Digital, which it works pretty well... Read full review »
