Logitech Harmony One FTW!

[DetroitBORG]

@synadude Agreed!

[vsaroca]

Are you going to be reviewing the Revue?

[DetroitBORG]

@vsaroca The Logitech Revue was discontinued, I don't think it's worthwhile at this point.

Would be a great match with my Pioneer Kuro!

[DetroitBORG]

@nazhif1 Yes it would! Love the Kuro :)

Excellent video Mike! Very nice home theatre reciever.

[DerAst1]

Where have you bought this that cheap?

[snakedoc1306]

Is it just me or does anyone wish Receivers got rid of component and composite inputs/outputs?

I wish this had 2 subwoofer ports...I would definitely buy it!

500W power consumption very high !!

Nice Receiver, I've got a LX-72 myself and its a really good sounding amp. Its great for movies but I still prefer using a dedicated Stereo amplifier for Music. Does this receiver have the Microphone for tuning the MCACC?
