Customer Reviews
Awesome Suprising clarity of sound. Simple to operate. Excellent quality.
Shipping was so fast I was amazed.
Excellent! Just recieved this item from Amazon. Product exceeded expectations. Hooked the reciever up within minutes and the sound quality is excellent. Very easy setup dispite mixed reviews. Great price on Amazon as well.
No USB Host! ! ! The Amazon Product Description clearly indicates the presence of a USB
Host on the front panel of this receiver. The product I received has none. This was a deal breaker for me. I did some research & as far as I can determine, the European model DOES have this feature but the U.S./Canada version does not. Also, the price has dropped twice in the week since my purchase but Amazon apparently will no longer price match themselves.
