This is a great receiver although Pioneer has already replaced it with a newer model. If you have a chance to get a good deal on this model it will not disappoint! The only thing it lacks is iPod/Droid control support, I believe the newer ones include this feature. Also, upgrading the firmware is not straightforward, in fact, I have not figured this process out yet. I would urge caution on buying Pioneer products from PCRush, they are NOT an authorized dealer although they told me via email that they were prior to me ordering. I only found this out because some of my receivers' connectivity have too much play and are having some minor issues maintaining a signal (In fact, I'm currently using the HDMI 2 out because the main out quit working).
