High quality receiver at an affordable price
Strengths: GUI menu, lots of ports
Weakness: none

This unit was perfect, providing very high-quality features liek full HDMI, upscaling, lots of ports, etc. at a non-astronomical price. I was looking at the comparable Onkyo 606, but the GUI menu on this unit pushed me in this direction, and that turns out to be a great feature.
