Reviews

Sony STRDA5500ES

The Sony STRDA5500ES is a follow-up from last year's excellent '5400 and now includes DLNA streaming.
Pioneer VSX-1019AH

The Pioneer VSX-1019AH delivers an excellent feature set and outstanding sound quality for its price, making it our top mid-range A/V receiver pick so far.
Polk Audio SurroundBar 360 DVD Theatre

The Polk Audio SurroundBar 360 DVD Theatre delivers excellent sound from a single speaker bar, with the lack of built-in Blu-ray being the only real sticking point.
Denon AVR-789

The Denon AVR-789 sounds great and is fully featured, but isn't the easiest receiver to set up and use.
Onkyo TX-NR906

It's not often that we fall in love with a piece of equipment, but the Onkyo TX-NR906 receiver is the answer to our technological prayers.
Yamaha A-S700

The Yamaha A-S700 is a 90W stereo amplifier which features retro styling and the company's ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) system.
Harman Kardon AVR 355

Tailored towards the casual listener rather than Harman Kardon's usual hi-fi customers, the AVR 355 is solid, with great features, but somehow lacking.
Yamaha RX-V1900

Yamaha's mid range 7.1 channel receiver supports DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, as well as a bunch of streaming radio formats.
