Reviews

  • Sony STRDA5200ES

    With its groundbreaking graphical user interface, three HDMI inputs, and excellent sound, the Sony STR-DA5200ES is outstanding and innovative A/V receiver, with only a handful of frustrations -- including some video upconversion issues -- spoiling the party.

  • Yamaha RX-N600

    Digital music fans will find a lot to like about the Yamaha RX-N600, but its dearth of HDMI options will frustrate HDTV owners.

  • Yamaha RX-V2600

    The Yamaha RX-V2600's seductive sound is matched by its up-to-the-minute features and stellar build quality, but its video options fall just short of the best we've seen.

  • Yamaha RX-V659B

    As long you don't need HDMI compatibility, the Yamaha RX-V659 A/V receiver offers good sound quality, a full panoply of features and a solid value.

  • Denon DHT-500

    Denon's panache for design and performance pulls through on this modest home cinema system, which is well worth the money.

  • Denon AVR-1705

    As long as you don't need tons of power, this is the midpriced receiver to get.
