Price Paid:  $850.00 from Magnolia

Summary:
This is a very well built receiver that can handle everything I have asked of it so far. The setup program is easy and accurate, although it set my front speakers to large, and I had to change them to small. The measurements and eq setup were very impressive. I am still learning alot of the features, and eventually I will put the second room controls to use once the patio is setup. Dollar for dollar, I think this receiver looks and sounds better than the competition.

Strengths:
MCACC auto setup feature (they actualy include the mic, unlike Denon's 3805)
Construction & finish

Weaknesses:
mic stand is a small piece of foam
No HDMI connections
