Price Paid:  $350.00 from Major InterNet merch

Summary:
With an impressive list of features and specifications, the Sony STR-DE997 is an excellent product for its price. Its surround sound modes really work, and sound quality is very good. The user interface, especially the remote control, will take some time to get used to. Overall, the product is very good. See more details at www.epinions.com/content_169478557316

Strengths:
Powerful and excellent sound quality. Superb surround sound modes. Unbeatable connectivity. Price.

Weaknesses:
Remote is quirky and poorly documented.
