I have had this unit for about 4 years now and it still has bells and whislte that I have yet to use. With 110 watts per channel it has enough power to even fill large rooms. I upgrade to this Elite from my older 26TX that died after years of good service, which kept me in the Pioneer Elite product line. There is not much more you can ask for at the time of my purchase ,07. I had this unit feed with my Pioneer DV 45A unit for the last 3 years and added my first Blu ray play Pioneer BDP 120 a little over a year ago. It now has a Pioneer BDP 320 along with the DV 45A and MIt VCR/ Pioneer Elite CDP M53 and Pioneer Ct M66R. Setup can be quick and clean or as down and dirty allowing you to make as many adjustments as you desire. I don't use the XM radio service or own a Ipod, but it came with a Ipod cable. the MACAA mic setup is sweet and lets you know that this system is running at its top level for your room. The only thing I wish on this unit is the ability to upgrade firmware so it could support the newest HD surround formats and HDMI level (comes with 1.2)
