Easy to set up and a great amp by Andrew G.
I've had this amp about a month now. Setup was very easy. I had it playing Blue-rays and doing everything else before I opened the manual. Having one wire from each component and only one wire to the TV is fantastic. The amp must be on when you watch TV. I have FiOS and I can program the remote to use the amp for sound and that remote can control it as well. I also have a universal remote, but the FiOS remote does everything I need.
The sound is great. This replaced an older Harman Kardon with digital inputs but no HDMI. I have older DCM Time Windows for my front speakers, Klipsch center and rear speakers and an Infinity sub. A Sharp LCD TV, Panasonic Blu-ray (for it's Netflix capabilities) and FiOS. I'm not an audiophile but I enjoy good sound. This amp is perfect for me.
Configuration is easy (again, I didn't need the manual). You can label the inputs and you can reassign inputs. EG: I don't have an iPod, I have a SqueezeBox. There is a specific connection for a "Dock" but my SqueezeBox has an optical output. I plugged the SqueezeBox into the TV optical input, reassigned that input to "Dock" and then renamed "Dock" to "Music". After I did that, I was on my computer, and since the amp is on the network I decided to see if it had a Web front end (again, I hadn't looked at the manual yet). I went to [...]/ and a very intuitive setup screen came up. You can also backup configurations to your computer and reload them if necessary. Setup is considerably easier from your computer vs scrolling around using the remote.
The list of good things can go on for a while, in the end, it's an amp, it has a good price point, it does what it does, it does it very well and it's easy to use. So far, I have only 2 minor complaints... I have to agree with the review that said the controls seem 'cheap'. they do, but I'm using the remote 99% of the time so that doesn't annoy me. Considering that EVERYTHING is made to sell as cheap as possible, they have to cut some corners, and it looks like they did there. Time will tell if they cut corners on the power supply or any other critical items. Besides that, my only other complaint is cosmetic. Why do they need a sticker on the front showing Microsoft Windows support? All of the other logos are subtle, the MS one is a colorful sticker... the only color on the unit. This is a feature I don't plan to use as I have a Logitech SqueezeBox for music from my network. My questions is: why ruin the clean look for this sticker? Clearly those are both nit-picking complaints.
I ordered mine from Forrest-Electronics in the Amazon Store [...]). They had it on sale for about $200 off the normal price. Shipping was very fast and it was a new unit in a sealed box with a USA warranty. I gave Forrest-Electronics 5 stars for their service.
