We're bowled over by the entry-level model of Yamaha's 25th anniversary amp line-up.

Class-leading sound ; Useful features ; Fabulously easy to use

No networking or zone 2 output ; Little manual control of RoomEQ

nice

good sound quality for the price, easy to setup, auto-switches decoding based on inputs: for instance, if you enable 5-channel stereo (stereo upmix), you can toggle back to DTS if your source is suddenly outputting 5.1 channel. lots of options for...
