Yamaha HTR-5950
$450.00
Released February, 2009
The Pros:Offers a wide range of functions to get the system balanced properly. Excellent price for the quality of sound the receiver can produce. Enough power to fill a medium sized room with sound without distortion or pushing the receiver too hard.
The Cons:Takes some time figuring out the setup, need to carefully work through the manual. Runs warm, need to make sure you have it in a well ventilated area. Speaker balancing is manual, no automatic microphone setup.
