For what they are they're not too bad, the one I'm buying is one of the "Pro" series they make but be warned! you pay! and in this case you don't pay too much, you should be able to get the one I'm referring to for under $1,000.00 and for a surround-sound receiver with its specs, works out quite cheap.
If I had the money I'd like to get one of the new Denon units, near to perfection they are but above what I can afford right now.
