    It is very similar to the Denon AVR I use in my HT rig. I have been very pleased with mine and at 75 wpc it has plenty of power to drive my RT55i, CS400i and F/X300i speakers as loud as I care for them to play with very good sq. I like Denon AVRs for HT.

    The price is ok....Denon is a Polk friendly product. Honestly, I'd step up and buy more than you need. I'm not sure where you're buying it from....home? :wink:

    But I'd look at Onecall or Newegg honestly, unless it's for a second hand rig. Keep in mind, we MAY have differing ideas. You should PM me NAP.

    Okay. Lets summarize. Price = not bad, Polk friendly, and one vote for good experience with. Seems to point to a definite purchase. I will check out Newegg first to satisfy the whole due diligence thing. :cool:

    I had/ have a Denon AVR-1905. Great SQ for the $$$.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
