    Thanks for the reply. What I want to know how the 50.2 compares to a Yamaha RX-A2000. I'd like to know what you like about the 50.2 and what you might not like about it. Pricewise, the 50.2 is close in price to the Yamaha RX-A2000. Maybe this has already been discussed, but I'd like to know how Integra's Audyssey room correction system compares to Yamaha's YPAO room correction system.

    From what I read on AVSFORUM's Audyssey does a much better job that YPAO. Also Audyssey is on other AVR's and is not proprietary to Integra. Its in Denon's, Onkyo's, Marantz and other brands.

    Yamaha's YPAO is limited to only them....

    This link will give you a bit more info on what each version of Audyssey does http://www.audyssey.com/technology/multeq.html

    The Integra has MutliEQ which EQ's the sub as well as all the speakers. Something important to note. Satellites doesn't refer to your surrounds, but all your speakers lol...

    Personally I am waiting till the cost of the MultiEQ XT32 models drop and then getting one of them. Its got more than enough filters for my sub to ensure good sound all around :smile:
