Whats up all?
If you haven't checked it out yet , it's well worth your time. The one feature I really like which is a first in receivers in the built in USB DAC. Thats extremely cool especially for people who are into computer music.
We have it set up in just 2 channel in our show room connected to a pair of Maggie 1.7's and as hard as a speaker to drive as they are , it does it effortless. It's very impressive.

    I think the amps are stronger and have more dynamics. I think without a side by side which I will be bringing one home to test , it's better then all previous models. It drove a pair of Maggie 1.7's very well which are hard to drive , most amps struggle driving Maggies , but Maggies are worth the struggle as they are incredible speakers , I just hate the look of them. I could never own them and put them in my house without getting a divorce.
    The Built In DAC is awesome , I could not believe the sound quality we got with it. In a Home theater receiver , I believe it's the best I've ever heard. No other receiver I have Installed had a built in USB DAC and performed like that.

    I just purchased it for $1900. Backordered at the moment but it's a nice upgrade from my VSX-1120K
