It isn't bad for the price....
By Tim B.
Pro's: It's a basic receiver with Bluetooth. Works well with my android phone. It's aggressively priced, and works well enough for it's purpose. 4 HDMI inputs 1 HDMI output. It's powerful enough for a medium sized room. It's not going to blow you away but for the price I wouldn't expect it to.Con's: The inputs do not seem to be directly selectable, so you have to scroll through HDMI 1, then 2, then 3 then 4 to get back to 1. If they are directly selectable on a programmable remote, I can not find the codes anywhere which leads to the documentation. The documentation is lacking (understatement), as it does not tell you much. I'm still trying to find out codec's it supports directly, and I've emailed their technical support a couple of weeks ago asking and got no response. There is a cooling fan which can be noisy, but it's really not that bad.

Poor volume levels
By Stephen J. Curtis
I picked this up for less than $160 after shipping which was a good price for this unit. The main attraction was the integrated karaoke mixer. I wanted to connect my laptop to this through HDMI, play mp3+g songs and sing overtop of the music. It did all of that as expected but even with the mic volume at max, it was still not loud enough (the music would get loud enough, but the mic volume would not). I tried 3 diffrent mics, although some mics were louder than others, the volume level was not sufficient on any mic. I tried a few blu ray movies and the volume would only reach an acceptable level when the unit was near max sound. I decided to return this unit, buy the Pioneer VSX-1022-K (does not support karaoke) and then get a separate karaoke mixer.Other notes:1) HDMI selection: As mentioned in a previous review, you cannot directly select an HDMI source, you must cycle though them (but this does not bother me)2) Limited connections: An optical or USB input would be nice. You can only get 5.1 sound though HDMI.3) Rear speaker volume levels: You cannot set the volume for the rear speakers independently. The volume level options are 1) Master volume 2) Subwoofer volume 3) Center volume 4) Right volume (includes front right and rear right), 5) Left volume (includes font left and rear left). This was a big deal because my rear speakers are further back than the recommended setup.4) The fan in this unit is pretty noisy (didn't bother me much, but i could see this beeing annoying to others)5) The bluetooth worked well with my iPhoneMy recommendation:This would be a decent purchase if you are going to use it in a small room or you don't need the volume levels to be too loud. This is probably one of the cheapest units with integrated bluetooth, but personally, I would pay a little more and get a better unit.
