Cons: cable, cable, cable.!!! Haven't replace my but it looks lousy. At lest Yamaha could have given us something better. Not really cons; The speakers could have been a bit elegant but hey i knew what i was getting. from Newegg.com Just go buy it! NOW!- Your family will hate you for getting such an awesome system while they sit on their plasticy Sony-DVD-player-which-wants-to-be-a-1000Watt-receiver-with-tincans-for-speakers (for which they probably paid more than for this).- Speaker cables are horribly thin 24awg, just buy some 14 or 16awg instead.- It doesn't have HDMI upscaling, or component to DVI conversion, but that's well known when you buy this and shouldn't be expected anyhow in this price class.- The outer box, when delivered, was torn to shreds. While this is a con for UPS, this is actually a pro for Yamaha's excellent packaging. Each inner box was made of high density cardboard, sealed super-tight and cushioning each component with lots of styrofoam. from Newegg.com HDMI inputs only allow for audio pass-through, but that's common in this price range, and a Toslink cable will provide fine audio quality. Other Thoughts: I'm extremely pleased with this system. I had another Yamaha HTIB system before this, but it was damaged during a recent move. I was happy enough with Yamaha's quality that I bought this one. from Newegg.com Pros: Best sound for the money. Detailed adjustments (but see cons)Tons of inputsClassic style, wood speakersYamaha quality. from Newegg.com Good power for a small/medium room. EXTREMELY ACCURATE SOUND. Yamaha quality! Cons: The sub is rather weak (it can quack on really loud, bassy music) but this only occurs when cranked wayyyyy up. from Newegg.com Cons: All Minor Cons: The remote is not user friendly (probably not a problem for you, but your non-electronicly inclined friend/mom/gf/wife/whoever will not know what to do and their head will explode); cat5 and shoe strings will carry more amperage than the wire that comes with it; HDMI audio and vidio is only pass through - will need optic cable from PS3 to reciever to bust up Liberty City in Surround Sound. Other Thoughts: Didn't find it anywhere on the package, but I guess the speakers that come with it are 6-Ohm; you need to change the setting from 8 ohm to 6 ohm during initial setup. You will definately seem cooler than your friends because you have a Yamaha sound system from Newegg and they bought a Sony from BB to match thier TV - Taxes are for people who can't find the internets. Newegg Should have clothes and groceries so i don't have to leave the house. from Newegg.com i hooked up my 360 and ps3, and it was complicated but i had to hook up the 360 using the component cables from the 360 to the receiver and than rca cables from the receiver into the component slots from Newegg.com it seems like it could perform well in a larger room, as it seems to have plenty of power to spare. from Newegg.com crank it up so the movie explosion shakes you, and it will protest. from Newegg.com i am impressed every time i turn on an action movie and i get that movie theater sound. from Newegg.com
