Since I purchased the Sony STR-DH550 from best buy, I had no problem returning the receiver for a new one

Complements nicely my 65" TV and Onkyo receiver for a fine movie experience.

I would recommend this purchase for the value-oriented consumer looking for good home theatre sound and a fair price assuming you couple it with a good AV receiver (I coupled this with an Onkyo TX-SR606).

After a lot of online research and customer reviews from various sources, including consumerreports[...] on the best home theater systems & speakers, Onkyo was rated the best receiver and Harmon Kardon the best speakers in terms of price, quality and features

I paired with a mid range $200 receiver and love it.
