H/K DPR 1001 receiver
I was at circuit city last night looking at the H/K receivers and took notice to the H/K DPR 1001, the salesman said they just got it a about a month or two ago, its completely digital. They had it hooked up to their HT set up on display, with a H/K DVD and with infinity alpha speakers, it sounded amazing  think it sold for $999.
Does anyone use this receiver and what do you think of it? |

I got my eyes opened for this one, very interesting to hear about it's performance. Not big on the power rating, but a HK receiver 50wpc can sound better than higher rated receivers from other brands.

When I click on the harman site the price is $998. Must have been a typo earlier that was corrected.

I was actually somewhat curious on the reciever myself. Although never knowing anyone who has had it when I was at the audio store purchasing my 225 I asked the guy about it wondering is perhaps all-digital was the way to go. He said it made it more compact, eliminated alot of "crap" that wasn't needed. Personally I don't see what big degree of difference it would give, but it has to improve over something besides how slim they are. If you are looking though I would have to say just to look more towards the Harman/Kardon AVR-325, that is a better deal in my opinion.
