I wouldn't buy JVC if they paid me 888 dollars. I bought a home theater receiver from them about a year ago and it was the worst sounding quality I had ever heard. Maybe it was a lemon but I sincerly doubt that because I went to Audioreview.com and found that almost all of the reviews reported the same problem. Good luck but no thanks.
I was merely speaking of the merits of this deal - i.e. it is not as good one. I will refrain from making comments on deals in the future if this is not appropriate.
I'm no expert in electronics but if you look inside the beast, it looks like a high end amp. Separate capacitors for each channel. I'd really like to listen to one someday.
Guys, if you want to discuss the merits of this receiver, please start up a thread in the Receivers/Amp/Processor area. This area is for discussing bargains/deals. Thanks.
