Title: Great features but hollow sound
Product review: This receiver has every feature I wanted including MP3/WMA CD, and the iPlug Aux Input. They all work great. But the sound output is a big disappointment to me. I thought it might be the MP3/WMA file compression, but the radio suffers from the same problem. When they tuned this 200W amplifier with EQ settings, what kind of music were they listening to - trumpet solos ? There is no mid-range to provide "fullness". Its all high and low. The EQ settings are of no value, and the Loudness button is a MUST - without it the tinny sound is laughable. When the volume is low, there is not enough Bass & mid-range. When you turn it up the highs and the bass pound your speakers, and your ears, but still no mid-range.Function-wise it is a great deal and many people may think it sounds "fine". But Bottm line - if you really want Hi Fidelity, full-range rich sound, you might want to pass on this one.
