This is my 2nd Denon receiver, the 1st of which is still working just fine after 9 years — justed need to upgrade to HDMI.

Set-up was very easy — almost suprisingly so — I’m running all HDMI — connected an LG blu ray player, a Direct TV HD DVR box, and an LG plasma tv — no problems whatsoever. No lipsyncing issues, no missing sound, etc, everything works as it should.

Speaker set-up was remarkably straightforward — I was dreading the day of hooking everything up, as I’m not the best doing this type of stuff, but even I was surprised at how simple the overall set-up was. 2 channel sterio listening is simply WOW — a true delight. While this unit sports many nifty features, the one that counts the most in my book, is audio playback quality (how good does the damn thing sound!) — and sound quality is this unit’s main strength.

Sounds fantastic playing through a pair of B/W CM4s (also a CMC center channel and a Velodyne sub) — soundstage is wide and open, with crisp highs and solid, earth thumping lows — instrument separation is very nicely done — sounds like a live band is playing in your living room — Movies sountracks are spectacular in the Neo cinema mode. Video output is crystal clear. I’ve tried some DVDs, to see how well the upconversion is working and it looks really good to my eyes. Maybe not Blu ray good, but damn good — cannot complain one bit in this department either! Everything sounds so good, that I didn’t even run Audessy feature as it already sounds good enough for my ears, but I’ll try it out at a later time.

Input switching works fine — menus and GUI are not the best, but are simply enough. While other complain the remote is terrible, I’m perfectly fine with it — I’ve programmed it to act as the TV & Blu ray remote as well — nice to be able to consolidate a few remotes! The user manual is decent, though could be a bit more clear on a few points — that being said, I’ve haven’t had any problems really getting anything to work if I

You really need a balance board to fully enjoy this game. It offers a full exercise plan. Keeps track of your exercises, and calorie loss. I like it.

Clear. Comes with a flexible direction straw. It’s a Park Tool Item! Not much more to say.

I’ve only used this mount a couple of times so far but am extremly happy with product so far. I put it on the left side of the dash in my Prius where it is out of the way and doesn’t block my view. So far it has stayed in place and doesn’t move. I can put the mount with garmin 1490t attached in the center counsole to keep out of sight when car is parked. No rings on windshield from windshield mount (dead giveaway to thieves) and don’t have to keep taking off and putting on windshield mount. Would buy again from retailer who delivered when promised.

If you need an extremely high quality product, this is the one for you…I can’t imagine that the canon version would be any better…Images are clear and sharp, just as sharp as the lens without the converter…I got this from 17th street photo at less than 170.00…a great price and delivery was ground, (in two days.) Their service is great…I use the converter on the canon 50mm 1.8 and 70/200 f4 L IS….amazing clarity and magnification…I’m extremely pleased with this purchase.

Love it! So easy to use! The carpet dries quickly and so much dirt came out of the carpet!! Can’t wait to do all the carpets in the house.

The suction is quite adequate! This seems to be the best hot water extraction carpet cleaner I’ve ever had and I have owned four (4) other, different models. This Hoover F5914-900 is easy to assemble and use as long as you follow the instructions in the manual. It isn’t really that much bigger than that little Hoover model… the FH50030, which was my prior model and I think that one was a waste of money due to the weak suction. I wish I had bought the F5914-900 in the first place. Wow, you won’t believe what you see when you dump the dirty water container; this machine really gets a lot of dirt up and makes the carpet look fresher and newer.
