The VSX-520-K was already a great little receiver but to meet its price point some corners had to be cut. The VSX-820-K rounds out many of those corners. While video upconversion is still not possible at this price point, for $299 you get all the great...

Natürlich muss man bei einem Preis von 400 Euro gewisse Abstriche machen, das liegt in der Natur der Sache. Konkret bedeutet dies: Aufgrund der fehlenden Videoumsetzung und des nicht einstellbaren Equalizers geht der VSX-820 nicht als...

This unit has lots of connections and will probably be adequate for most home theatre systems.

Reliability with Pioneer receivers (in my experience) is awful. I will never buy one again. This one died on me after about 15 months. And I do mean died. Nothing, NADA, wouldn't even turn on. If you are shopping in this price range, I would suggest...

-Great Sound, especially after running the Auto EQ with the Mic -Top notch build quality -3D ready, 4 HDMI inputs, and HD Sound Decoding -CHEAP!

The only thing I can think of is the OSD setup is a little cheap. Granted, AVR standards aren't that great, either... But having to move up to the $500 price tier for a good OSD is a little silly... Even at that point... most of the OSDs from ANY...

Excellent construction, incredible sound quality, and decent power. I like how it displays what decoder is engaged when you turn on a movie. Has every decoder I could see using. Even sounds amazing during sports games. Able to program remote to turn on...

It wish the OSD would work with HDMI but I understand that that is reserved for pricier receivers. Like mentioned in previous reviews the remote is lacking in back lighting... however even the more expensive Yamahas dont have back lit remotes

Good sound/power ; Good construction ; Great price

I was expecting a lot more out of the OSD - maybe this was my fault. It doesn't come through on HDMI, and even on component video it's pretty lousy (big white on black menu) Silly me for expecting a nice HDMI overlay, I guess. Feature is of no value to...
