Reliability

Many, many people have been saying that this receiver is unreliable. I didn't believe that Aiwa could possibly put out a product with such a high failure rate. When Fry's put this receiver on sale, I thought it was a great opportunity and grabbed it. Within three days of opening the box, the left channel went dead. I haven't even played 10 CDs!

Both my wife and I have had previous positive experiences with Aiwa. With this experience, plus the feedback we've gotten both online and from friends in the business, it's clear that Aiwa has really lost control. I don't plan to buy another Aiwa product.

Clean Atrractive Style, High Power. DTS decoder

no bass and treble controls on remote, small display info.

This is an outstanding receiver for the money. 120w into 5 channels produce crisp clear sound with the JBL speakers in my home theater system. My only gripe is with the tone controls, there is a built in electonic equalizer for tone controls. This is accessed only at the receiver. There are plenty of digital inputs to connect a number of sources.

Lots of DSP settings, customizable EQ, lots of inputs

Construction of amp is awful, it blows out after about a week of use. I do NOT recommend this product.

This would be a great receiver if the subwoofer channel and the left front channel didnt blow out after a week of using it. I took it to an aiwa specialist that Aiwa recommended me to and I thought he fixed it, but a week later it blew out again. After reading what people had to say about the D77 I would not recommend buying one of these.
