Strength:

Speaker connection can use bannaplugs.. 6 channels, 6 channles out..

Weakness:

Weak amp power, Weak sound..

Ok.. Ive had this reciver for some time now, more then a year.. Its a piece of garbage, I hate it..
It has weak amp power, Distorts at 50% volume.. It isnt no 100 watts x 6, with all channels driven its more like 50 watts x 6, figure it out from power/watts it draws..
Ok.. so everyone else seems happy, either they dont know what good sound is, or my reciver has something wrong with it..
I used to own a Technics 790, this reciver was awesome, twice tha reciver tha AX6 is.. I am using mirage speakers now, and was using mirage speakers then.. Tha 790 had no problems driving all channels and recreating tha movie signal thru tha mirage speakers effertlessly.. This isnt tha case with tha AX6.. Tha 790 was 125 watts x 2, or 100 watts x3 + 50 watts x 2, and guess what folks, tha 790 drew more watts then it drove out.. Tha 790 could even drive a 4 ohm load showing some effert.. Tha AX6 cant do this either.. Tha 790 I could drive speakers at 80% volume before any clipping could be heard.. I can hear clipping start at 50% on tha AX6..
I will eventaully change tha reciver to something else..

Strength:

Nice design. My wife liked the blue lights ;-). You can use passive subwoofer. Bi-amp.

Weakness:

Faulty. Expensive to fix.

I was satisfied with it.
I used to listen CD's but I've plugged my SB live into it too.
Everything was cool till my kid turned volume to max. and blowed the famous IC's.
Now 40% of volume causes overload shutdown.
Repair costs over a half of the new unit.
I'm going to junk it and buy Sony (with DTS, DD and cool DSP)
Anybody wants to take this sh.t from me for free ?
