When it was released I really wanted one but could not afford it. Does anyone here have one and would like to share their thoughts on it? How does it stack up to current receivers? Anyone has a PDF owners manual?

I picked one up on eBay a few weeks ago. I got one with DTS option installed and mint in original box and everything for $400. I am really really happy with how it sounds in 2 channel and 5.1. Definitely worth the $400.

Congrats. I remember looking at these and not being able to afford them either. That one looks in great condition.
