3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for the buck, June 5, 2002
By 
David Ledee (Weston, Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kenwood VR-505 Surround Sound Receiver (Electronics)
Good power, specially in movies. In music is a little flat. For the price is not bad, but what you save in this piece, you will spend it in speakers to achieve good musical sound. Dont even try to listen to music in the 5.1 (dolby prologic)mode. It will sound like if it was comming out of a can. If you are a music enthusiastic, I would consider another more upscale brand like Harman Kardon or Denon. But for cinema is very good. The DTS and Dolby Digital decoders sound very potent and clear. Is very easy to set up and tune.

3.0 out of 5 stars Call me old-fashioned, January 15, 2002
This review is from: Kenwood VR-505 Surround Sound Receiver (Electronics)
I know I'm hopelessly out-of-date, but would it kill these guys to put bass, treble, and balance knobs on the front panel?

Actually, in general, my complaint is that this receiver, like many other digital audio products, severely limits one's ability to make these basic adjustments. Failing to put a few simple knobs on the front panel does NOT make it a better product, just a cheaper one for them to manufacture.
