Most helpful customer reviews 49 of 51 people found the following review helpful. excellent receiver..some flaws By Chinnu Pillai this is my first receiver and very happy to own it...cnet rated this model excellent for sound quality, user interface and connectivity...and overall rating was high on other websites too...really like on-screen GUI...makes life easy...helpful to understand signal info...and troubleshoot if there is any problem...just bought it yesterday...connected klipsch quintet 5 speakers....planning to do YPAO calibration next.. also analog (480i) to 1080p conversion is pretty decent... picture quality has improved...the advantage is having to run only a single hdmi cable to the TV update 12/11/2010 I have been using this receiver for 2 weeks now...there are couple of issues...lip sync problem while playing blu ray movies..there is a sync adjustment... but this happened in between the movie and I had to keep adjusting it ...alternate option is to stop playing and then restart it again...then there was no lag.....also noticed sound will pass for about a sec couple of times....I expect at this price to have a better product...another issue is with updating firmware..it is straight forward but a lengthy process...should be able to do this using USB instead of burning audio CDs!!!...it worked fine though.. update 1/10/2011 its more than a month now...works flawlessly...I played lot of blu ray movies and there was no lip synch issue ...I guess the one that had problem might be because of disc issues.....planning to buy two more speakers to try second zone feature..overall very happy to own it.. 63 of 68 people found the following review helpful. Great upgrade from my previous Yamaha By K. C Wilson I own a rx-v663 and upgraded this past weekend to the RX-V667. Skipping the 665 model was a good thing. This one has a great on screen GUI for changing the settings. It's an overlay, so you don't lose the video in the background when changing settings. It pops out from the left side and then you scroll up and down to pick the setting to change. Then those options are popped up from the bottom of the screen and you scroll right and left. 6 HDMI is more than enough for me, in fact I have 3 left over after changing out things. Biggest advantage is I am now able to plug in everything in to the receiver and able to change the label that shows up on the receiver and the tv screen when changing sources. My components running into the receiver are as follows Oppo BDP-83 PS3 Computer with HDMI interface (radeon 5770 so I get sound and audio) These next two are connected via Component video (R,G,B) Xbox 360 (optical out for audio) Wii To run all these the Remote has 5 HDMI buttons and 6 AV buttons. I can actually choose each source independently with one button, kind of nice. I also have the YDS11 Ipod dock, it works great with the new receiver. Interface is greatly improved with album art being shown to the left of the song title on the screen and browsing capabilty. This really looks a lot better than it did on the RX-V663 and is another overlay screen. Now they just need a good screen saver to go with it. This would all be worthless if the sound quality did not match up with the 663. Big one for me was continued support of DSD across HDMI. The Oppo BDP-83 plays SACD disks and so does my PS3. The 667 has a signal information selection and from the PS3 it reports PCM as it should since the PS3 converts it to PCM before sending the signal to the receiver. The Oppo using the same disk reports DSD back on the receiver. and yes the sound quality equals the 663. Sidenote: There is an audible difference in the sound when switching to Pure Direct Mode. I played John Hiatt's "Master of Disaster" which is a Hybrid SACD and switched between straight and Pure Direct. Pure direct seemed to have less bass, the straight mode was obviously making adjustments to the bass in the background. Honestly though this could be due to my speaker setup as
