I have a SC-1222-K, from newegg, and absolutely love it. I moved up from an older yamaha, and the difference in sound quality is amazing. It made everything out of my chorus II's sound cleaner and more distinct. I have it set up on my home network, and it works flawlessly with my 6 terabyte NAS, streaming music. I'm very happy with my purchase. I didn not have the greatest receiver before, and I'm just getting a decent HT set up, so I cant comment on the HT experience, but with music, and 3.1 for movies, it's great
