Have an AVR wanted to reactivate old boxes. The requirements were limited to ARC / CEC and Bluetooth, everything else is for me gimmick. Otherwise, there are in this price range only the "Pioneer VSX-329", which however does not have Bluetooth. For this price, the device is so unbeatable (if you can do without network support and automatic calibration)! ARC / CEC including Auto Lipsync works on my Panasonic TX-42EW30 without any problems, the device is easy. The connection via Bluetooth also works as if by magic. 24bit FLAC files can be played without any problems and the sound is overall a dream. The only drawback that I noticed so far: If you have recently used a source other than TV (eg USB), and you turn on the TV, the AVR wakes from sleep though, but on the last selected source (USB) and you have to manually switch back to TV. Perhaps I have simply not yet been discovered but that option here.
Notes: -Who The AVR as a 2.0 system operates must in digital TV signals the "Listening Mode" to Stereo / Direct switch because the missing channels are otherwise not output -The OSD is not displayed in the current TV mode (TV tuner internal) with ARC! If you might think it used to be 90% this source had broken down, with other sources of the OSD appears, but problems -The Unit has no video converter, analog sources can therefore only be output analog
