Harman/kardon AVR 340 7.1 channel Receiver

I have to agree with the previous reviewer that the down side is no HDMI input. But let me add a couple of more problems I have run into. I have my TV & Receiver connected via the 1080i component cables. When you use the EZ Setup for the surround sound, you have to have the receiver and TV connected via a 480i connection to see the on screen menu and go through the set up process. While changing a few wires to do this may not seem like a big deal, look at your entertainment center and think about what you have to move around to reach the wires. For me it's a giant pain in the you know what. Also it's really a 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound system. In the manual, it tells you if you want 6.1, you have to adjust the 6th speaker manually and you will lose some of the encoded sound. So while it advertises that it can be a 6.1 system, it is not recommended when you read the manual - so why say that it is in the first place.
