What's great about it: Sound Quality, Inputs, AirPlay, Audio Restorer, Video Quality, Aesthetics
What's not so great: Heat! Tricky to operate, Must have On Screen Display, difficult to Bi-Amp for listening area only
I am a saavy Home Theater veteran and I had a tricky time setting this up myself. Most of my problem was that I didn't have the receiver hooked up to a TV, as this was only being used in a 2.1 channel listening area before the TV arrived.
Once the TV came, setup was a breeze.
Sound Quality and Picture quality is top notch, without getting into your upper echelon brands (McIntosh) or Pre-Amps.
Video Scaler improved my picture quality noticeably after I hooked up comcast. Watching Seinfeld re-runs with this improved the mosquito noise and gave it a smoother look. It's not HD, and you wouldn't confuse it for HD, but it does look a lot better. Similar upgrade from DVD with Composite to Upconversion DVD player.
AirPlay is fantastic and I love streaming my music.
Set Up: Definitive Technology Mythos One (x2) Mythos Eight, Mythos Gem XL (x2) SuperCube 1 sub, Marantz Blu Ray and panamax 5100 Power Center.
This product has... Plenty of power for all my needs, Interfaces well with TV, Runs hot, Good multi-zone capability
About me... practical, Audiophile, Tech savvy
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome product for the price. First thing first if you spend the money on something this nice you need to get it professionally installed this is not a do it yourself job. One of the best things about this receiver is the hdmi video standby pass through. I can not tell you how many times I wanted to watch tv without the surround sound it helps. One of the other key benefits to the 7005 is that it is powerful enough to power even the most power hungry speakers out there. Now I know what you are thinking it's to much for my setup well it's not I had some bad old Sony speakers and it made them sound amazing then I upgraded to the new Martin Logan Elctro motions and it sounds even better. Remember wattage doesn't mean power but quality this had it all. But like I said pay the money to have Geek Squad install it you won't regret it.
I would recommend this to a friend!
