I hate you!

I'm seriously considering the 863 at the moment, but there's no way I'll be able to get one at a price anywhere near close to yours.

Mine was actually at auction, I'm thinking from an AV store that went out of business.  I've got it hooked up to a couple of cheap bookshelf speakers now just to make sure it works and this thing has a ton of bells and whistles.

I can't wait to hear it in action once everything is hooked up to it!

Nice work. I have last years model (rx-v861) and love it! That receiver should serve you very well for MANY years.
