The reduced ergonomics of the product are sufficient to set up the speakers, for multimedia use I was hoping for better.
It works, the sound is good, as far as I can tell.
Purchased as a replacement for the 880, the equivalent of the previous range (2019), it works very well but no better than the previous model which was much cheaper. Hence the rating of only 4/5.
Good sound quality, but you almost always need a TV screen for some choices.
The amp often seems to decide on its own which source to use.
The user manual is in any case less precise than that of my previous amp (Denon).
