ABEX, I live near Augusta (Winthrop). Been hear for most of my life. I compared it (XR-50) directly with a Pioneer VSX-41. Slightly, I mean very slightly less power. Much cleaner sound. To me, much better imaging and detail. ...

I loved my HTR-5590. Very heavy, powerful, great features. I sold mine for a great deal. I may be biased, but the XR-50 sounds better. Like Vergiliusm, I struggly more that it is not a "brand" you equate to quality. Keep...
