Some brand disappeared, but good stuff never die. This is a MONSTER AV Receiver. As home theater amp it delivers 100w X5, and 120w X2 as for stereo sound. the AV-10 deals with Dolby Digital DTS straight out of the box, although laser disc users with AC-3 titles will have to 'special order' the DE-1 RF demodulator. That aside, the AV-10 is equipped for everything you can throw at it, its D/A section quantising up to 24-bit, and handling 32, 44.1 and 48kHz sampling rates. I would assume that an AV-10 of the future, should things come to pass as hoped, would add 96kHz. Also provided, as if to pander to boy-racers who think that ambient sound effects have some merit, are 'natural' and 'hall' settings. At least they resisted 'cathedral', 'jazz club', 'loo', 'abattoir' and 'brothel'. Weight 35lbs, and was $1200 USD Info: {url removed}
