Summary: JVC RX-558 Makes a Great Paperweight
Review: An absolute out-of-date dog. As a JVC fan I bought one of these for a "great price." After cutting a hole in my entertainment center, and spending 11 hours trying to hook my DVD player up (2 trips to the stores and tech support calls to JVC and Magnavox), I still didn't have a functioning sound system. The DVD input on the RX-558 is 6-channel RCA ONLY...S-video, optical, or coaxial need not apply. So unless you are sure your DVD output matches up (a salesman even assured me it would work with my DVD player)-- AVOID this DTSless mess of a receiver.

Review: I got this reciever and a set of Cambridge SoundWorks Speakers for a little hometheater set up in my bedroom, nothing too fancy. Sure it isn't Dolby Digital, but it has great sound. If I ever need Dolby Digital I can alway by a DVD player with a built in decoder. Great Buy.
