Experience immersive audio with the Sherwood Newcastle R672 7.1 surround sound home theater receiver. This A/V receiver can handle all your audio needs for any beginner or vet alike. Its range of surround sound formats including Dolby Pro Logic, DTS, Dolby Digital and more, will bring your favorite movies and music to life. The Sherwood Newcastle R672 is an excellent choice for those seeking a high-quality audio experience. Its brand name and model speak for themselves, and its features, including the number of channels and inputs and outputs, make it a versatile choice for any home audio setup. This thing is a powerhouse and will not disappoint for the price. Comes with remote control for an even smoother setup, although this unit is set up to start rocking right away, but you might have your own taste of course. My favorite feature is its d. comp feature, which rivals that of Denon allowing you to watch movies at low volumes and still sound amazing. To this day, I am not able to find an avr with that good of a d. comp especially for the price!
