Pros: Great price - I payed $150.00 after seeing this in a Newegg email blast. I did my research too - lots of companies trying to sell this for far more than MSRP. Go to harmankardon.com and see for yourself. Now they're sold out though... 3 HDMI inputs, 2 spdif, 1 coax, etc., - lots of digital options here. Slick looking too - the lit volume control is a nice touch, and I like the large remote but it will take some time to get used to some button placements.
Cons: So far, I can't use my mini Atom based PC through this AV receivers HDMI switch. My TV says "no signal' , although it works when I hook up directly from the PC to the TV. I have a call open with HK about that.
