Amazing receiver
I've owned my Outlaw RR2150 for about two years, and it's a great piece of gear. One thing that this review did not touch on, and which is definitely worth mentioning, is the very high quality phono preamp built into this receiver. I wish that you had given that feature a "spin," so to speak, as part of this review. That may have bumped the four-and-a-half star rating up to about four-and-three-quarters, at least.
I agree that the remote is lame, but it does work very well... much better than the stylish remotes that came with my Cambridge Audio gear.
And I'd add that the bass management works extremely well, allowing for precise tailoring of the output to my bookshelf speakers and sub.
Overall, it seems that they spent the money in the right places when designing this receiver. I'm OK with the cheesy remote and lack of digital inputs when I'm getting this kind of head-turning audio performance at a very reasonable price. And make no mistake, this thing will turn heads, and not just because of its looks. Even casual listeners will say "wow."
