System "learns" TV remote, so don't have to use a second remote. Big footprint so TV can set on top of it. Only use is for TV News in the morning. $200 is pretty cheap. We'll see how much it improves clarity/voices. Click to expand... This thing arrived. Easy set-up. Easy to teach it the satellite remote. Like it better than the broken Bose it replaced for a couple reasons. The sound is outstanding compared to the TV. It has 3 modes, one simulates surround, one stereo and one straight out the front. Not sure how much difference they really make. There is a row of little LED-lit icons on the front that are used for a number of things, including like a volume bar. This is useful as the Bose had no visible indications other than an on/off light. It has auto on & off. It can "learn" your TV or cable/sat remote for volume and mute. The only reason for us to keep the soundbar remote is for the Day/Night setting. "Night" equalizes the volume within a show and for commercials. As we often put on a "sleeper" show at night to fall asleep, leveling out the commercial volume is a feature we like and use, and this one really works. The Denon doesn't have quite as much bass as the Bose, but it cost less then half as much and bass is not so important for the morning news or a nighttime sleeper. And hopefully will not break after a year. All in all, we like this unit. We'd buy it again. In fact, we are buying another one for my mother. Reactions: afterlife2

Click to expand... It allows you to digitize your Vinyl collection. Basically you run the USB cord to your computer and you can record straight to your computer as the record plays. Not sure if there's any other functionality. Reactions: herbu

This for my TV and Projector, so I can plug both on my receiver and not have to keep unplugging everytime I wanted to use the projector or TV.

Enjoy! I have the 103, (no "D"), and love it. Lately the unit quit ejecting after playing a disc. Neither the button on the unit nor the remote worked. Had to power down, then back up to eject. Sent email to Oppo. Got a quick reply. Unplug for an hour, hard reset, restore factory settings, turn off BD Live. It worked. System is fine now. Great unit and customer service! Reactions: DTS
