Just another point of view and a correction(?) to HDAudio's review.
My 1050 has individual gain controls for each channel. You simply press plus or minus on the remote while the test tone for that channel is playing: left, center, right, right rear, center rear,left rear, and subwoofer.
I find the minimalist set-up just right for someone who isn't into 15 DSP configurations and other gadgets. On music, the 1050 is just short of bright sounding with better soundstaging and tonal balance than either the Marantz 8800 MKII or Denon 3800. Used as a pre-amp with both the C-J Sonographe 250 and Music Reference RM-10 driving the mains, the 1050 holds it's own against the likes of NAD and Rotel.
You can also run a cd player direct through the 6.1 inputs, bypassing the DSP's. This yield's the best audio playback.
The bangs, booms and grunts are all there when you go to the movies. I'm knocking wood when I say that I go weeks without firing it up and it never falters.

Product Weakness:	It's not a Theta
Product Strengths:	Build quality, easy set-up, does audio especially well for it's type

  Thanks for the info on the separate gains. I must have missed that in the manual.
