I'd get something like this for $100 more if it had signal sensing for on/standby, trigger output, automatic input switching and CEC. Even just CEC that controls on/standby, volume and source switching with a trigger output would be enough. Without those features it adds yet another remote control to juggle in exchange for superb measured performance that is most likely inaudible compared to other products. The user manual and product documentation are inadequate, too: information is lacking about CEC and exactly how to use the different settings. Given reports on ASR about their quality control and product durability, this gets a "no thanks" from me.
