Too much for too little

"All the reviews I read on this receiver rated it top of the line. I hooked it up to my brand new Klispch Icon speakers with 10 gauge wire...and was totally under whelmed.

"I just received my Onkyo TX-SR876B and I am very happy with it. However I would like to give more praise to JR.com then Onkyo.
