Perhaps it's only natural, given violinist Vadim Gluzman's spiritual roots, that his latest recording of 20th century repertoire showcases music by Leonard Bernstein, Samuel Barber, and Ernest Bloch.
It amazes me that what passed for a premium feature in A/V receivers two or three years ago can now be found on entry level models. That is the beauty of progress! Nowhere is this better exemplified than in the Denon AVR-689. At an MSRP of $399 it is hard to believe that this unit is so jam packed with bells and whistles.

The Canton Chrono speaker system proves that you cannot judge a book solely by its cover (although I thought the front baffle lacquer finish was pretty slick looking anyway).
