When I was shoping around for receivers, I chose Denon (AVR-590)for great features at the price point and that it came with Audyssey (MultEQ, DynamicEQ and Dynamic Vol).

For me, Audyssey really made an improvement in sound quality as I have an extremely sub-optimal setup and listening area. I did end up changing crossover points (personal preference), bumping up my center channel level, and am running the sub about 4dB hotter to suit my ears.

For watching movies at night, with little kids in the house, DynamicEQ and Dynamic Vol are great!

I have to agree with Alan and the others though and say that it will not compensate for a poor setup.
