I haven't used it either, but I'm sure it's quite a nice unit. You should really try to demo all the receivers out there to see what your preference is. for around 650-700 check out the Pioneer Elite vsx43tx, it's 700 delivered and with full warranty. In my opinion, the 43/45 Elites and the 525's are the two most highly regarded units in this price range. The sound differences between these receivers could be minor so it could come down to features, but try to audition them to make sure.
