I purchased the RX-V867 in the hopes of using its additional HDMI output to drive a second TV in our kitchen. Unfortunately, my kitchen TV was not fully HDMI compliant and the V867 displayed an error message and prevented the main TV from showing video properly. In the end, I resolved this problem by using an inexpensive HDMI splitter; I probably would have been just fine purchasing a V667.
However, I really came to appreciate the 1080P upscaling for all HDMI sources and the networking features. The unit immediately recognized the Windows 7 machines on my network and was I able to access my MP3 collection. I have also been exploring the internet radio feature which is pretty cool, though slightly cumbersome given the sheer number of stations. I have my unit connected to a Polk SurroundBar 50 and some Sony bookshelf speakers in my kitchen as a second zone. The receiver sounds great and I really like the Yamaha on-screen menus. My only wish is that the Harmony remote people would have programmed more buttons to control Zone 2 and to tune the internet radio. I also would like to have seen compatibility with the Yamaha AV iPhone app.
