Integra DTM-6 pros & cons

Pros

  • I streamed Pandora for hours without any loss or interruption of audio
  • The unit is nice looking, easy to set up, and sounds amazing

Cons

  • Turns out that this receiver claims to have 2 zones and be wireless but in fact zone 2 is connected via RCA so it can only be turned on/off from the receiver itself (or its remote)

Integra DTM-7 pros & cons

Pros

  • The numerous features offered by the DTM 7 all function perfectly, fulfilling the designer's goal of providing audio enthusiasts with a very comprehensive yet user-friendly receiver
  • Input options that will never say "No" to your other equipment
  • Build quality that matches it's gorgeous sound

Cons

  • It alters the timbre of women's voices. It gives them a silvery hue which isn't actually there
