Interesting, anyone else like me and just turn on/off the tv whe you leave? I do this and mute the receiever, a total power on/off takes too much time. I have my 500 programmed to power on/off each component with an lcd pick, but was thinking about upgrading to the 900 and automatically assumed it wouldnt be a problem to use the on/off for each component without issue. A little dissapointed its more work than I would like. I still think I am getting the 900 though.
