Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings + Leo and Diane Dillon = pure magicA depression era story that is just as timely as it is enchanting, this is a stunning picture book for the ages. There's just not enough...not enough money, not enough food, not enough fish for her daddy to sell at the market. Hard times have come to the forest, but Calpurnia wants to turn them back into soft times. With her little dog Buggy Horse and a tip from old Mother Albirtha, the wisest person in the forest, Calpurnia finds a secret river and uses the pink paper roses from her hair to catch enough beautiful catfish to feed the whole swamp land --with some left over for Daddy to sell. When she tries to find the river again the next day, Mother Albirtha tells her, "Child, sometimes a thing happens once, and does not ever happen anymore....You caught catfish when catfish were needed...you will not find the river again." This story by the Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Yearling and literary icon Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings is about living in a time of want, yet it is overflowing with riches--stunning language, mystical happenings, wondrous, wondrous artwork. Beautiful in all ways that a book can be beautiful, this unforgettable picture book is a classic in the making.

1 yr review of buying a used RX-V6A
Style: Receiver
GOAT amplifier for a 7.2CH amp for such good price!
Got it for even cheaper because I bought it used. Apparently was a demo unit at an expo.
The amp is notorious for blowing up the HDMI passthrough chip but it did not happen to me. It supports HDMI 2.1 with ease!
Very sharp and sophisticated amp with not a lot of buttons. Most of it can be controlled by a remote or with an app, which is easy to setup. If not, follow the manual.
Decent power too. 100W/channel. Enough to drive my Klipsch bi-amping Dolby Atmos Speakers. Drives them with ease.
This is a 1 yr review. And despite owning a used product, which was on an expo (assuming it was used heavily), the amp is running strong after much usage even a year later. Has all it's functionality intact.
Best 7.2 CH amp ever. Yamaha YPAO really makes the effort of speaker tuning easy too.

RX-V6A
Style: Receiver
The biggest problem I have found is the tiny screen. Otherwise it is a solid AV receiver for any small to medium sized room.

Plug n play with PS5
Style: Receiver
Pros:
huge sound
PS5, receiver, and LG tv can all be turned on simultaneously with one remote
No settings to dial in, to make, just sounds good out of the box
Cons:
Should have bought this sooner

Stops working after it heats up
Style: Receiver
This unit can’t stay running for any period longer than 5 hours. The components start to heat up and the sound goes out completely. The audio will only return after the unit has been turned off and cooled. A complete waste of money.
