Yes, the 6100 comes with a 606 receiver. The model number is different but its the exact same receiver. You are probably used to those HTIB's with built in DVD players and proprietary speaker connections. I've owned them in the past and I will never make the mistake of buying one again. Those systems are not upgradeable and only work correctly with the speakers included. Using different speakers can actually cause a fire with many of those setups. This is not the same. This is a true standalone receiver with a set of standard speakers and subwoofer. You can easily upgrade the speakers with this as your budget allows. This is one of the few HTIB's I would ever recommend to anyone because you won't have to replace the receiver and its a very good receiver at that. You will want to upgrade the speakers eventually. They are good for starters, but as you get more and more into your home theater you will tire of them and desire more. It happened to me and many others. The upgrade bug will bite!
