5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent receiver next to the competition
Bolo has had some really good prices on the Bolo days so I bought a new receiver. Now I recently bought a AVR-S960H in 2022 which was excellent but I was needing another receiver.I originally reviewed the S960H comparing against an Onkyo back in 2022. I mistakenly stated the Onkyo was a TX-NR6100, which it was a TX-NR6050. Very similar with the NR6100 having THX and 10 more watts of power.This year I bought the Onkyo TX-NR6100 hoping it was better than the TX-NR6050 which it was in sound quality only, equaling the Denon AVR-S960H and Denon AVR-X2800H.However the Onkyo TX-NR6100 just doesn't compare with missing features, weird on-line manuals that have numerous inaccuracies, and weird, none standard Dolby decoding that is mentioned in the manuals. The biggest problem that I was hoping was corrected with a firmware update for the 2 years that passed with the TX-NR6050 was the incorrect speakers, playing the wrong dolby discrete channels.As I stated this is even mentioned in the manual as Onkyo thinks this is alright. I have a 7.1 speaker setup and listen to discrete 5.1 Dolby soundtracks of Concert Music Videos. I want to listen to the soundtrack discrete with no up mixing with a 5.1 speaker 'output'. The Onkyo's surround channel signals will only play out of the 'back' surround speakers leaving the surround speakers quiet. This is by design and acknowledged in the manual! This made the sound inferior and unacceptable to me. My Denon receivers play the surround channels correctly through the surround speakers.Then the above goes one step further in displaying the incorrect number of channels output in the on-screen display on your tv. It will say a 5.1 signal input to 7.1 speakers output. This is wrong and should say 5.1 signal input to 5.1 speakers output. Since the "back" speakers are playing, it somehow thinks that the output is 7.1 speakers when only 5.1 speakers are playing, even if it is the wrong speakers.Also the Onkyo has no HDR10+ for it's 3 inputs that aren't 8K compatible. Not good IMO.So with the quirks in the Onkyo TX-NR6100, I sent it back. I replaced it with a Denon AVR-X2800H.I could had replaced the Onkyo with a Denon AVR-S970H but I wanted the added room correction upgrade with the X2800 which is Audyssey MultiEQ XT, S970 has standard MultiEQ, no XT. Plus the X2800 in a 5.1 speaker setup will allow Speakers B to be assigned to the back surround speaker outputs or BIAMP if you have the need with your speakers. The S970 will not do that.The X2800 also has Zone 2 preamp outputs that the S970 does not. Also the X2800 has one year longer warranty than the S970. The X2800 also has 5 more watts/channel than the S970.At the time I bought during Bolo days, the X2800 was less than $200 more than the S970, so I bought the X2800.The X2800 steers the correct surround channels to the correct surround speakers unlike the Onkyo and sounds just as good if not better. I have more features and a long warranty with the Denon AVR-X2800H as well over the Onkyo. Also the Denon has HDMI 2.1 inputs for all 6 inputs and will play HDR10+ on all 6 HDMI inputs, that the Onkyo can not!I honestly have nothing to complain about the Denon. It does everything right and sounds great! It's also compatible with 8K60p(A) "UNCOMPRESSED" and 4K120p unlike some.I didn't look at the Yamaha RX-V6A/RX-A2A twins as they were not compatible with 8K60p(A) "UNCOMPRESSED" , just 8K60p(B) "COMPRESSED". They were the same price as the Denon AVR-S970H and AVR-X2800H models. That being Yamaha RX-V6A price about same as Denon AVR-S970H, and Yamaha RX-A2A about same as Denon AVR-X2800H.The Yamaha model compatible with 8K60p (A) "UNCOMPRESSED" is the more expensive RX-A4A but I seen no comparable pricing around what the Denon AVR-X2880H was selling at. Very similar to the Denon but more power with pre-amp outputs. I didn't need either for the hundreds more it was selling at.The Denon AVR-X2800H is the best bang for your buck 7.1 receiver right now IMO.
5.0 out of 5 stars super - amazing - but not perfect - Denon AVR-X1800H 7.2 Channel AV Receiver
super - amazing - but not perfect - Denon AVR-X1800H 7.2 Channel AV Receiver - 80W/Channel, Wireless Streaming via Built-in HEOS, WiFi, & Bluetooth, Supports Dolby Vision, HDR10+, Dynamic HDR, and Home Automation Systems-There are many aspects of the Denon AVR-X1800H Receiver that are amazing. However, the Denon AVR-X1800H Receiver does exhibit some flaws. Despite the flaws, the Denon AVR line of receivers is probably the most practical option available.-setup - the on screen setup, using HDMI to an HDTV, with speaker testing is amazing!-audyssey - I could not get the Denon Audyssey system to produce anything that approached a reasonable experience. I disabled that feature. With audyssey disabled, I have been able to fine tune a wonderful sonic experience.-HDMI passthrough - as wonderful as this feature ought to be, it turns out that it is terrible. First of all, it demands to try to "upscale" all inputs, to a minimum of 2160p. With several computers that I want to display on my big HDTV, including a home data archival server, running the HDMI output from the computer through the Denon creates a completely distorted looking result. It's visually atrocious.-web interface remote control - this is a GREAT feature. Most importantly, the Denon can be controlled directly from any computer by finding the IP address of the Denon on the LAN and simply pointing to it. This is amazing!-Android / iOS remote control - the control interface via the Android OS app is the best and easiest way to operate, control, and adjust the receiver!-sound quality - super overall - running a 7.1 channel setup, using Monolith brand speaks I also purchased on Bolo, the surround sound experience is extraordinary. Using the Android or Web interface, I can adjust the levels of individual speakers to fine tune the sonic experience for each movie. The speakers are: Monolith T5 pair front - Monolith T4 pair rear - Monolith D5 front center - vintage (1984) Klipsch KG4 pair secondary front - ELAC SUB1225 Subwoofer.-note - the Denon AVR-X1800H is actually in the middle of the range or the similar receivers that Denon markets. However at this price level the Denon AVR-X1800H already provides what most people need. The addition AVR-X4800H AVR-X5800H AVR-X6800H provide more channels, and more "power", but they seem to maintain similar features.-Heos - have not used it and do not need it. I play all music via an HTPC dedicated computer running vlc media player, iTunes, Kodi, and so on HDMI erac output into the Denon for audio output.-conclusion - overall, except for the nearly unusable HDMI passthrough feature, the Denon AVR-X1800H is delightful.-
Equipamento com bons recursos e potência.
Acho a marca é uma das melhores, comprei esse porque o meu anterior estragou depois de mais de 10 anos de uso. Esse modelo foi o ideal para mim, porque tem a saída pré-frontal que posso ligar no meu integrado para dar mais força às frontais, dessa forma, não preciso de um equipamento muito potente para a minha sala de tamanho pequena/média. Uso na configuração de dolby atmos (5.1.2), com 2 falantes do teto. A zona 2 uso a saída também pré, que está conectada a um pequeno amplificador digital. No geral, estou gostando do equipamento e dos recursos.
Excellent Product Amazing Sound Quality.
As expected, the sound quality is excellent. Worth mentioning, the setup process visually aided and very easy. Hats off to the company. Value for money.
EXCELENTE RECEPTOR EL MEJOR DEL 2023
Configurando con un ajuste de 5.1.2 ya que si te lo permite, es de 7.1 canales, y a mi la configuración que elegí me funciona de maravilla, uso torres Yamaha ns-f51 y bafles Yamaha ns-pa160 bocina central igual, y la verdad es que con este amplificador suena de maravilla, quizá a las torres dejan que desear en cuestión de potencia, pero si se usa en habitaciones chicas o medias chicas como es mi caso, realmente no necesitas más potencia, en cuestión de su uso para música es fenomenal reproduces el HI-res de maravilla, siempre y cuando reproduzcas por HEOS o por AIRPLAY y por USB, en cuestión a su función como receptor realmente me impactó ya que se solucionó el input lag que tenían las generaciones pasadas de todos los receptores (YAMAHA,DENON,MARANTZ) etc, este receptor acepta un ancho de banda en cuestión del GAMING DE 40GBPS suficientes para las consolas de última generación, en mi caso tengo una PS5 y corre excelente, en fin es un receptor magnifico, sin duda volvería a comprar denon.
Great performance
Lovely product...Heat sink is getting hot after half an hour...thankfully not towards damage.... Extra fan is needed.......to maintain temperature...
