JBL - MA710 90W 7.2ch Bluetooth and WiFi Capable HDR and Dolby Atmos 8k Ultra HD Compatible AV Home Theater Receiver - Black

Sound quality is amazing. Just got it 3 days ago so I’m still getting things tuned in perfectly but very happy so far. Set up was very easy and the unit feels heavy and built well. Very clear sound at high volumes. It’s the best unit in its price range for sure. Really like the smaller form-factor too.

Great product I love the sound. It’s encouraging to get more JBL products. now, I will be getting some JBL speakers. This system is easy set up easy programming.

It’s absolutely awesome! I like it so much! JBL has very nice design and looks like IPhone in the world of receivers! The quality of sound is like in class “A-B”

The JBL MA710 is a top notch receiver. I really appreciate the minimalist modern design. It is packed with a bunch of modern features such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, eARC, Airplay 2, Google Chromecast, Bluetooth, Aptx Adaptive, optional Ethernet connection, and WiFi. It comes with 6 HDMI 4K with 3 inputs supporting 8k video and 1 output supporting eARC. The amplifier can connect up to 7.2 channels. The receiver looks and feels solid. It whoops 110W per channel with a max of 160 at 4 ohms and supports 2 subs. The unit comes with a quick start guide. The guide states to install the JBL premium app which I really think needs some improvements or redesigned, at least for iOS. In addition to the JBL premium app there is an EZ EQ application (room correction) that is recommended to download in order to calibrate your room to the ideal EQ settings. This app could be a little complicated especially for those who are new to this type of audio system setups. There is no guidance on what steps to take to start the calibration process. The EZ EQ app has some way to go. However, this can be easily solved with app updates. The receiver has a few options to customize the sound levels from each speaker connected. There is a setting to hear a tone from each connected speaker to make sure you are getting sound. You also have the option to adjust bass and treble and change the Dolby Surround sound and disable or enable the sound decoder. You can also change the settings to just hear stereo sound from 2.1 channels instead of all the channels. I listened to music through my apple tv 4k and I was able to get Dolby Atmos/Spatial Audio sound. The sound was superb. I also used Airplay to listen to music but the signal was not transmitted in Dolby Atmos, instead it changed to Stereo. In stereo it sounds good but Dolby Atmos/Spatial Audio is a game changer. When I used the Tv’s OS the receiver automatically changed from the Apple TV input to the eARC input so that the sound was from the television and not the Apple TV. Everything was responsive. I prefer using the Apple TV as I get the best audio (Dolby Atmos) and (Dolby Vision) video format going through the JBL receiver. The remote is simple but useful, you can change the inputs and change the settings with it. The settings menu shows on the receiver screen and also on the tv screen when a tv is connected. The controller also has an option to dim the receiver display. Lastly, batteries are included for the remote.The same buttons are located in the receiver in case you lose the controller. I have this receiver pair with the JBL Stage 2 series: 200P subwoofer, 250B bookshelf speakers, 280F floorstanding, 240H Dolby Atmos speakers and 245C center channel. Overall the receiver is responsive and it packs power. It has a great minimal design that would blend with modern decor. It is easy to use and set up. It supports most of the modern features, including 8K. In the box you get the receiver, remote, batteries, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth antennas, power cord and quick start guide.

Does not keep setting’s . You feel stupid for putting your settings after you turn the unit on each time.and the set up time don’t add up to the cost.
