Escape the everyday with spatial surround-sound From easy Bluetooth wireless streaming to the heart-pounding thrills of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X soundtracks, the TX-SR494 deepens enjoyment of daily life with great sound and smart features. Seven channels of high-current power give you freedom to choose a speaker layout that suits. Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer* or DTS Virtual:X place sound overhead or behind if you don’t want height or surround speakers and both Dolby Surround and DTS Neural:X are on board. Rear surrounds, bi-amped front speakers, or Powered Zone B audio are also an option. AccuEQ with subwoofer EQ and AccuReflex for 5.2.2-ch Dolby Atmos-enabled systems clarify sound in any space. As the heart of your home theater, the TX-SR494 has HDMI terminals supporting HDR and 4K/60p video, while the GUI with OSD over HDMI, Zone B pre-/line-out, and Vocal Enhancer function make this receiver a joy to use as well as hear.

- Powered Zone B Audio or Front-Channel Bi-Amping: The Height/Surround Back outputs can alternatively be used as a Bi-Amp/Zone B speaker output to drive stereo speakers in another room with a 5.2-channel setup in the main room. You can also bi-amp your compatible front speaker pair.

Got a great deal on this.
The receiver is easy to set up and easy to use. I currently have it paired with some Polk R 200 and S10 speakers. It powers the speakers well and sounds good too.

Fantastic receiver
Bought this because i couldnt pass up the open box price. It may have been open box but it came looking brand new! No scratches or anything taking away from its look. Super simple to setup and adjust settings as needed. Everything is pretty straight forward if youve setup your own stereo system in your home. Tied with my JBL tower speakers, And acoustic audio center speaker it produces some really crisp sound.
