Pros Easy to follow on screen setup menu. The colorful on screen images really make it easy to set the receiver up for the first time, as well as make changes on the fly, which is also very easy to do. Audyssey and the included microphone worked well right out of the box and helped me to calibrate my speaker levels, distances, etc. without having to spend a whole lot of time. I have other receivers and it can be frustrating trying to find that sweet spot. This was the easiest and best speaker calibration I’ve done so far. The receiver sounds really, really good. I have the standard 5.1 surround sound speaker layout. It's in my living room right off the kitchen. And movies still sound great even when people are moving about in the kitchen. It's also very intuitive when I switch audio sources. It makes the effort to switch to the optimal sound layout based on the source that I select. It has somehow learned when to automatically switch from Dolby Digital to DD Plus to Atmos. This is what I like the most about the S970H. Easy wi-fi firmware update. I've only had one update so far and it was straight to the point. Cons HDMI Control with my Firestick. One thing that is kind of annoying is the fact that no matter how many times I set up my Denon to automatically switch to the Firestick when I hit the Firestick remote's home button, it works for a little while then after a couple of days it mysteriously stops. So if I watch a Blu Ray, I then have to press the Firestick’s corresponding input button on my Denon remote to switch to the Firestick. To be fair, maybe this is a Firestick issue. All in all, this is still the best AV receiver I’ve ever had. If not for the HDMI Control issue I would’ve rated this receiver 5 stars.

Does a very nice job and is easy to connect. Paying slightly more to get the 90 watts/channel is worth it. Got this as a replacement for a failed 10 year old Marantz. Nice to be able to walk in the door and play whatever was playing from your phone in your car- instantly on the Denon. Sweet!

This was recommended to me by a professional installer of home AV systems. Mainly because of its general quality, and higher watts per channel for larger speakers. I never go above 65% volume with my Klipsch 7.2.2 system, as it is very loud in the sound controlled room. The user interface is pretty basic, and the software seems old, but the reciever does walk you through set-up automatically so you should be fine. I can't say it was "easy" to set up, it was simple enough for me, but I don't imagine that someone who isn't somewhat well versed in AV gear would make it through without some instruction manual time.
