I replaced my old Sony 7.1 Receiver that I paid over $800.00 for with this Denon 2600h Receiver. The sound that's generated by this receiver makes it seems like you are actually at the movies. Please note that I am using klipsch speakers...2 front speakers, center speaker. sub-woofer, and 2 rear speakers. My family loves the sound quality of this Denon Receiver. The set up is fairly easy with the onscreen menus. I would recommend this Denon Receiver if you are looking for a good quality receiver at a decent price. I would also recommend using banana plugs to make the speaker installation a breeze. The Bluetooth feature is amazing for Amazon Music, - Heos... This is one of my best purchases in the last 5 years from Best Buy.

Good receiver, setup process with included microphone was easy, nice WiFi and internet radio options. 4K picture is very good and 7.2 surround is seamless. Recognizes my 4K Xfinity cable box. Make sure to use HDMI cables rated for 4K audio/video and hook up to the TVs ACC port. I recommend banana clips because of the limited space on the back of the receiver (see pictures).

I love the functionality of this receiver. It was easy to do tuning of the room, and has wonderful processing options for inputs. I like DTS Nueral:X to render normal LR stuff like tv shows to near 5.1. Menus are quick. It's passthrough is a nice feature to let my chromecast always play to my TV when I don't need speakers. Troubles: I wish the remote had a dim backlight to it, that would help see it it the dark. My play pause features don't pass through to the chromecast like a Sony one did. Similarly, it doesn't automatically turn on when it detects a sound from a source like Chromecast. I have to turn it on, then it sometimes doesn't handshake well so it will not request Dolby Digital +. Another item is that the auto off feature only works for non moving images and no sound. I can't get it to shut off automatically while the chromecast is just showing the backdrop slide show. It was marketed at being Google Assistant compatible, but as of review, it is unable to communicate with my assistant. It has been a couple of months now, and I haven't gotten any updates since opening the box. I hope this is not the case going forward, because I may leave denon after this.
