Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’m not an audiophile. But a friend of mine who designs and implements sound systems all over the world recommended this one over an Onkyo 777. For the price, it works wonders for my game room. It doesn’t do what a $2000 receiver will do, but for what was needed, it goes beyond. The set up was a breeze. I don’t know how people fumble that up. Heos is amazingly simple to set up as well. Hooked it up to my LG 74UH8500, and now my wife insists we watch the entire second season of the crown on it. So much for game night.

I purchased this receiver on sale and acquired a great all around receiver. Blue tooth, AirPlay, atmos, 4K, HDR, PS4 and plenty of inputs. A great product for anyone starting or upgrading a home entertainment system while not breaking the bank. I’m pushing klipsch reference speakers and they sound great. Mic included to auto calibrate sound until you become familiar with manual settings.

This is a great receiver for the $. I bought it in a sale and was $20 more than the 1300 model. Great sound, great DSP, global internet radio, built in Pandora and Spotify, lots of HDMI inputs, and zone 2 capability. Plus a three year warranty. Easy to set-up too.

I was replacing my AVR2307-ci, which I loved the sound it had. The upgrades with the on screen display and auto setup are nice. Sound is good so far. May need to tweak a few things. 2307 had a warmer sound. Only complaints are the small display and the front of this looks kind of cheap for an $800 device.

Picked up this receiver to drive my 5.1 system - Sony Core Bookshelf front speakers, and polk audio rears (temporary). I originally had a Pioneer VX302, but it was a lemon so I took it back and picked this up. More than enough power to drive all my speakers in my 11x11 room. The UI is not the smoothest but it does a better job at dialing in your speaker settings than the Pioneer (i.e. setting crossover for individual speakers where the Pioneer didn't allow that). I like the layout of speaker terminals; all terminals are on the horizontal plane, and it makes it easier to plug them in. Nicely labeled. They even include a stand for your calibration mic which is nice, though I use my own stand (USE A STAND WHEN CALIBRATING). .

This Denon is an upgrade from my 8 year old Pioneer receiver. As technology goes this Denon has everything I need. It pairs with all my other devices and the sound is just what you would expect from a receiver of this quality and much more. I shopped and did a lot of research and the only "Con" I can find is there is not a receiver out there that can seamlessly connect with Wireless Headphones without a Bluetooth transmitter or adapter. I know there are a lot of people out there asking the same question I am about why this can't be done or if there is one I didn't see it, within the price range I wanted to be at. I can live with that. This Denon is a great addition to my Home Theater.

My old Onkyo died after 15 years of service so I headed over to the Magnolia guys with great excitement. The team did a good job explaining the new receiver options to me. I tried really hard to like this Denon but in the end I returned it. I just couldn't get the warm sound I was used to out of it. I would describe the sound as very clean and powerful but to me it felt more like my studio monitor system I use for my keyboards and recording studio. Very neutral and clean. I ended up buying the Yamaha RX-A870 because it gave me more control over the sound elements and I was able to get the warmth I was looking for

After purchasing a 4k tv, realized I needed to upgrade my receiver with HDCP 2.2 technology to ensure compatibility with 4K Ultra HD sources and TVs (all HDMI inputs and outputs are compatible. Has plenty of power pushing my polk towers and my 5 channel surround. Has alot of music features as well including Airplay 2 and HEOS. Always used Yamaha receivers but decided to try Denon and not disappointed. However I could use some more power to drive my speakers. Definitely a great buy.

Just what we were looking for: ease of use , sound quality and wireless ability with Bluetooth and Apple Airplay!

I bought this receiver with my new 4K television. The functionality and sound are everything I expected and more.

I upgraded from an Onkyo receiver I purchased a couple years ago that wouldn't handle the 4k video pass through well and had some other issues that Onkyo refused to address. The picture on my TV was 10x better with this unit from a variety of HD sources. While I didn't like the switch from a universal remote to this one initially, I've grown accustomed to using it now. It is a bit of a pain having to keep up with remotes to everything though. The only other oddity is this unit is markedly quieter than my previous receivers even though the wattage isn't that much different.

Easy set up with good quality sound. Makes watching movies fun.

Easy to hookup and has great sound. Works well with Amazon Alexis

I think denon receivers are the best great sound and very easy to set up

Very easy to set up. My husband passed last year and had always set up our audio/video devices. So the baton has passed to me, I was a little scared, to say the least, but I took photos of the existing inputs and wiring, and I was done in 30 minutes. Everything worked perfectly on my Harmony Elite Remote once I added the receiver to the My Harmony app.

It was time to upgrade my system to 4K and I started with the Denon AVR 7.2-Ch. Hi-Res With HEOS 4K Ultra HD HDR Compatible. In the few months I've been using it I found it has been a definite upgrade to the sound quality plus it's AVR ability allows me to change between sources easily. Denon also has apps for iOS and Android to control the AVR.

Very easy to setup, on screen instructions, has an app for remote use over WiFi, HEOS and Apple Air play works seamlessly. Love the voice enhancement feature to make vocals more well defined thru center channel and understandable when watching movies and listening to music. Will definitely buy again with out thinking twice.

This home theater receiver has a wonderful sound!!

Denon does it again.This an amazing receiver.this was purchased to replace the only denon mistake ever made,the dreaded 3313ci they quickly replaced it with the x4000.The sound and separation is out standing I'm listening as I watch the sound stage is phenomenal! Get 4K TV enjoy movie theater excitement at home

This receiver boast 95 watts per channel but sounds more like 125 watts per channel. Denon has done a good job incorporating plenty of HDMI connections and they even have an app so you can control the receiver for your phone.
