    This is a really good system at a great price. I didn’t need to spend a ton of money for what I was looking for. This performs the job really well and we’re happy with the price and how it’s performing along with the features. You can control the system wirelessly and it was really easy to setup everything in less than 15mins.

    This receiver was very easy to install, gave simple step by step instructions, and got me up and running in minutes. I just wish the remote was capable of connecting with my TV so I could have 1 less remote to keep up with. Otherwise, this is a great receiver for my 5 speaker surround sound system.

    So I watched The Blues Brothers in 4k last night. I couldn't believe how it looked and sounded. The Denon's auto set up for the speakers is so easy. I have noticed such a difference in sound quality and placement. Get it and get the blues brothers in 4k, throw on that extended cut after you set up the sound and don't thank me cause I'm an introvert.

    Not the easiest to set-up, but once you do and get it to your liking woooooooohoooooooo. You really need to do some research and make sure this is the right head unit for you, especially if you already have speakers. This does not work with any kind of sound bar, so don't waste your time. Works great with PS5 and X-Box series X.

    The previous owner of the house I bought left an set of 5 Bose surround speakers installed. However the receiver he left didn’t have an HDMI port so I bought this and after a quick set up, I was in awe. This is serious receiver that doe everything I need it to do.

    I ordering and receiving 4 Pyle ceiling speakers from Amazon. I noticed that their Bluetooth Activate system would only handle 2 speakers. Looking for a good receiver I noticed the Denon was at a good price and had positive reviews. Hooked it all up and it sounds amazing. Streaming, FM and AM.

    I purchased this unit as a replacement for an ars-650 thinking I didn't need the extra " bells and whistles" of the 650 but, I was wrong. Having said that, this unit is great for the price. It keeps the Denon quality sound but has less features than my previous unit.
