    I use it for my garage set up for outdoor parties and I get tons of compliments! Great value and lots of adjustments and I would definitely buy it again!

    Works really well. We are happy with it and the great service we received from Carter and his partner from the Geek Squd.

    A fine replacement for my dead Panasonic unit. Only issue was that my existing sub-woofer connection was not compatible with Denon!

    Great for my wife’s work with having multiple HDMI inputs (even though 4K is a little overkill for them) and not too heavy.

    Upgraded an older 5.1 Pioneer to this Denon to allow 4K/HDR pass through. Auto calibration with included mic and receiver setup was very easy and sound quality is fantastic for the price!

    overall good receiver, but recently i've been having weird issues where the receiver is slow and buttons are delayed for 5 to 6 seconds , really weird, at first i thought it was batteries or remote but it did the same when i turned knobs and buttons on receiver, then all the sudden it started working fine again i got a 4 year warranty,but it i would have to change my rating to 1 star if i have to warranty it in under a year

    Very clean sounding but not a lot of power. I have to turn it up past 50% to even start getting volume. Running small speakers at 6 ohms.

    Returned for a Yamaha tsr700 to give more juice to my KEF bookshelfs. This would probably handle more sensitive speakers like Klipsch very well

    Great receiver. I was a little disappointed with the app that goes with it. You are very limited in what you can do in the app.
