Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought my first Denon in 1996 and should never had let it go in 2020. I thought I was upgrading to the newest audio formats by getting a Sony. The Sony was a lemon from the start, and finally the video portions went out in January, so I gave it away. I bought this Denon to replace it and so far, it hasn't disappointed. The sound and video is excellent and set up was a breeze. I've used the same Polk Audio surround speakers since 1996 and paired with this new Denon, they still sound great, too.

This receiver has everything I need for 5 speakers and a subwoofer. It is not equipped for WiFi (the next model up gives that feature). Overall, it is easy to set up and offers excellent sound.

Fantastic 5.1 Surround Sound Receiver! Easy to set up and at 70watts for 5 speakers (I have Polk Advent speakers), it produces plenty of sound for my size room of approx. 300sqf. Price was very reasonable as well...

Replaced my 20 year old receiver for this and big changes in technology. Sounds great, easy to setup, and learned about and use the hdmi pass through. Treble and bass control and individual speaker volume. All I need for my 5.1 system. Lots of settings to make it what you want.

I have been waiting a long time to get my hands on an AV receiver with fully operational HDMI 2.1 (bug free) for use with my gaming consoles. After reading about all the issue's with the earlier ones I avoided AVR's until I could find a reasonably priced 2022 model. Enter the Denon S570BT, a great option for those looking for an entry-level 5.2 capable receiver that fully supports HDMI 2.1 out of the box. This AVR has a good MSRP price, and is a steal when on sale! After several days of playing games on both PS5 and Xbox Series X, I can confirm that all games perform flawlessly, without any noticeable latency problems, whether using standard 4K/60 or the faster 120fps mode. It's buttery smooth too! Please make sure you only use certified HDMI cables so you don't have issue's with the screen blacking out and/or audio cutting out. I was plagued with black screen drops in the past, when I initially started 4K gaming on PS4 Pro. Changing out my non-certified cables eliminated the issue. Sound quality is very good, especially considering the low price point and lower watts this receiver is pushing out to my Polk towers and rear surrounds. I run a 5 channel surround setup in a room that is roughly 12x10 feet, and this gets plenty loud. Setup is a breeze and walks you through everything. The included mic is used for audio calibration so it can make corrections based on your room. Make sure to take the time to do this! I can't comment on movie listening since I only use this receiver in my game room, but I can tell you that the directionality is spot on with this receiver. I played some COD matches and could easily tell where other players were running around. I finished the new God of War on PS5 and it was quite a sight to behold, as well as listen to, when playing on resolution mode with working 4K/40fps. My only nitpick with this receiver would be that using the remote to make volume adjustments can be finicky. On all other brands of receivers I've used in the past I've never had any problems adjusting the volume, but on this Denon when you press and hold the volume it changes far too quickly and is hard to really dial in the right volume. Instead you must rely on pressing the volume button one press at a time to get it where you want, which can be frustrating. It's a minor annoyance, but something that Denon should try to address on future AVR's. That said, it's possible (though unlikely) that Denon could release a firmware update to address this. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase of this Denon receiver, and I highly recommend anyone looking for an entry-level 5.2 receiver with 8K/60, as well as 4K/120 support out of the box to look into this one.

Pros: Love this! It minds its own business! Survives Michigan winters in my detached garage Bluetooth range is unbeatable Con: Volume knob and source selection knob position should be swapped. Everyones is used to the volume knob on the left. Would prefer traditional physical buttons like the old school versions. Need a TV to set up first before moving it anywhere else Can get very warm if you just leave it on with nothing connected

nice sounding amp! movies are acoustically awesome - given my klipch speaker setup. Easy to setup for room nuances with calibration mike, Able to bluetooth to my phone for great audio source

Awsome equipment i love it staff was great.not exspensive.

Easy to setup, basically does all the work for you. Sound quality is fantastic.

This is my third denon receiver in about 25 years and I have enjoyed each one. Easy to set up and attach to a variety of inputs. Sounds great, too.

Sound is very good for the price. I have this receiver paired with a Samsung TV. The CEC connection is spotty at best. Sometimes the receiver comes on with the TV , other times it does not. I am not sure if the receiver or TV is the issue. I have tried resetting both devices with the same results.

Excellent home entertainment receiver. I upgraded my previous Denon receivers to 4k and the quality is exceptional as always. Pairing one of these up with a 5- or 7-piece speaker/subwoofer system is incredible! Easy setup as well.

I am very pleased with this receiver My last demo avr 1704 lasted for over 20 years. It was time for an upgrade. The receiver performs well and has all of the functions that I need. The price point is even better. I have only had this unit for less than a week and so far no complaints. My cousin has the same unit for years and is pleased as well

Overall I like this receiver. The sound quality is excellent. The volume is good, it's not a powerhouse but it's loud enough that it can annoy the neighbors and you don't need to turn it up that loud. I would give it 5 stars but the Bluetooth is just about useless. Sometimes it connects good, most of the time it takes multiple attempts to connect and sometimes it won't connect at all. If the Bluetooth was adequate I would be very happy with it. I have 8 other Bluetooth devices that connect effortlessly so it's pretty cheesy that this one stringless struggles so much with it. I thought about returning it over the Bluetooth issues.

Great value! Sounds great! Calibration and setup were super easy.
