    I am very happy with my avr. I paired it with a 7.2 polk audio set and couldnt be happier. Tv, video games, football, movies have all been elevated to new levels and its all very user friendly.

    It's been close to a month and really liking this receiver . My 12 year old Onkyo 7.1 Home Theater receiver went so I chose this one. Set up and operation are straight forward and no issues so far!!

    Not the power I was hoping for. This one is High power but not High Current. Takes more volume control to get the power I desire. Great for a smaller area

    This is a fantastic receiver for the money. I was looking for a receiver to cover me for the time being with updated technology and the ability to pass-through 4K. It can upscale to 8K! Having Bluetooth, Heos and the ability to connect to our smart devices is just a bonus. This replaced a 12 year old Yamaha, and you can hear the difference from all inputs, and I'm so glad it did. Setup was a breeze. For the money, this AV receiver is highly recommended!

    An awesome AV receiver

    The only negative thing I can say about this is that the HDMI CEC function, sometimes get confused. It is only happened a couple times over the past few months of ownership, but when it happens, it’s very aggravating because when you try to switch inputs or turn one device on or off, sometimes they turn the TV off or when you turn the device off, it will not turn the TV off or it won’t show the input unless you turn everything off and then turn it back on again. Other than those two times the function has worked properly and the AV system has been able to control everything. AV set up was easy and everything sounds awesome. Just wish I had the money to buy the more powerful unit.

    I bought this due to it being the only 8k receiver my local best buy had in stock. The first one lasted for about 3 days before going out. I returned it to the store for an exchange, and had to have the new one delivered. This one has worked flawlessly, but I have not used it at high volume due to having it hooked to new speakers and because I have neighbors to be considerate of, for the time being. This is the first Denon that I've owned and they were on shaky ground after the first issue, but I'm happy with this one. Good pass-through for streaming and movies and good sound on music. It's not the top of the line, but it's a good mid level receiver.

    Denon 7.2 HEOS home theater receiver - AVR-S970H

    I had another Denon system receiver that had to be replaced because the older model was destroyed by lightning. This is the next higher version. Denon makes a variety of high-end receivers depending on your budget. I read a number of reviews before buying and decided against another model because there were reports of the system overheating and reducing output to extremely low levels. The setup is fairly simple and this model has great reviews. I expect to get the same, great quality that I did from my last Denon receiver. With this receiver, you get fairly high-quality sound that won't break the bank.

    A perfect command center for TV and home theater. Drives 4 Klipsch speakers for an outstanding movie experience. I updated to this Receiver from a Denon DRA 800 H and do not regret it.

    This is a great receiver I’m sure of it. Unfortunately I never got to try it out because Best Buy chose to ship a unit with no accessories including no remote, no antenna, no calibration mic, no literature. Described as Open Box Excellent. Bought on Amazon instead. Will review the actual product there after using and experiencing it.

    Overall performance of receiver is excellent. Use it with a six speaker system. Sound and separation is excellent. Several options such as stereo, surround, and others is excellent to make sound fit room.

    Sounds nice, easy setup. I bought this amp and two bookshelf speakers at first, using them as the front speakers. The setup menu lets you add speakers as you buy them. Then added a subwoofer, now I got a center and two front towers.
