This 8k receiver gives you a lot of bang for your buck. Very user friendly and easy to set up. Very pleased with the dialogue enhancement. Purchased mainly for home theatre and highly recommended for that purpose. Plenty of power for our large room.

Possibly the best of the mid tier AVRs IMO

Easy to setup, easy to use (IF you use the app) and sounds great. Perfect for a middle ground AVR. I use it to drive a 5.1 setup and a Zone 2/B. Allows different sources and the phone app makes management of the receiver super simple.
Pass through of 4k at 120Hz is supported and works great, so it will support the latest consoles connecting to a quality display without issue.
Much better than the Sony I had previously and as good as the Onkyo and Yamaha I had before that.
I only ding it for ease of use because without the APP, good luck.

Purchased to replace older (over 15 years) Yamaha receiver. Noticed a much cleaner and better sound than my old Yamaha, but this may be due to latest technology. Easy to balance using microphone. Glad I made the purchase.

I bought this due to all other receivers in the price range being sold out completely during the Black Friday week. This just appeared and I bought it blindly.
I’m happy I did. Dolby Atmos sounds Amazing and Dolby Digital sounds great. I was on the fence because it only advertises it to work with 4K at 120 Hz and 8k pass through.
I have a 60 Hz 4K Sony 750H 75 Inch TV and it works perfect with no complications! So if you have a 4K 60 Hz tv and am thinking about upgrading in the future to 4K 120 hz or 8k , this is a great Receiver for you.
Easy setup, music services simple to use but will have to use the app HEOS . So many choices to use, seriously! AVR remote is the app to control the receiver from your phone which is nice.
Very clear and simple setup assistance through the Denon Receiver guide on the tv if you never have set up a receiver before.
I would recommended it as a mid grade receiver due to cost and options provided.

Wow. The Denon receiver is one of my best purchases I have made lately. The calibration program for the surround system speakers is incredible. The speakers I have have never sounded as good as they do, now. I love my "new" surround system!

Outstanding Performance! Zone 1 runs our 5.1 surround sound system and zone 2 can blast the game outside on the back patio while I grill same channel or separate music from zone 1 in the house.
Excellent sound…

Found this as a great AVR that will not break the bank. The new models as of 2021 work great if you are looking to use HDMI switching for 8K or 4K 120. Power output is great for most home user looking to get into the base Atmos setup or need the second zone. With supporting HDR10, HDR10+, Dynamic HDR and Dolby Vision it should support most users video needs. But the reason that I really needed the X series over the S series is the upgrade from Audyssey to Audyssey XT room correction. I found a very big difference in the sound with room correction between the two version with the XT making a big improvement in the sound.

Very nice receiver, using it for 7.1 surround setup, watching movies and listening to music. The movie watching like local cable and 4k streaming and 4k movie cd with dolby atmos/dolby vision. The dolby atmos and DTS works well on the AVR. Make sure you have the right cables. I also use this receiver for streaming apple music(airplay), works great and sounds great. I am not using the video pass through , i have this setup from earc(AVR) to earc(4k tv). So i can't tell you about the 8K upscaling.

Best Best Buy purchase I’ve made in several years. I had made up my mind that I was going to get the one that was 850 bucks, then the kid that was working talked me into getting the one that was over $1000… But another one came in and said you don’t need all that, this is exactly what you need… $669. He sounded like he knew what he was talking about in this receiver, streams my Apple Music, Spotify music, Amazon prime music and all the rest. I went out and bought the kid a gift certificate for dinner I was so impressed with his honesty. He was right, this is everything you need to have amazing theater sound as The best hub for all of your music. Could not be more impressed. The loyalty BEST BUY just bought from me it’s nothing short of thrilling.

Sound quality is excellent, set up was easy and straightforward. The HEOS works great, I can turn music on and off and change songs/streaming services anywhere in my house. The only minor complaint is that I would prefer a nicer on screen menu program and an easier way to adjust specific speakers such as the center speaker or subwoofer without having to adjust everything.

Very good receiver at a good value with ability to handle 8k when the tech is actually accessible. Unfortunate everything isn't even accessible at 4k yet. Just a few DVDs.
