Your new receiver supports the latest three-dimensional surround sound formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS: X, drawing you into the middle of the action you see on screen. And with 4K Ultra HD picture quality, and support for all major HDR formats including Dolby Vision, your viewing experience will be transformed. You’re in for quite the cinematic upgrade!

    I puchased this for the atmos sound , it really sounds good when playing an atmos or dolby demo off the internet. Small ll improvement over my yamaha reciever when in atmos but since there isnt anything streamed or on cable that utiizes it as of yet except demo clips Im not to impressed. If you are in need of a good reciever for the first time its worth it but as far as an upgrad,e to atmos its only marginal upgrade

    Purchased this unit to replace a 20 yr old Onkyo receiver that was giving us problems. We were losing sound intermittently. So far this unit is comparable with the Onkyo surround speakers and so far no sound issues. Interface fairly easy if you are used to programming these types of sound equipment.
