I bought one to replace my 2012 Harmon-Kardon. Which, that older model never really supported eARC very well. Or it required some kind of voodoo magic that I never attained access to. It's paired with my even older (2002ish) cheap JVC HT in a box 5.1 speakers. The automated sound balance setup works well for me. eARC works flawlessly from the smart TV we bought this year. The only complaint I'd lodge is volume up/down is just... odd. It scales odd. It's slow to respond (to me). A long press can produce far more volume than you might intend. But you get used to it.

Does anyone else feel that Denon just sounds flat and lifeless compared to older models? And that the build quality on the Yamahas really took a dive compared to models from just 5 years ago? I just can't get past the new Yamaha facing and uni-knob.
i have multiple systems so i go through a lot of products. have owned many products from all the major manufacturers. For many years Denon was my go to brand. Always had great build quality and sound performance. Over the past 5 or so years that has significantly changed. My last unit was one of their upper "Made in Japan" models and it was just flat. Spent months tweaking settings on the unit and in the app and it did not really improve.

Sold the Denon and tried out Yamaha (Both separates and previous generation Aventege level models). Overall I liked them better than Denon in terms of sound quality and construction. For those that like to tinker with settings Yamaha is the most flexible. However the newer ones have not won me over and they have a lot more built-in protection nannies.

I have also tried a number of Onkyo / Integra units and those have been a surprise hit. The newer units with Dirac are hard to beat at their price point. They were hard to find last year and were selling at a premium over MSRP, but are now readily available.

I was one of the lucky ones that scored this for $250 before taxes. I wanted it for a modest 5.1.2 Atmos setup and 4K/120 gaming with my PS5. I have it connected to a Sony A80J OLED and Klipsch Reference Theater Pack satellite speakers for center, height, and surround, and using a pair of Klipsch R-41M for the front.

For the most part, it's been fine. The only disappointment that I have with it so far is that I can't seem to dial in the front L/R speakers to match the center. I've already tweaked the levels and tone, as well as the crossover manually. Also when I initially completed the Audyssey (sp?) Calibration, the dialogue was too low to my liking without having to adjust it manually. Overall, I probably would have returned it and tried the Onkyo, but for $250, I can't imagine getting anything better for that price. So, at this $400 price, it'd be hard for me to recommend it.

I struggled with that L/R matching the Center issue and read in several places that it is typical for Denon owners to turn up the Center level and bump up the crossover following calibration. Thats what I did and my issue was resolved. This was experienced on both the x1200 and x1600 models using two different sets of speakers (old Pioneer Andrew Jones) and Klipsch Reference Premiers. Fingers crossed you can ultimately resolve that problem.

EDIT - if you havent already, might try the folks at avsforum. for additional help.

I've always liked Yamaha and agree with your assessment if you're talking about the Costco TSR-700. I had the 700 in my system for over a month and just didn't like it and also couldn't get used to the robot look and tiny display. I ended up going back to my old Onkyo TX-NR676. A few days ago I grabbed an open box Yamaha RX-V385 for $155.00 just for the heck of it. The Yamaha is a downgrade in almost every way but sounds amazing in my 5.1 system. Really wish I would have jumped on the older Yamaha TSR-7850 before Costco got the new modelFrown

😆 Heard that! But for example my 400 back in the day Sony dtr had 110 per channel 5.1. You pay more today and get less sadly. Wish they could at least keep it the same price point and wattage. I know it has two or four more channels depending on atmos etc but still.

I got the Onkyo tx-nr6050 a few weeks ago and just got it dialed in, but was wondering if this Denon unit would go on sale. Not sure if it worth a switch as the Onkyo sounds pretty good, and has a hell of a UX for setup. My speakers are 24 year old Sony towers and surround, were great for the price and still going strong, but needed to add 2 back satellites to get the 7.1.

The only complaint I have with the Onkyo is the occasional random click when not changing inputs.. that and its really quite deep and sticks out of my TV stand.

It almost seems like these two are pretty close to a wash and it boils down to brand preference and reputation, thread comments are close to split. Mulling if it is worth the hassle to do a side by side comparison.

I started out with a Sony 925, upgraded to a Denon 3805, then a 4802r flagship for a long time. Sold it and bought a Yamaha RXV675. Liked it so much I added another system and got an RXV677. Spent weeks dialing in the parametric EQs. For midrange receivers they've been tanks with very good sound.
A guy just listed his RXV685 for $150 and I'm wondering if I should jump on it. Has eARC and more bandwidth. I dont need the Atmos. And there's nothing wrong with my two other than age. Some say the firmware update hurts the sound quality. Opinions?

Quote from Jason27104 :
I kept going back and forth between the Onkyo, Denon, and Yamaha for a new receiver and so I did a ton of research. The Onkyo 6050, the Denon 760h and Yamaha TSR-700(the Costco trinity) all have some variety of HDMI board issues, that were corrected to varying degrees of success with later hardware and/or firmware updates, so as part of that process, I talked to a local hifi store owner about higher end models that might not have those issues. I brought up the Onkyo RZ50 and he put it like this, "Onkyo is now owned by Sharp. In 35 years of selling hifi equipment I have never known Sharp to make a high quality product." That stopped me from considering the TX-RZ50.

Of the Costco trinity, consensus was that the Denon worked the best, but sounded the worst. The Yamaha sounded the best, but people still could never get it to work with HDMI for 4k/120hz or VRR. The Onkyo has the prettiest menus, was the easiest to setup, and has the nicest features(2x hdmi out). The Onkyo sounded slightly better than the Denon, but still noticeably worse than the Yamaha, and was the least reliable. I like products that work and are reliable, so I landed on Denon.
I'll give you my opinion I had a good amount of receivers and I have to say the Onkyo has been a beast but it's your choice it's just my recommendation

Thank you - is it fine to only connect a 5.1 speaker set to this until a future date if I ever want to add two more speakers?
If your room allows it and your funds I recommend 5.2 or 7.2 is always great to have two subs to balance and fulfill the room with sound

I might get downvoted for this but I wasn't planning on adding a sub as my walls in my apartment are really thin and I share four sides (ceiling and three walls) with neighbors :/

How hard is it to control your TV setup with this? I've got a somewhat modern 65" TCL TV. I'm currently just using a crappy soundbar. I used to have a 5.1 setup but my receiver didn't support 4k and I never got around to setting something up. My biggest concern is all my av equipment is in a storage room. I've got several high quality active HDMI cables that can run 4k you the TV. I just don't have line if sight to any of the components. If I put the receiver in the storage room (only place that I could) how tricky will it be to control it? I've got a Nvidia shield, PS5, switch, and a PC. I need my wife to be ok with whatever I do. I used to have a harmony remote swap all the input stuff, but after 3 years of having everything direct plugged into the TV, I don't think I'd want to go back to that.

I recently got it at $499 from Costco - will they do price match or should I return and buy new ?
They will price match. If you bought online you have to call the phone number for customer service. If in store then go to the desk
