Should make a great pre/pro and I would highly suggest buying the extended warranty if there is one offered

So you get 37 watts @ 4Ω before the unit locks down, but you can get 135 watts @ 8Ω
The only other negative is that the unit resamples internally to 48khz, even if the input is 192khz.
Otherwise it seems like a good unit, if you have 8Ω speakers.

Best AVR I could find after months of research that had the features I wanted and have not regretted in in owning it now for over a year.
But once the amp runs out of clean watts, the peaks get clipped off; so you lose the dynamic range that a big clean amp provides.
Like the 'screen door effect' on certain projectors, if you never point it out, most people will be totally happy.

What speakers are you using?
Main sources? (Just streaming services, shield, Atv, etc)
How's room correction? Using Dirac or audessey?
TIA

Dirac Live (one of the reasons to get this AVR, it's the best)
Nvidia Shield for all TV/Movies
Plex, Netflix
PS5
Xbox Series X
Switch
Sometimes my laptop.
Also stream Spotify directly sometimes as it shows up as a speaker.
Loudest I have had it was 105DB and was only at like 70% max volume.

Very similar setup with sources here, and Dirac is the main attraction for me. Just not sure if that can justify an upgrade from my otherwise-fine Yamaha AVR.
Is this a whole new setup for you or did you upgrade from a previous receiver?

That upgrade then lead me to want to also upgrade my speakers so got all new speakers, then the bass shakers, new TV, etc. So it was a forklift upgrade for my whole setup in the end.
Now my setup is better than the movie theater, I never leave home lol.
