X series generally has higher power output across more channels - rough estimate about 60% stated power across all channels driven vs S series which has power figures stated only on 2 channels driven other channels are lower priority.
X series also supports IMAX Enhanced and Auro3D formats w/ upmixing if you want to play around w/ that some folks argue that Auro3D upmixing mode sounds better than Atmos upmix. *Also note you can use Atmos upmixer on your S760H if you wish to upmix stereo content to Atmos outside of apple spatial streaming services.
S series is designed for small home living rooms while X series is like entry level to more serious home theater.

looks like those "Front page" SD advertisements were not such a good deal after all.
There seems to be enough value to justify that extra $100:

Main differentiators i see are more wattage for speakers, atmos music (which unbelievable only applies to Apple Music which I don't currently subscribe to), and detachable power cable lol

EDIT: I do have an 8K TV, just want to make sure I pick up the right receiver so I could pass a true 8K signal from my PC. Can anyone confirm?
