It's worth $600 alone for DIRAC alone, which is typically a $300 license. So you're getting a 9.2 receiver for $300, and the best auto calibration software in the market. Anyone with an entry level Yamaha or Denon should be jumping on this.
Been waiting for this particular receiver to drop back down to this price! It's the only one (under like $1k) that has basically all of the features I wanted. Bought new speakers earlier this year, so I'm stoked to pair them with a more powerful receiver. Only downside is this is WAY deeper than my old receiver so I'm going to have to cut out the back of my entertainment center since they make those so dang shallow nowadays. So, if you are upgrading, be sure to measure first!
While this receiver can do "Dolby Atmos" and "Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization" why cannot it do "Dolby Atmos Music"; why would Dolby Atmos Music be any different than "Dolby Atmos"

The receiver is not able to decode Atmos music on it's own, and I think this is true for almost all AV receivers, but it can play Atmos music. You need to use an external media device such as the Apple TV 4K, Fire Stick/Cube or Nvidia Shield. I think some TVs will also support it to the receiver as well.

Well, I remember getting my 9.2 channel Ultra THX 2 rated Onkyo 1007 for $600 back in 2010…. Still going strong after an hdmi board replacement under their extended warranty. Wish I could get something with that kind of power these days for less than $1000. Denon 3800h or 4700 seem like the best options in terms of amp quality for $1000.

Thank you, will check if my TV or my PC will support sending Atmos music to AV receiver
