Coming from a $350 Costco Denon to this is astounding the difference in sound with my speakers. My wife is the biggest critic and always tells me she can't tell the difference when I tweak something. This was immediate feedback. She commented how crisp and direct everything sound3d now. I am quite pleased.

This only supports 9 channels, you would need 11 channels to do that.

It will support a 5.1.4 setup, here is the configuration. Not a lot of difference than the 7.1.4 one.

The challenge is getting your seating far enough away from the rears for optimal reflection.

Thank you for the response. I messed up when I typed my original question. I meant to say 5.1.4 with two front height speakers and two rear reflecting Atmos enabled speakers. So I would use that configuration linked in the PDF file in the receiver settings even if I have front heights instead of overheads?

If you can't hide it behind doors or out of the way, the only thing that matters should be how it sounds in your setup!

Slight correction the Onkyo TX-NR6100 does not include Dirac Live.
Which sorta clears explains all the glowing fake reviews. If they gush about how "great the DIRAC sounds" one can assume the rest of the review is also a scam.

Hard Pass

I need a receiver to drive my dynaudio audience 72 fronts and center which are 4 ohms and 6 ohms. Max power is 200 w at 4ohms. Will this do it to normal levels?

Not sure what you mean by fake reviews but Dirac is a very good(premium) RC.

I would say points more to how you actually do pay for Dirac and not free(included).
Thee main reason this is considered such a deal is Dirac after all.

Would it power them, yes it would.

Now normal levels can vary widely.
Those speakers aren't very efficient so on an average, to their potential, this may struggle quickly especially if it's for HT imo.

If these are your speakers (see link for measurements), you dip into the low to high 4s for impedance at frequencies that aren't handed off to your SW. You can certainly give the DRX 3.4 a try and become a datapoint but my guess is the AVR will struggle!

Just a note of caution for those planning on using the preamp outs to connect an external amp. Its output voltage is rated at a max of 1 volt rms which may not be enough to drive certain amps which require 2+ volts rms on their single ended RCA inputs for full power.

This is a good point and not appreciated by most. You would need a high gain amplifier to qualify!

Do you have a link to the voltage reveal for the pre-outs?

It seems like almost all mainstream ABRs are "stuck" in the 90s. Small white labels on black panels are the absolute worst! Makes me wish the recent resurgence of the 70/80 style Japanese receivers and preamps could be applied to the modern designs.

That is right off the spec sheet. The reason why I was aware of it is last summer I was helping a family member who wanted to replace his existing AVP as it was not HDMI. If the processing on the 3.4 is sufficient why bother with a $5k new AVP. Alas, his amps were 2.0 Vrms.

I see it now but I think it might be a typo. The same exact spec shows up for the RZ50 but for the SW pre-out!

1V is pretty crappy for going to any amplifier!
