Thanks, needed a 5.1 receiver with updated video formats for my living room and this checks all the boxes.

Great for folks that are 100% sure they'll never need 7.2 or a 5.2.2 atmos config (have a separate room for serious movie watching).

Receivers like these are great for a 3.1.2 setup. With some decent speakers it's going to be better than most, if not all soundbars.

Wouldn't rear speakers be better than having 2 atmos ones? i.e. 5.1 vs 3.1.2?

Sure, if you can do that, but it's inconvenient (if not impossible) for many to set up rear surrounds. So if your living space only accommodates front speakers, this is the next best thing. That's why that configuration exists.

In for one, thanks.
Bummed I missed out on the Denon X1700H deal a couple weeks ago, but hopefully this Onkyo will help sooth the burn. Can't imagine myself desperately wanting to go above 5.2 ever, so this should get the job done.

Maybe stupid question but can 2 receivers be used together to double the channels ?

What was the Denon X1700H deal? Was it Costco clearing this out at $200?

I see two subwoofer outputs on the receiver. Are these meant to go to the same subwoofer or separate ones? I was wondering if this can do 3.2.2 as surround/side speakers are not practical for my setup.

It would appear to have outputs to two subwoofers. The only thing I see on the back panel that I don't care for is the "assignable" feature on the optical and coax inputs. Would rather they both be useable.
