Great deal! This is a no brainer for someone looking to get into a decent surround setup for cheap.

Great deal. I was excited for about 10 seconds before confirming no LR pre-outs.

I bought it when it was 129, its great for this price. My unit didn't come with the calibration mic though. Might be it was only me who was unlucky. Otherwise it works perfectly.

Almost everything I want. 4k/60 though but hard to fault something that is only $110.

Perfect! I was in the market for an arc enabled, atmos, 4k/60, and not too pricey receiver. I was running costco's Denon AVR-X1700H but it died and seems costco no longer carries any 7.1 or better receivers.

I tried to buy this thing 10 times over the course of last week and they kept cancelling it. Must have been only available locally even though it offered the shipping option. Even ordering over the chat and phone yielded the same result.

You're expecting a whole other class of receiver at 130 bucks. This is a great deal if you need to add channels or get a newer 4k capable receiver.

The S series they replaced it with is such a drop in quality. Like it's still decent value but it's a far cry from a slick deal. Sad times since my marantz died last month only after 4 years . I might swing for the RZ30 deal from Adorama

Now days IIRC Onkyo, Marantz , Denon are all the same company and basically junk.
Sad Marantz used make a great receiver!
