The TX NR7100 stands out as a low priced way to get Dirac Live and 7.2.2 support, with several comments calling it the cheapest Dirac AVR at this price and a strong value versus newer Onkyo and Denon options. Setup is described as easy, and the receiver is said to sound excellent with normal listening levels, especially when paired with a subwoofer and room correction. The main cautions are its age, lack of pre outs and independent sub outs, and reports of power limiting or limp mode with low impedance speakers. A few long term reliability complaints and one overheating concern also surface, so it looks best for standard home theater use with typical 8 ohm speakers.

  • Dirac Live is available onboard at no extra charge, which makes the $599 price point attractive for calibration-focused setups.

  • Setup can be straightforward, and the unit has worked as a replacement for older AVRs in at least some home theater transitions.

  • The receiver can deliver strong real-world results after room calibration, including clearer center dialogue and improved low-end fidelity.

  • ARC and eARC can produce indistinguishable sound for some setups, so the receiver may still work well even without chasing eARC-specific differences.

  • The TX-NR7100 can show poor behavior with 4-ohm speaker loads, including a power-limiting "limp mode" risk that may not be clearly indicated.

  • The unit lacks pre-outs and parallel subwoofer outputs, which can limit expansion options compared with models that offer those features.

  • Dirac Live may not improve sound for every system, and some users report a downgrade in sound quality after upgrading.

  • Coupon and deal pricing can be unreliable, since at least one report says the coupon code stopped working.

Does adorama still call you on the phone after purchase of and say you must call to complete the transaction so they can try to upsell you on warranty and such? I had that experience years back and have not bought from them since because of that.

Bought from them (online) in August, and also back in 2023; never got any phone call (that I know of; it's always possible that it could have been caught by phone spam filtering and never reached me).

Would it be worth upgrading from a Denon S760? Considering for the extra 2 channels.
Only if you needed the extra channels imo.

I've bought lots of stuff from them in the past year and never gotten a call or voicemail or email like that.

I did.

Chasing the holy grail of DIRAC LIVE. Smilie

There are a few other benefits, but selling the old S760 to cover about half the upgrade cost made it worthwhile.

Do I night it's night and day better? Of course not. Not even close. After A1 Evo AcoustiX I probably would fail a blind test on which was better, TBH.

But I enjoy this stuff, and it was fun.

Dirac live is probably one of the most overrated things in the audio world. Upgraded and it was a total downgrade in sound quality

It's not for everyone & not a magic pill.
It doesn't improve equipment quality & does have a learning curve.

"Room correction" generally is massively overrated/overhyped. Just a way to sucker consumers into shelling out more money for fancier receivers while the industry continues to cut corners on the actual HARDWARE (i.e. power supplies) inside the receivers, which is why they keep getting lighter and lighter. Generally, unless your room is a uniquely BAD acoustic environment, RC's most audible improvement is 250Hz and under, iow it yields audible benefits mainly on the SUBS, esp. when compensating for room nulls.

I suggest getting a receiver that doesn't cost less than one of your speakers (used). You want your system to have some sort of synergy. What's the point of a Ferrari w/a KIA engine?
