I'm surprised a 5.1 AVR still goes for this. I'd figure all are 7.1 by now. It is very handy to decode atmos and dolby vision even if you don't have the speaker setup currently to take advantage.

The Denon does not have any WiFi capabilities or network access. So it depends if those feature are worth an additional $50 to you.

IMO this is a very good mid level AVR. You can get a cheaper model for sure without the network/WiFi capabilities. Yamaha has a cheaper version for $279,RX-V385 for example.

What cables do you all use to connect your speakers and receiver? Just basic copper wiring? Banana plugs?
