Title: Denon X7200WA Receiver
Post by: AVSCraig on October 25, 2016, 12:20:00 PM: I was able to download the new DD/DTS cross-mix firmware update to my X7200WA last night ( thanks for the heads up JD :) ). Not a lot of time to test it out, but so far, so good !

AV8802A and the X7200WA) will receive both the Dolby Vision and HLG updates via a firmware update likely to be released around the first quarter of 2018. Note the emphasis on the "A" models only.

Hybrid Log Gamma ( HDTV HDR that's coming supposedly, or maybe some folks already have it ).

Post by: AVSCraig on June 23, 2017, 10:38:06 AM: My X7200WA continues to be the best receiver I've owned yet. I re-ran Audyssey since I had moved my seating location, and it yielded even better sound than before !

Some YouTube clips are encoded with HLG HDR. The Chromecast Ultra can play the YouTube HLG videos; currently limited to some LG and Vizio TV sets.

This year's JVC projectors are supposed to support HLG but I haven't heard of anyone successfully displaying YouTube HLG HDR using a Chromecast Ultra.

Post by: AVSjd on July 21, 2017, 07:22:26 PM: As the "flagship" X7200WA won't be replaced until spring 2018, we continue to have this model available for purchase. Call for pricing if interested.
