7.2 HT Receiver
« on: November 23, 2023, 11:50:23 PM »
A friend of mine wants to update his 7.2 home theater receiver since his present one died.

He checked amazon and saw the below with 6 hdmi with high reviews..

He wants more hdmi inputs but from searching, most if not all of the various receivers have 6...

Any thoughts on the below? or any other brand/model, you can recommend instead that maybe better?


Denon  AVR-S770H $479.00
Denon  AVR-S970H $527.99
Denon  AVR-X1800H $549.00
Sony  STR-AN1000 $598.00
Denon  AVR-X2800H $799.00

It sounds like your friend is an HDMI Power User. :)

I can't think of more than six HDMI sources that I would use, but 6 seems to be the standard for most AVRs. I have 9 on my HT preamp but it's a lot more $$$ than anything on that list.

If your friend's display has ARC, maybe they can enable it and utilize those HDMI inputs as well.
