    OP thoughts on this vs Denon AVR-X1700H ?

    • IgorPrev on 13/07/2023 - 15:39

      I've seen it for ~$900 as well and hear it's nice.

      X is a tier higher than S in the range.
      There's minor differences between the two models. X has better room correction.

      AVR-S970H is better in the majority of areas.

        AVR-S970H is better in the majority of areas.

        Your link does not confirm your statement. Overall there is very little difference between the 2 units - most obvious differences is 80w vs 90w and more composite video input/outputs on the X1700

  • cyrax83 on 13/07/2023 - 15:12

    Reason for the large discount? Any amplifiers for sale? Need to power set of Paradigm Studio 100's and a centre

    • soundawake on 13/07/2023 - 15:28

      They're EOL. The current version would be the X2800H

    • DiscountForThee on 13/07/2023 - 15:31

      Damn those speakers cost more than my entire lounge room electronics set up, impressive

      • cyrax83 on 13/07/2023 - 15:34

        They've been sitting there for years unused. lol. Currently using a shitty soundbar and never got a chance to set it up

        • DiscountForThee on 13/07/2023 - 15:49

          A decent amp and 5.1 (or more) speakers is so damn nice for home theatre. Good luck!

      • cheapy on 13/07/2023 - 16:05

        You get what you pay for. Ive recently got a Yamaha RX485 for the Bluetooth with a pair of ELAC B6.2's. Sounds great.

        • Bedgrub on 13/07/2023 - 19:03
          +3

          You might get better materials, workmanship or aesthetics, but the value curve gets exponentially worse above $1000 when it comes to sound - you have to pay a lot more to get marginally better outcomes.

    • DiscountForThee on 13/07/2023 - 15:34

      But for real, it looks like the Paradigm Studio 100 front speakers handle up to 230w whereas this amp is only able to manage "Discrete high-current amplifiers on all channels deliver up to **90W **per channel (at 8 ohms"

      So you're leaving a lot of the speaker unused

        • DiscountForThee on 13/07/2023 - 19:43
          +2

          Yeah you're not missing anything crazy by not having a more powerful amp. The analogy would be that you're reducing the top speed that a car can drive (even though you wouldn't likely ever approach that volume anyway)

    • Foxxster on 13/07/2023 - 16:42

      I have the studio 60s with a 590 centre and an ultracube12 sub. Upgraded my old Yamaha base series which was about 12 years old to a Yamaha A4A , much better. I would spend extra and get something similar.

      • pork chop on 13/07/2023 - 19:10

        My current setup is Paradigm Studio 80 front and a JBL Center wired to a Yamaha RX-V1065 Receiver (105W RMS into 8 ohms). Would it be a downgrade if I get this Denon?

        • Foxxster on 13/07/2023 - 22:08
          +1

          1065 is quite old but was a few steps up from my old Yamaha. The 1065 was quite good at the time so it probably is missing a lot of the newer features like atmos ? This Denon is only rated at 90w at 8 ohms. So in terms of power less, and probably doesn’t have the headroom of the Yamaha. You would be trading more features for less power. It would be a step down from an equivalent Yamaha today. You would have to get the A4A Yamaha or probably the Denon avc x 3800h

  • FlyingPanda99 on 13/07/2023 - 15:21

    Someone should tell Denon's tech team to update their APP.

    • teereb on 13/07/2023 - 15:24
      +1

      3rd party apps are far better (for what I need to be accessed anyway!)

    • MrKnowItAll on 13/07/2023 - 15:32
      +2

      Yep! they offer you only HEOS which feels like stepping back in time whenever I listen to music, plus the interface on the TV appears to be rended in 640x480.. And as of 2 weeks ago for whatever reason you aren't able to access your Tidal playlists anymore (throws up an error) which they say "the techs are working on" but still after 2 weeks nothing has changed. Don't get me wrong, I love the sound from my Denon unit but their software is absolute garbage.

      • soundawake on 13/07/2023 - 15:35
        +4

        The WiiM streamer's interface is leagues better. The app is rock solid.

        • MrKnowItAll on 13/07/2023 - 15:44
          +1

          I actually checked it out yesterday online but unfortunately it doesn't quite tick all the boxes as ideally I'd like aptX bluetooth streaming as well as Tidal Connect and so far the Ifi Blue v2 is the only thing I've seen capable of that but it keeps going up in price! I was going to buy it at $199 but missed out, then it went to $269 and now $299. Hopefully it's reached the ceiling and it'll start to come back down again haha

          So far I've tried BT streaming direct to the TV but that's only AAC like the Denon which makes the tweeters sound like they oscillate (not sure if there's a technical audio terms for this), Chromecast is better but doesn't stream master quality and the interface is quite painful (had to sideload it so it's not optimised for Chromecast), PC streaming was good but bothersome to change songs as you'd have to turn the TV back on each time.. so, despite all its flaws, HEOS wins.. for now.

    Hey OP, could you help me with this.

    I have Sonos system (Arc + Sub + One Sl pair) which I have connected to TV eARC.

    My house has four ceiling speakers which I would like to connect as well. Could this work with Sonos and 4 ceiling speakers?

    Looking at Sonos site, they have mentioned that Denon supports Sonos. But not sure if this supports.

    Thanks

    • PhilToinby on 13/07/2023 - 16:25
      +3

      The only way you can make the ceiling speakers talk to the Sonos Arc is to buy a Sonos AMP. But this will only do two speakers at a time, or I guess you could send the same signal to two speakers.

      • PopCounty on 13/07/2023 - 21:37

        Will explore that. Cheers.

    My trusty old Yamaha RX-V775 AVR has just carked it. Had it connected to our trusty YAMAHA NSP210 5.1 speaker system. Would anyone know if this AVR would be a good replacement?

    • teereb on 13/07/2023 - 16:15
      +5

      Denon has a warmer sound than Yamaha amps. If that suits you, yeah this will do everything you need it to.

      Edit: Down vote me for how I found the amp? And no reason? Sweet mate, please respond to the poster with your 2 cents for their info though to be helpful.

      Yes. It didn't work well for a while but they updated the firmware which fixed it.

  • HitlersDad on 13/07/2023 - 17:13

    What happened to high output multi channel receivers? Pioneer used to make some pretty powerful ones, now everything seems to be 80 90 or maybe 110w.

    • Void on 13/07/2023 - 17:28

      I fix up vintage hifi gear for fun, and I have 15w amps that can play massive 1970s speakers so loudly that you can't be in the room with them. If the numbers are "real" power (not bullshit "peak" numbers) then 110w would kill you with sound waves.

    My first passive speakers so I’m still quite ignorant to how this all works

    • wayfastwhitie on 14/07/2023 - 09:32

      The RP8000 is a very efficient speaker, they don't need a lot of mumbo to drive them. That being said they are a speaker that deserves a quality amp to drive them - not this. Look at an Onkyo RZ50/70

        • boardercam on 15/07/2023 - 11:44

          Don’t think that’s a true statement. I haven’t received mine. Shipping tracking says it hasn’t been shipped yet and it was meant to be delivered yesterday.

            @boardercam: I looked into your order and it has already shipped and is in transit. Please check your ebay messages for more details.

            If anyone else is having issues tracking your order please visit the DHL website directly and enter your consignment number provided on your ebay order:

            https://mysctrackandtrace.dhl.com/

            Looks like ebay is having some issues updating the tracking info once shipped.
