      Denon site specs say 3 ports are 8k60p capable, which should mean they are HDMI 2.1 ports. Nothing definitive on the site tho, sadly.

    Will just buy this if there isn’t much difference though

    • ChiefAJ on 27/02/2024 - 20:16

      The S970H has an additional HDMI out, more audio inputs (analog and digital), and a bit more power. It has almost the same specs as the X2800H.

      The X1800H has better room correction.

      • barge88 on 27/02/2024 - 20:19

        Thanks so much for the reply.
        I’m aiming to do a 5.1.2 set up. With ps5, Xbox, pc Apple TV into the receiver.
        Plus connect a sonos connect into this AVR so it links up with my other sonos gear (changing from sonos home theatre to this set up)
        That should all be fine with this right?
        Thanks again for your help!

        Edit: Sorry one final question, pending on moving into a new place I was considering a dual screen set up, so standard tv during the day then pull down projector screen at night, as this only has one output could I use a splitter to still run the two? Wouldn’t need to be at the same time

        • evocable on 27/02/2024 - 21:07

          You'd want a hdmi switch instead of a splitter. Splitter will output to both screens simultaneously

          I'm not sure. Are you planning to use the Sonos Connect as an audio source only (play audio from the Sonos to the AVR and other Sonos speakers at the same time)? That will work.

          I don't think you can use a Sonos Connect to receive audio from the AVR to then play on other Sono speakers, however.

    Great. Damn price.

    At 1k the x1700h was good value , works well, but can’t justify upgrading so soon.

    X1700H take aways:

    Integration with home automation doable , if ur using something like HA, and plugins. (I’m using homebridge)

    Only fault is Disney app on Apple TV whines coz it detects the ps5 and throws a hdcp error. Fix is reboot of amp.

    Also wish it had pre outs. Some markets get pre main channel preouts, but not the one I got.

    Drives kef q150s very well, better than the marantz SR5008 before it

    • yahms on 27/02/2024 - 21:29

      Annnnnnnnd the x1800h gets pre outs according to the listing! Dang

      • vinni9284 on 27/02/2024 - 22:56

        I have the 1700H too and it's entry level receiver. It's great for the latest codecs and connectivity but gutless when you crank. Even with the pre outs, it'll be low voltage output to an amp. I bought mine for $300 used with balance of warranty and won't pay more. There's a reason why it's heavily reduced

        • yahms on 28/02/2024 - 14:51

          Agree it’s entry level in the world of amps , important to be realistic about that going in. My 2 channel power amp in another room with ~120w per channel is a dramatic improvement in sound quality at moderate levels even though power obeys inverse square law and 120w in theory isn’t much louder than 80w. Can’t take Watts too seriously.

          Per channel the 120w amp uses 6 transistors where the Denon uses 2. But hey, almost all AVR / receiver amps use high gain transistors, or smaller power supplies etc. compromises are made, but I think it’s a good all rounder and this price means it’s appropriate for something that goes out of date so quickly.

          Maybe a good comparison, rather than higher end models, is soundbars. Of course audio is very subjective, so some might feel this is a clear upgrade over a sound bar, some might not. Both are correct 👍. Personally I like the modular nature of passive speakers and I enjoy my little x1700h, and yeh, I agree with you here, it’s just a baby. https://youtu.be/qNZrIgppe6o

          Fun fact when my sr5008 died and we went back to the tv speakers, my partners reaction to the tv speaker quality was ‘urgh’ lol

          • vinni9284 on 28/02/2024 - 18:43

            @yahms: As I am using mine for the master bedroom, it's driving the polk RtiA3 speakers. It is struggling when you crank it up. I had an older Integra DTR 50.2 receiver and it was balsy for its time, but it had the common soundboard/HDMI death in its iteration (Onkyo). My next replacement will not be a Denon, but at least 2 tiers above the base model with all pre-outs. I have purchased second hand receivers over the years and not yet have regretted it. You practically pay half the extortionate price for it new.

            • yahms on 29/02/2024 - 00:39

              @vinni9284: Yeah I’ve generally gone second hand, my little denon was my first ever retail amp! Good bargains out there if you don’t care about the latest hdmi standards. Shame about the integra

      • ChiefAJ on 27/02/2024 - 23:27
        +1

        The pictures showing pre-outs on the The Good Guys website look wrong. The picture of the rear of the unit has power rating label of 120v ~ 60Hz near the power socket.

        If you compare it to the picture on the Denon website it doesn't have pre-outs and it shows the power input label of 230v ~50/60Hz.

    Man this is tempting. Have a Sony STR-DN1070 which is all around excellent but doesn't pass through Dolby Vision because Sony are jerks and think I'm going to pay them $1500 for a new amp for that feature. Joke's on them, I'll pay someone else for a new amp.

    • metka2 on 29/02/2024 - 18:50

      Are you referring to the Sony str-an1000?

        • metka2 on 04/03/2024 - 19:03

          I was holding out for a good deal on the STR-AN1000 but it never came around. Cheapest I saw was $1399 but for that money I could buy myself a Denon x2800 so in my opinion Sony is overpriced on their receivers by a long way.

          Im not taking away anything from the quality of the Sony receivers, just no way they could compete with a deal like this.

          • caitsith01 on 05/03/2024 - 21:01

          • Lionheart on 27/02/2024 - 23:21

            @harro112: Oh I see, I didn’t want to get a sub that couldn’t get enough power from this amp. Or because it’s AC powered it doesn’t matter (like car stereo’s)?

            So you’re saying literally any sub will work with this amp?

            • harro112 on 27/02/2024 - 23:34
              +1

              @Lionheart: any sub will work. if the sub is active (has its own amplifier), as most are, simply connect the sub to the subwoofer out jack with a mono RCA cable. it would also be possible to run a passive sub using the receiver's own amplifier, but i probably wouldn't recommend going down that path. both the NS-SW300 and SVS SB-1000 PRO are active subs.

              edit: to throw my 2c in, the best value subs are often second hand ones off marketplace - you can often find extremely capable ones for ~$100 rather than spending hundreds and hundres.

              • Lionheart on 27/02/2024 - 23:40

                @harro112: Thanks so much mate, very much still learning about all of this stuff
