Denon AVR-X1700H 7.2ch 8K Home Theater Receiver with 3D Audio, Voice Control, and HEOS Built-in (Renewed)

Using this Denon AVR-1700H as my home theatre centerpiece. As inputs, I have a 4K gaming source, a 1080P blu-ray source, and have a cobbled together 5.1 speaker set. The output is a 4K TV that supports 120Hz and eARC. The pass-through quality is amazing. No perceivable lag during gaming. The setup was fast and very intuitive. The Denon quality is astounding. This unit replaced a previous X1700 that was destroyed by a young male foxhound. The customer support for the previous unit was amazing, but unfortunately "water" damage is not covered by the warranty. I have not set up the secondary audio zone, but with the home theatre setup I have, I do wish there had been a way to output video to multiple displays. I'm considering a 4K 120Hz HDMI splitter to alleviate this issue. This AVR puts out plenty of wattage - I can barely go above 50% before it starts rattling the house. It really makes movies come alive. Plugging in a new HDMI source such as a portable gaming system works great. The source autodetect feature makes this simple to use and breeze when powering up the gaming source. I also enjoy using the eARC audio feature since the TV is connected to multiple streaming providers.

After 10 months and being renewed, I wanted to give it a good run before reviewing. This receiver does not disappoint, great sound through my 7.1 stereo set-up. Also have my projector with the Google TV streamer running through the receiver and the sound is incredible on my 150 inch screen!

I ordered the factory refurbished editions of this item and neither functioned properly. The first unit had a remote control that did not work. After setting up the unit and operating it using the knobs and buttons, it died within about 10 minutes of operation. Amazon sent me a replacement unit and the new unit had no functional front panel and the system would not recognize the presence of any speakers. After speaking to Denon tech support, I reached back out to Amazon and I am currently waiting for a refund.

I used to own one of these (DAB version) in Europe, but had to leave it behind when I moved to the USA last February because it was 220 volts only This is a terrific receiver for the money, and this 110v version is great. I would recommend it to anyone on a budget.

I picked this up as I was unhappy with the performance and sound and features on my Yamaha Rx 4Va. I wanted to upgrade to include Atmos. I took it out of the box, plugged in my speakers, ran Audessy and it's been incredible! I still tweak it here and there but overall it's night and day over my Yamaha. Clear, crisp and tight sounding. I'm running a 5.1 system now but upgrading to a 5.1.2 soon. I have Klipsch speakers and it is exactly what I wanted my system to sound likeI bought this refurbished for a deal and it's like brand new so don't shy away from those deals. It's basically brand new for $350.Very intuitive setup. It's only been a week, but I have zero complaints. I've been a Yamaha AVR guy since I was 17, but now at 42, I am a changed man

This is pretty darn nice, got the renewed version and works great, especially the very easy setup up/on screen directions Audity set up mic, etc.

Fantastic AV receiver - integrates well with Control4

I scored this as a refurbished and got it at about half price. Like new, no issues no complaints
