macmann Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I currently have a Sony 1100ES series for the living room. Need a recommendation for one that will go into the game room for the projector. Want something that works really well with C4 and has bullet proof drivers.

tdougray Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Demon avr-x3600h performs way better than the price point should allow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidle323 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Agree with the Denon/Marantz lineup, rock solid setup every time. Just stay away from the budget S-Series lineup https://usa.denon.com/us/product/hometheater/receivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is $1099 USD MSRP and on Amazon. It's on sale on Amazon Canada for $799 Cdn. That's $615 USD. https://www.amazon.ca/DENON-AVR-X3600H-Automation-Integration-Monitoring/dp/B07RR6WQBW/ref=cm_wl_huc_item Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macmann Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Gonna try the Marantz. I use to use the KI signature series when I was overseas and loved them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 AVRs are the bane of my existence as you have to replace them every few years if you want to continue using them for video switching - but for audio they are still generally fine. I have a few AVRs with no HDMI, or only 1 or 2 HDMI inputs. And then even some of my newer AVRs may not support 4K. And more 8K TVs are coming out at CES this year. https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2019/12/31/21044998/samsung-bezel-less-8k-qled-tv-leak-ces-2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMHarman Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I currently have a Sony 1100ES series for the living room. Need a recommendation for one that will go into the game room for the projector. Want something that works really well with C4 and has bullet proof drivers. The STR ZA1100ES is still a good option with a rock solid driver and good SQ. Pick up a used like new on amazon or eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
