Receiver advice for Polk R700 + R400 + R200 + R900
Hello,
I'm looking for a?
5.1.4 speaker set + receiver.
What is your budget?
€6,000 = including the receiver.
I want to use the device to ......
I am looking for an upgrade to the current sound system for our living room.
We now had an LG HX966TZ set. This set is now 10 years old and I must say that I am still very happy with this set. However, the receiver is now broken. I recently heard someone use a Denon receiver in combination with Mission bookshelf speakers. Because of this I now want to upgrade and immediately go to 5.1.4.
Usage is 85% films and series, 15% music. TV we have LG OLED65C9PLA
I would like to watch Atmos and IMAX films/series via Netflix and Disney + listen to radio and Spotify.
Our living room is 7.40m deep, 5.20 meters wide and 2.65m high. I see right in the middle of the room on the couch. The speakers are all wired through the wall with a cable thickness of 2.5mm.
What have you already found?
Denon X3800h sounded very nice. And has everything I think I need. I don't think there are many cheaper brands in the Atmos/IMAX variants. I assume €1,200 here.
What I'm going to buy is:
Polk: 2xR700 + R400 + 2xR200 + 4XR900 atmos set.
SVS Pb-1000pro
What questions do you still have about this?
I'm not sure whether this receiver is large enough for this set. The Polk R700 likes some power. Some stores indicate that the x3800 is large enough for this set, others do not.
Another option I found is: "Denon X6700h. This is an additional charge of €600.
Two questions:
1. The x3800 is a two-year newer model than the x6700. Does the x3800 have advantages over the x6700 if you are purely looking at watching movies with Dolby Atmos?
2. Is the additional cost of €600 for the x6700 necessary? I don't want a separate amplifier or another brand of receiver.
Thanks for the comments.
