      Cheaper at JB then with the $30 off Perks Deal if you spend over $300

      • sharkatron on 16/07/2024 - 19:26

        With Ultimate gift cards I got it closer to $700. Getting close to the GGs deal.

    Search site and it has been almost this same price long running with good guys commercial. And a good chunk cheaper previously. Ignore the massively inflated RRP number and don’t be fooled.

    Devo, paid $880 the other day.

    Absolute loving the AVR though, being able to play games from my PC at 4K120 and HDR on an LG C4 77" is top tier.

    Quite the upgrade from an old Yamaha $300 receiver, any questions I'll try and answer

    • turtleCatcher on 16/07/2024 - 10:23

      Hi @NuttySnag,
      Would you recommend for someone starting to think about building a setup for a small room. Any recommendation on budget speakers as well if you can. I have this atm https://www.samsung.com/au/support/model/HT-H6550WM/XY/ don't see any way to use it with this setup :(

      Also for PC games connecting directly to TV won't give you 4K? ignore my noobness on this.

      • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 10:41

        It's an excellent premium entry level AVR

        Has all the modern features I'd argue you should want at a minimum. HDR, Audio Codecs, 40GBs HDMI, etc..

        Sure some things like 8K support etc, aren't needed now, but for the price why not, it'll hold more value if you were to sell it down the line and upgrade, not that you'd need to for a while

        It has a lot of room to grow for someone getting into hi-fi, for example if you decide to add a second sub or add side surround, maybe have speakers in another room but use a single receiver with 2 zones it would support that

        I found the setup guide it walks you through very thorough so shouldn't have any issues as a beginner, it also comes with the calibration mic and tripod so it handles a lot of that itself (although I did customise mine after but it's a good baseline)

        Budget speakers is tricky, the best thing I can recommend is getting on Facebook marketplace and seeing what's on offer around your area, buying speakers new rarely makes sense, although unlike a car they seem to hold value for a ridiculous amount of time

        Stick to known decent entry level brands, Dali, Wharfedale, Klipsch, and you'll generally have a good time, everyone has an opinion on what's the best so "best speaker" articles are pretty useless imo, good to get an idea around build quality and the like though

        I recently got some second hand Dali Concept 6 speakers, didn't have the seller show me them working and later found a tweeter was blown, so I'd suggest always having them play some test tones and putting your ear to each tweeter, woofer etc to make sure it's working, that being said I got them for a steal and a replacement tweeter was $30 from AliExpress but sucks having to wait when you just got a new toy

        As for the PC -> TV, that definitely works, but then getting audio to the AVR is a hassle, ARC is temperamental at best and it's been nice just having it work without any faffing about

        • turtleCatcher on 16/07/2024 - 16:33

          Thankyou for taking time and explaining in such detail.

    • sunny27 on 16/07/2024 - 10:58

      I am also switching from my old Yamaha receiver. Does this speaker support Yamaha Satellite Speakers as they are 6 ohms and 100w (max)

      • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 11:05
        +1

        Yeah 6 Ohms @ 2 Channel (L+R) it can output 120W to each speaker. [Edit to make it read better]

        Just got to make sure you have an active sub as it only has a pre-out for the sub, unlike Yamaha receivers that come with speakers and sub.

        • sunny27 on 16/07/2024 - 11:09

          Sorry I am an beginner. Can you help me understand what you mean by active sub and pre-out. I was thinking of using my Yamaha sub with Denon AVR-X1800H.

          • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 11:15

            @sunny27: Does your current sub plug into mains and have speaker cables to the receiver?

            If so it is 99% likely an "Active Sub", which is fancy way of saying it has its own amplifier built-in.

            If it's not powered by mains, it's a "Passive Sub" which means it's powered by the amplifier in the receiver, which you don't really find on higher end AVRs

            Pre-out is a fancy way of saying the audio processing has been done by the AVR and it's sending a "clean" signal to the device

    • Marty131 on 16/07/2024 - 12:15

      Hi NuttySnag,

      Similar to others, I too am upgrading from a (very) old Yamaha receiver - running via a HDMI splitter (multi HDMI in, 1 HDMI out (to TV) + toslink optical out (to old AVR))

      Can you help with answering any of the following?

      • Is there a way to lock the maximum volume? I'm always paranoid my 1 y.o. will crank volume knob, and/or my wife will increase volume to 100% if she can't hear audio from an app.
      • When changing volume, does the AVR display volume level on the TV screen / HDMI output, even when using 4k120 mode? I remember reading a manual for a Denon AVR in the past, and the "HUD" was not available for certain modes…
      • Does HDMI CEC work well for powering on TV when an input source is switched on? E.g. turning on/off Apple TV or Shield TV to trigger the TV power.
      • Does ChromeCast / Airplay work well for audio?
      • Any other cool features that a 20 y.o. Yamaha AVR would not have had, to help me pull the trigger?
      • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 12:41

        • Don't think there's a software option for that, but you could potentially remove the cable from the Volume Knob -> PCB? I'd have to check but my old Yamaha had the option to set a maximum so would imagine the Devon to have that as well
        • The only time I've noticed it not appearing on screen is when passing through HDR mode or using built-in TV apps
        • Haven't had any CEC issues thus far, hand shake seems more stable then it did with my Yamaha
        • I've only casted Spotify audio so far and it shows up like a Chromecast would in Spotify
        • Modern codecs and standards would be the big one, but if your current setup works with all your devices and you have no plans for new ones maybe wait it out, I recently built a PC just for in the living room and I was sick of fighting with my old receiver, also upgraded to an active sub and my old Yamaha didn't have a RCA pre-out
        • Marty131 on 16/07/2024 - 23:45

          Thanks! Food for thought. Current set up is fine, so might continue. I like your idea of disconnecting the volume knob from the PCB. Guess I have nothing to lose on the old Yamaha 😀

    • btissa on 16/07/2024 - 13:59

      Hi NuttySnag,

      Thanks for giving great advice for various questions.
      I am also new to this area. I have Denon X1700H. I need some help from you on how to connect my pc and Firestick to this AVR to get the best audio and video results and connect AVR to the HDMI on my Samsung UHD TV.
      Currently i have connected both devices directly to the HDMI input of the TV.
      I wonder if i connect the devices to my AVR will I have better audio and video how do i choose the souce input on the remote when watching the streaming from these devices.
      Very much appreciated your advice.

        You'll always have the best audio experience going from your input devices -> AVR -> TV

        Whilst technically arc is able to send an input device like a PC from the TV to the AVR it's generally a compromised experience, at least in my experience - simple stuff from the tv defaulting back to its own speakers or not wanting to pass through 5.1

        Generally your AVR will be smart enough to know if the PlayStation just turned on which is plugged into AVR input HDMI2 to switch to it, your TV just needs to be on your AVR input.

        There's no direct way to switch AVR sources through your TV remote unless you've got like a Samsung Soundbar and Samsung TV I believe they do do that.

        Can always use a unified remote like the Logitech Harmony if you're set on a single remote to rule them all.

        I personally find I occasionally need to use the AVR remote but that doesn't bother me and I'm sure it would bother others

    • hopper on 16/07/2024 - 15:39

      are you able to link it with google assist?

      • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 17:34

        Just set it up, seems decent enough although it was arguably too easy so questionable security measures.

    • chunky on 16/07/2024 - 16:43

      Thanks for taking the time to answer questions. I'm also in the same boat in thinking of upgrading an old Yamaha AVR.

      What was the model of your old Yamaha AVR? Did you notice an improvement/difference in sound quality between the two?

      There seems to be two conflicting schools of thought on this so I was keen to hear your experience.

      • NuttySnag on 16/07/2024 - 17:45

        I had the HTR-2071

        I can't say if there was a direct improvement in quality because I upgraded speakers at the same time.

        But from a spec point of view, the speakers wouldn't have benefited from the more powerful amp in the new receiver.

        It's very situational based on what you have now and what you're trying to achieve, I wouldn't upgrade an AVR for better sound unless your current one is so underpowered the speakers aren't at their full potential but that's generally unlikely.

  • hopper on 16/07/2024 - 12:38

    My onkyo tx-nr609 stopped working since a month. I have to use hairdryer for 1 min on top to make it work for few days. is this a good replacement?

  • catchmeifyoucan on 16/07/2024 - 14:18

    I was just about to pull the pin on this (from JB with perks for $730) then realized the Aussie version doesn't have pre-out sockets for the main L&R and I need this functionality to drive active front speakers.
    So what else to buy for under $800 with 40Gbps HDMI, Atmos and pre-out?

  • jonneh on 16/07/2024 - 14:37

    Many years ago I convinced my mum to buy a Denon RCD-N7. It turned put to be a bit ahead of its time, and as far as I can tell it didn't get much support in firmware updates.

  • donkey33 on 16/07/2024 - 17:37

    I have an old Pioneer VSX-1019AH-K that obviously can't take a 4k signal. Would this be okay to move to power and processing wise?
