    I upgraded my receiver from an Onkyo, to this Denon. At first it felt a little foreign, and complex. But once I got used to it, it's actually pretty easy to navigate. My only wish would be that it came with a universal remote. Other than that, it's got a lot of power.

    I decided to go the receiver route to hook up with my tv and speakers to get the best surroundsound experience instead of using a sound bar. I have always liked Denon receivers so it was a no-brainer to buy this one. I’m happy with my choice!

    The receiver is good for what we were trying to achieve with the other components that we had. We actually don’t use many of the features like our exterior speakers or DVD player etc. It’s always difficult for older eyes to read the controls on any electronics. No problems to report

    I haven't had a chance to explore ALL of the features in this thing yet, but the most important ones are fantastic. Easy to set up, not a total perfect sound from speaker calibration, but very easy to customize and tweak after.

    I upgraded from a sound bar system. This is a very nice receiver. The online music service (Tidal) is very good. I can use it to control my other components. I use it as a 5.1 system and the sound is outstanding

    I'm easily impressed 'cause the Onkyo it replaced was before the time of the 'focus mike'. My listening pleasure has increased exponentially. Broadcast is fine w/ me; So, except for You Tube and Netflix, I'm not all that 'hooked-up'

    I purchased this item to provide a 3.1 viewing/listening experience a small room. The set up was easy and I was up and running in a relatively short period of time. The set-up wizard was very helpful. I anticipate using the system to run a 7.1 system in the future.

    Sound with the new receiver is very clear still with my older Sony speakers and subwoofer. Just changed the old cables. Assembling and connecting to devices was not too challenging, with some help from my wife and 14-year old daughter.

    Great receiver for the HD and 4K age. It is worth studying up as you go. It will give great results once you learn how to connect and use. Despite its modernity, it makes my vinyl records sound great.

    This receiver is awesome!!! The HEOS app is the most amazing feature to be able to operate my music on my speakers inside or outside my home. We can be in the pool and turn music on without having to go inside. Greatest investment ever!!!

    I got this model in replacement of my old Denon Avr 2313ci It lasted for 7 years. This one is relatively new for me so cant say much yet but it seems like this one has better sound quality. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase.

    I have an old Kenwood stereo system. My button which turns the tunner off and on broke. I have two amplifiers there buttons broke. So I needed to keep the rest of the units working. So I already have a Denon unit 7.2 for another system that I have. So why not get another one. So I talked to a tech and got some input to what I need to hook up a phonograph and other items I need to replace . The Denon 560W could fix my problem for the other units I had to hook up.

    Bought this receiver along with ELAC floor speakers and a Definitive Super Cube for a high end but basic 3.1 system that we could continue to build from. This receiver has handled the output phenomonally and sounds great with music and theater.
