The 8802a will which has HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0a. On march 18th 2018 Marantz is going to provide firmware for Dolby vision Pass-through. You should be avulse to get a 8802a for a good price new or used because the 8805 will be coming out in early spring time of 2018.

A lot has changed since then and the 4K formats have gone through several iterations. You will need something that has HDMI 2.0 / HDCP 2.2 to make sure you support any of the current 4K standards. You could try with AV8801, but there will be some 4K devices/formats that just don't work with it.
