Which of the new 4K Recievers do you prefer?


I’m looking for a new receiver for my home theater system. I have been using a Denon 5803 for years and I think it has very good sound quality and power. But, its an older model that I use the 7.1 analog inputs.

Now that I have the new Oppo 205 I would like to take advantage of using HMDI connections along with the Atmos overhead channels.

I would like one with about 150 RMS / channel, dual subwoofer outputs and has at least front channel preamp outputs. Sound quality is important. Video quality is less important because I run the Oppo direct to my 85" UHD Samsung.

Price around $1500-$2500+

Appreciate any help.

Hello Ozzy

May we be of assistance. Our shop sells

NAD,
Arcam,
Audio Control
Cambridge Audio

We can give you great advice about these and other models

The high end European brands sound way better than the Japanese stuff

We did a comparison of a Denon  and the Cambridge Audio and the Cambridge dramatically outperformed it.

It will come down to preferences the NAD offer the most flexible design with MDC design which allows for board based upgrades.

The Arcam and Audio Control are sister products made in the same factory but both are more expensive than the $2500 price point

That leaves Cambridge, the CX 200 was $3,200 and we have it on special for $2,000.00 and it is  incredible sounding, very open and clean. 

I hope that helps.
