Will upgrading my Denon x1500h be worth it?


Hi, a few years ago I bought a Denon x1500h AVR together with a 5.1 sattellite speaker set from Harman & Kardon. I soon upgraded the subwoofer with the Canton 85.2 CS subwoofer as de HK sub just was terrible. The last few months I have been upgrading my LCR with Focal Chora 806 bookshelf speakers and a Focal Aria CC900 center speaker.

Will upgrading my amp make a big difference sonically when watching movies at a decent volume with speakers like these or should I just stick to my x1500h until it breaks down or I need newer funcionalities like? Does anyone has experience upgrading from a x1500h AVR?

For a 5.1 system with satellites and a sub the Denon is fine. If you want to upgrade get the paid Audyssey upgrade for your receiver and the calibrated mic for room correction. The difference is stunning. If you have questions just reply to this post:
