Which atmos reciever/preamp / integrated has the best room correction built in and atmos?


Im more into 2 channel and not current on home theater processers,   l
ideally has preamp outs, ive got amps and speakers, just wanting a newer 4K atmos  refresh for my home theater.

Audiophile is fine, but I have another room for that.  This room has high 96db speakers 7.1 already installed  and 2 farily fast 18 subs already.  I will be adding 4 ceiling speakers for the atmos.  Im fine with 2 or more hdmi and i dont care about pass thru preamp for hifi,if that helps.

Im not very up to date on recievers, been looking at the marantz but wondering what else is out there.

Thankj   Room is 2000 cubic feet,   100 inch screen 13 wide by 23 deep room

budget 500-2500 for preamp/receiver/integrated   and mainly as a pre/ room calibration

What’s your thing with 10" drivers??? Yeesh. That’s a tough ask for a center channel speaker and most likely a bit of overkill, no? But since you asked, by far the best and most dynamic and neutral center channel speaker I’ve ever heard is the ATC C6C. This thing can pin your ears to the sides of your head without strain or distortion. But then it only has two wimpy 9.5" bass drivers, ehem. But as you lament that last 0.5" of missing woofer diameter, the big dome midrange will punch you in the face to reset your focus. And don’t worry about an amp -- it’s active and has discrete internal amps powering each driver for a total of 350 Watts (not sure if it’s available in passive). Not bad for a center speaker, eh? Short of going to some big, hideous pro center speaker, you might have to fire up your workbench to craft something ballsier than this beast. To quote Ferris Bueller, "If you have the means, I highly recommend it." Best of luck.

So I built a center.  69 inch ribbon from a carver amazing. Jbl mids  and woofers.  Active with mini dsp.         Still playing with the crossover points but loving it
