The main differences to the AVR-X1000 are Bluetooth 7.2 and not 5.1, as well as WLAN. If someone knows another "serious" differences, he can say yes like.
WLAN was me not so much important because with me everything goes via the network cable and I can therefore do without it. but "nice to have".
Is operated with the receiver devil Consono 35 Mk3 "5.1 set" and two additional satellite speakers from JBL. When I all had joined the boxing and had started a first test run I thought "well, so special that is not now ......".
:-) I wish I had just previously times the device performed with the setup microphone This takes about 15 minutes and is always worth.
The calibration is performed using the supplied microphone. This can be done either on a tripod or the included Papphalterung. The calibration is carried out through the setup of the receiver. This will be indicated to you at previous port on the TV or on the projector. The measurement is carried out at a total of eight different people. Take some time and makes it, even if it takes 15 minutes - it is all worth it.
After setting then again turned on music and you - WOW !!! I was, and am still overwhelmed.
After all this was now done, it was time to connect the devices. I use my receiver currently an Xbox One and a BL-Player from LG, which also acts as a media player on the network simultaneously. This signals are transmitted without difficulty at the projector.
Chic it would have been if the receiver would have 2 HDMI-out, but I think for the price you can on the already brilliant device do not expect anything.
Only minor cruelty was the connection of the speaker cables. I use cable with a cross section of 2.5 and because it was already quite narrow. But with a bit of flair and patience was ultimately this is no problem.
Short even for connecting Bluetooth and network.
The connection to my mobile phone worked wonderfully. It was immediately recognized. I quickly "streamed" a few songs and it worked flawlessly. Problems that it crashes every now and then as the AVR-X1000 I had not.
At home me everything is integrated into the network. The Denon immediately recognized my hard drive, which is connected to my FritzBox and found all the songs that were located on. He also realized my laptop, which is connected via WLAN with the Fritz box and played there all the songs from.
Internet Radio was not a problem. the search is extremely easy and it can be looking perfect for different styles of music. He reserves the recently accessed stations. One can also save it as a favorite and do not have it last forever looking.
However, Internet radio is a function which I will use less.
For me, I have primarily bought him for the use of movies and playing Xbox.
To this day, I regret the purchase in any way and am glad that I have struck at a price of 299 euros. Better it is not in my opinion at the price!
Appended I still have pictures of the calibration, the connections and the established directional microphone.
