not fish not bike ....

so, I have to go do my opinion kundt.
Brief history: I have in the last quarter had a number of receivers, from the Yamaha RX-V675, which did not appeal to me from the sound, about Onkyo TX-NR636 has a top menu and is very easy to use - unfortunately poor sound and provides NEN modest support has (Onkyo Germany), the Pioneer VSX-924-K - which delivers a great sound - voluminous, clear, really refreshing! Unfortunately bugged me since the purchase that the Wi-Fi dongle is no good, the system takes quite a long switching times and now and then the box just goes out or is no longer a video signal (all via HDMI). In addition, the ECO mode is a joke, saves 1-2 watts

But now the Denon marvel that I shot at cybermonday for 749.

PRO:
- Chic design
- Wireless LAN connection
- Newest features, Spotify, 4k fully ....
- Uncomplicated and very precise calibration system
- Simple remote control
- ECO mode saves up to 40% energy really a no loss of sound quality!

Neutral:
- App for Android is difficulty to handle
- Remote control can only be used for the AVR
- Passive cooling
- Easy to set up

Negatives:
- Sound can be customized hardly, if then only cumbersome and not really user-friendly
- Unit does not notice when changing the signal - in other words I switch from TV (stereo sound on DTS Neo Cinema X) on online music or Spotify to, the signal is only output in stereo. I would like to switch to DTS Neo X Music goes only with the remote control, not by app. and why remembers the crate that is not what sound format is preferred? All AVRs did!
- The device and to switch off easy
- Unit does not all speakers and are simply flat stereo out
- EIA 999 !!!

Conclusion:
I think the power of the Sound class, without question - the device however is not 999 respectively 849/749 value !!
The Pioneer VSX924 is at least equivalent if not better in almost all respects!
He would not have the above mentioned teething, I would not at first had the idea for Denon switch.
I think it is again the Pioneer because a money-making machine I do not have and have no interest for the same performance / handling excessive spending good 350 more!
"Tested" I have on my 5.1. System Harman Kardon HKTS 9 ....
