Excellent overall AV and great price point!
I replaced a Denon AVR2113CI to go to 8K and add a number of wireless Home150 speakers throughout my multi storied house. The AVR2113CI is a great unit, however, I was forced to upgrade for a number of reasons. My initial impression is quite favorable and it was a direct installation swap for my older Denon. The sound quality with my Infinity speakers is absolutely wonderful. After several weeks of usage I can find nothing unfavorable to report. Picture quality, contrast, tone, etc., is outstanding with my Samsung TV. Audio quality is also outstanding and there is no distortion with the Home 150 wireless speakers whatsoever.
One thing worth noting here is that the Audyssey setup is slightly different with the newer Denon units. By that I mean that when calibrating your room sound field it will not allow you to set the Rear speakers unless you have middle speakers installed. In my previous installation I had a front, center, bass, and rear speaker configuration. However, Audyssey would not allow me to calibrate the config UNLESS there were middle speakers. It would not move to the rear speakers during calibration. So, I was forced to purchase two (2) Infinity center speakers to complete the calibration. I'm not complaining, it was just a bit of a surprise.
Other than that one quirk I'm extremely happy with the purchase and the price point for this AV. You can spend more money on a Denon AV, however, as I have always discovered, the speakers make all the difference in the end. Buy excellent speakers and save on the receiver.
