I got the Yamaha RXV6a /TSR-700 from Costco, its pretty solid with HDMI2.1, 8K upscaling and definitely future proof AV receiver at the $400 deal in Costco.. Yamaha's are built for solid quality and reliability, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone...
@@TwoGuyzTech Appreciate your videos, one of my go to UA-cam channels for Home Theatre audio... I also own couple of Yamaha Keyboards as well, and they sound great when connected to this receiver 🙂
My turn to rate things. I rate this channel as my favorite in terms of accurate reviews! Anyone I directed to this channel is now a fan as well. Appreciated!
Great content as usual! I actually just bought this a few weeks ago after going through some of your other reviews. I can say you really get a lot for the money and this receiver and it’s great as entry level.
Thank you very much for your support! We really do appreciate it and we're glad we were able to help make your decision a little easier. For an entry level receiver, it performs quite well! 😀
@@TwoGuyzTech That's what I ended up doing. We got the Costco Klipsch Atmos package and 2 subwoofers. Ended up running them with the Denon, then the Yamaha (because the Denon had some fluke issues). After listening to both, we returned the Yamaha and bought another Denon. They were both good to me, but the Yamaha seemed a bit harsh in the upper end, and lacked midrange in comparison. Could definitely be my room/listening preferences, but we're happy with the setup now. Thanks for the review!
I picked this up during Christmas 2020, and it's been great! The ease of use and functionality (Spotify, Internet Radio Stations) has been excellent. I have it hooked up with the Klipsch Reference Package (ironically from Costco) with an additional 2 RM41 for my own Dolby Atmos set up. I also have it directly connected to my 65 inch LG CX. Lastly, I have a Playstation 5 but it's directly connected to the TV vs the Denon, only because I wasn't sure about the HDMI 2.1 issue with receivers
Thanks for sharing!! The Klipsch pack is awesome as well! Costco is unexpectedly a really great place to get home theater gear haha. Enjoy the system and we're glad it's all coming together so well!! Thanks for watching :)
The klipsch setup that Costco is selling works awesome with this receiver. I have a 7.2 setup. I don’t have the 625FA Tower Speakers from Costco. I bought all my klipsch speakers at Best Buy during a sell they had 8 months ago. My speakers are r620f, r-52c, r-51m, insignia indoor speakers as atmos and 2 r-12sw subs. Works awesome!!!
Essentially the 620s are the same specs as the 625s from Klipsch. I was deciding what unit to pair with them in order to make use of the atmos speakers on the 625s. I have a Yamaha RX-V483 that of course won't cut it. The sound is just not there and of course it is not atmos capable. Thanks for confirming that this denon is capable.
I bought the same Denon 750 3 weeks ago at Costco here in orlando fl. I paid $60 for the Costco membership. The receiver is powerful and very clear surround sound. I definitely recommend this receiver.
I just bought the AV-S650H, and its pretty decent, especially for the price. Its not audiophile grade by any stretch of the imagination especially when paired with just cheap Polk T50's and 1 Polk subwoofer. I had to spend a couple days tweaking the configuration to get to where I wanted, and the Amazon Music integration is disappointing in that it only has access to PUBLIC playlists and not my custom ones. The only reason I didn't buy the 750 was because I have zero intention of ever going 7.1 in my house. Alexa integration further required me setting up some custom routines as HEOS doesn't seem to pass custom input names to Alexa, so therefore, for example, I have my PC connected to DVD .. and even though the input in named PC in the Denon config, Alexa wont switch to it by name. I had to make a routine that listened for "Alexa, switch to PC" but actually execute "Alexa, switch to DVD"
Got this receiver at Costco for 350.00. Also bought the klipsch reference 5.1 with wireless subwoofer and the additional 12" klipsch subwoofer all on sale. Works and sounds great inside the house problem I'm having is the zone 2 output. I have to outdoor speakers at the pool sound comes through plenty loud but very tinny and hardly any bass. There is no base and treble adjustments for zone 2 speakers so im kind of stuck with crapy outside sound quality. I like a lot of the features and the fact I can control the volume and source with my phone. There are also no output connections for a separate amp . I would have to return it and exchange it for the Yamaha unit that Costco sells to get those features not sure if it's worth the change. I emailed text support and requested a software update with bass and treble controls for zone 2 and people could just do the firmware update would make it a lot nicer. Paul
I liked your review and respect your opinions. Do you have any thoughts on how could make the zone 2 sound any better? I have tried everything i can think of 🤔
Thanks for watching and we apologize for the late response! Unfortunately this is a really weird issue and we're not sure what could be causing the sound from the Zone 2 output to be inferior. Contacting tech support was a great idea, but if all else fails, the Yamaha would be your next best bet. Hope this helps and thanks again for the kind words!
I had issues with the HDMI boards, switching failing and basically cutting out. I had two Denon receivers both have gone out in less then two years. Never again.
@@guitardoc102 dang I was just looking at this setup on Costco. Do you think you need to add on a powered Klipsch subwoofer or was the Dolby Atmos package good on the bass?
I just bought it in store to replace my 10 years old Denon 5.1(AVR-591) which is missing a lot of new features like ARC, Bluetooth. I did quick setup, listened for 30 minutes. I decided to return it. It didn't sound as good as my old one.
Thanks for watching & for the feedback! Older AVRs definitely had great sound quality and it's a shame that they're being made obsolete with a lack of features. We hope you can find a perfect receiver to upgrade to in the future!
I'm not used to paying for amplifiers, so I'm starting to check out some budget options. My first amp was my dad's old sony saved from the garage, and now a pioneer sc-61 with the ue-22 error I saved from a dumpster and repaired.
Just bought the 2019 750 series after first trying the Yamaha you compare it to Tried Yamaha TWICE but had nothing but failures on so MANY levels I sent both back I never do return things but they were nightmares which is sad as we are lifelong Yamaha buyers. Now I am unable to even find these listed at Costco? I may be past my 90 day return window as well and will check tomorrow. This breaks my heart since I game over 6-9 hours a day EVERY day as I’m retired. Bummer as my new Xbox X and PS5 would love this….
Thanks for watching and we're sorry to hear about the problems. Costco has a very liberal return policy and even if you're slightly over the 90 days, you should be able to get your money back no problem. With that said, we no longer recommend the AVR-S750H as Denon has just replaced it with the AVR-S760H which is also available at Costco and supports HDMI 2.1 features like 4K 120Hz with VRR and ALLM. We reviewed it here; ua-cam.com/video/LEYe8vU08U8/v-deo.html
I used to own a Harman Kardon that had a great feature. I was able to split a 2.0 into 5.1 which made all the difference when listening to music or tv. Do these have similar software modes?
Hi, I have this AVR and so far loving it. However I have noticed that while playing Dolby Atmos content through a 5.1 speaker system the FR,FL,RR & RL speakers are so loud sometimes I can't here what's being said in the center channel. I set the speakers up manually myself, other content DD, DTX etc sound correct. Suggesions...???
🚨 Question - I went with this receiver over the Yamaha of similar price point due to the expectation of warmer/richer sound. Literally placed an order at midnight after watching this very video. HOWEVER, I did take a gamble which I'll explain in a sec, and I'm hoping you can confirm whether or not I should be okay. I have an XBox Series X connected directly to an LG CX65 which does a beautiful job with 4K@120. TV in turn is transmitting audio to an older Pioneer 5.1 receiver via ARC. Stereo because ARC has it's limits. Now, I have a set of speakers that can do 7.2 and thought I'd go with the Denon even though it does NOT do HDMI 2.1 with the idea of using eARC. So, the SeriesX continues to feed 4K@120 to TV which then relays audio over eARC to this Denon receiver. It's my understanding that eARC can do the various 3D sound profiles, when though it's using HDMI 2B. Am I right that I'll be able to do full 7.2 surround over eARC? Or am I mistaken? I could have made it easy and give with the Yamaha to ensure 4K@120 plus DTS:X and the rest, but I wanted that Denon sound and thought this would work. What are your thoughts? Can I expect my plan to work or will I be disappointed? Worse comes to worst, I swap it for the Yamaha. Let me know your thoughts man. Thanks. Enjoying your other videos.
Thank you very much for the kind words and the support! The way you explained this setup, yes, it should work as intended. eARC is capable of transmitting Dolby ATMOS and DTS:X (essentially all the same formats supported by an HDMI 2.0b 4K 60Hz connection, as if you connected an HDMI cable between your Blu-ray player and your receiver, so any configuration should work) so you'll be good! Let us know how it plays out! Hope this helps :)
I've had Yamaha and onkyo and they are awesome but I always wanted to try a demonstration receiver...but the Yamaha has the newest hdmi so I'd have to go with it since I'm into pc gaming
For the money, the features, and the nice, clean sound, HEOS and Alexa...and a decent remote control, this is a great 'receiver'. Your selection of speakers will make it or break it, though. I'd found that using a 15 year old set of Yamaha YMT Home Theater kit speakers (6 ohm), made this amplifier 'sing'! PLENTY of power with two subwoofers (I'm doing 5.2 w/Atmos). Reliability will be a factor. The SONY amp this DENON replaced crapped out after 4 years of little use. Now THAT was a crap receiver (gift).
I replaced my Denon with the Yamaha TSR-700 from Costco. I have to disagree on two points; 1 - even rated at 75 watts per channel, once all the digital signal processing kicks in, what reaches your speakers is roughly 60 watts - even with efficient speakers, the system struggles; 2 - Yamaha is rated at 100 watts into 8 ohms, two channels driven at a lower distortion level. That being said, my Canton 5.1 system literally came to life - the clarity is unprecedented in comparison. The Onkyo is no longer available - I would have tested that AVR but it appears a restructuring is going on, and Onkyo is in dire financial straights. I reccomend the Yamaha - but getting used to the new look is still a struggle, but the performance its amazing.
Thanks for watching! We do agree that the Yamaha does have more power than the Denon, but we do feel that the receiver did pretty well with more efficient speakers at reasonable listening levels. We sit about 9 feet away from the front soundstage - it can be difficult for a lower end unit to fill a big room, and it only gets worse as you get further away from the screen. 👍
@@Audiomainia2310 I totally agree with you I’m having troubles with my Denon amp it won’t stop clipping my speakers and I had onkyo for years and never had a issue I would wish they could give my money back so I could get the Yamaha.
Great video- very balanced. It would be great if Costco did at least one mid range AVR. I tend to replace them every 10 years and don’t mind paying a bit more. I got their Klipsch reference bundle and waiting for the next wave of AVRs. My onkyo is 5 years old but still cranking out Dolby atmos. Just waiting for hdmi 2.1 to get sorted in the next generation of avrs.
Thanks for watching & great point!! Hopefully HDMI 2.1 support does get fixed in the new models coming out. We do wish Costco offered midrange receivers - if they ever do, we'd absolutely try to get our hands on them! :)
Hi TwoGuyzTech, Thank you for your excellent channels and videos. I am a new Subscriber and fan. You said in the video, that you would choose for overall, the Denon S750H over Yamaha TSR-700? Will your pick be Denon 1) For Music? and 2) For Home Theater? Your Expert Opinion please. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words and the support! It's really hard to say. These are all great receivers and it mostly depends on the sound that you like over all else. The greater power output of the Yamaha receiver would definitely help in stereo music listening if you don't want to use a subwoofer, but I do prefer the more laid back sound of the Denon. For home theater, they're both equally as great and it mostly comes down to features like HDMI 2.1 on the Yamaha while the Denon is limited to HDMI 2.0b. Hope this helps explain our position and thanks again! 😀
i really dont understand receivers now a days. i got my onkyo 708 back in 2010ish and its 110w at 8ohm with 0.08 7ch driven. ive been wanting to upgrade but refuse to step down in power. why are they even manufacturing receivers with such weak power ratings? i feel like mine is even under powered for my klipsch setup
I’m looking at doing a 5.1 in ceiling with 3 focal 100 ICLCR5s up front and 2 focal 100ICW6 as the rears. A klipsch 12sw as a sub. Was recommended to get the demon 2700 but would love to save several 100 dollars with the 750. What do you think?
Depending on the efficiency of your speakers the 20 extra watts per channel you would get with the 2700 may be worth it for the extra headroom. Hope this helps.😀
Great review! Definitely going to get one of the three from Costco but would like some input. Planning on replacing an Onkyo TX-NR636. I like that it I has the ability to output to two different zones, which I have the 2nd zone assigned to outdoor speakers. Do any of the Costco receivers have multi zone capabilities? TIA
I run a Denon AVR X3000 bose base module with bose 501 tower I crank up the music. I'm sure it could be tuned a little more. At my age sounds little complicated lol
Thank you for watching! we don't have a video for this but its pretty basic, just manually adjust speaker levels and distance, then adjust the sound to your liking. Every receiver and processor is unique as far as adjusting goes so it would be hard to make a one size fits all video to cover this topic. Hope this helps and good luck with your setup :)
i have denon 750 for a couple months. i have not run audyssey. but i need to run room correction, the first step, at least right? so it knows there is subwoofer present and helps me set subwoofer volume, dials in distance and levesl of speakers etc. (which ill dial in) id like to see how it sounds before running audyssey. id put my speakers to small and 80 does that make sense? first time home theater owner
Thanks for watching! You should be able to configure all of these settings (how many speakers, subwoofer present/not present, etc.) in the Denon's setup interface without running Audyssey. The manual should tell you where these options are, all you'll really need for now is a tape measure to measure the distance between your speakers and the listening position. Hope this helps! :)
hello! i ordered this one and the Klipsch RP-504C, in the future i will updrade with two bookshelfs for the front and the back. can it handel my center channel?
Thanks for watching!! The RP-504C is a very efficient speaker so it should be fine running from the Denon, but we haven't tried this personally. Your mileage may vary. :)
That's a nice center channel speaker. Klipsch is well-known for it's Tractrix horns, which I believe produces the high sensitivity at 97db like yours and mine has. It will more than handle that speaker and is in my opinion a good, not the best, but a good pairing. I think you'll get your money's worth.
@@lkprasanna There are 2 RCA outputs on the back of the receiver (sub 1 and 2). You'll connect the subs to these outputs. Use high quality RCA cables for this (not Monster).
thank you very much for the review. do I understand well, that for tower speakers this one is not enough? I´ve JAMO S 809 HCS .. I´m so much confused when I see the real power is somewhere else than written on description from manufacturer... thank you
It has more to do with the efficiency of the speakers, not so much whether it's a tower or a bookshelf. It looks like your speakers have an efficiency of 90dB which is pretty good. the only way to know for sure though is to try the speakers with the receiver, that way you can evaluate the sound also. Thanks for watching!
I also have the Denon.with the JamoS 809 Tower Speaker Yamo S 801 Rear Surround S 83: Center Speaker & the Jamo J-10 Sub. It all sounds excellent. Just follow the directions and go through the proper set up. I was informed with this speaker set up that we have, It will only use about 35 to 45 watts from the 75 W per channel that the Denon is capable of. I’m very pleased 😀.
Thanks for watching! This is going to depend a lot on the type of sound that you like. As we mentioned, the Yamaha seemed to present more of an airy, detailed sound - while the Denon had more of a laid back and warmer sound. Power is another factor to consider - if you have less efficient speakers that you want to run full range, the Yamaha's higher power output is probably going to be a better choice. Hope this helps! :)
How would you say this compares to the Onkyo TX-NR595? I've read/heard the Onkyo has more of a clear and crisp sound quality compared to a more smooth and warm sound quality with the Denon. Do you find this to be the case? Is sound detail better with one over the other?
Thanks for watching! We think that's a very good description on the differences between those two models. Although we enjoy both of these receivers very much, and we feel they're both very detailed for the price, we did prefer the Denon over the Onkyo. Hope this helps :)
I wish a company would make a simple receiver with no streaming, just Bluetooth and radio, HDMI-only (single output that is fully 2.1 featured), maybe front L-R RCA pre-outs, so by taking out the fluff would get the price down, but include the virtualizations of the higher cost models.
Thanks for watching! Dolby ATMOS should automatically be activated once you start playing content that has Dolby ATMOS enabled, like a 4K Blu-ray with an ATMOS track. Make sure that your source device is connected over HDMI, and if you're using eARC, make sure the TV has full eARC support. Hope this helps! 😀
I have been doing this for some time. The video is great. But think of the future, maybe save a little and get the higher command system. This way you have the best. Not knocking Costco, but maybe just save a little more and wait. I wish I did. It's your choice. Happy listening.
Thanks for the kind words! Yep, we agree that you should get the best you can afford - and these receivers represent a great value for customers that don't have enough money to get a higher end unit or doesn't want to spend any more money than this for a good experience. I've enjoyed this hobby for a lot of years and, naturally, I've slowly built up my system - if you wanna check it out, we've made a lot of videos on the stuff that I have in my main theater - but these cheaper units still manage to surprise us with their sound quality. 😀
You said you’re sensitive to certain speakers and receivers, and that they give you ear fatigue. I just got my first system (pioneer VSX-1300, Polk center speaker, and 4 Aim8Two ceiling speakers). After listening to them for a short time, and at listening volumes, my ears feel full, like I have to pop them and there’s a soreness to them. It has made me want to get a different receiver. What have you done to minimize ear fatigue? Any advice would help.
Unfortunately, it's hard to find the root cause of ear fatigue in a system. I'd say that the type of ear fatigue that I experience is very similar to what you described, I'm very sensitive to overly 'bright' and 'shouty' systems. Sometimes the only way to get around this is with trial and error, so you could try replacing the receiver first and seeing if that helps solve the problem. If your AVR also has built-in EQ, you could try toning down the upper frequencies a few dB. Hope this helps!
I currently have the Denon AVR-1508 that does not do audio over HDMI. I think it is 15+ years old. I want to upgrade to a receiver with 7.2 surround, has on screen TV display for menu & control, built in Wi-Fi & Bluetooth & either a back-lit remote or app control. My budget is $1000. Which do y'all recommend? Cheers!
This receiver would go great with that set! We even made a review on the Klipsch set, which you can find at this link; ua-cam.com/video/Nk1HpROn-98/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!
New subscriber. I'm just getting into AV receivers. I'm coming from a logitech z906 complete surround system but looking to upgrade. Mainly for video games on samsung Q90R tv with xbox series x. Which reciever would be the best out of these to choose?
Thanks for watching! We think all of them are great options and it's hard to pick a winner. We would suggest just seeing what's available in your area, according to some polls that we've done most people like the Yamaha the best so there's something to consider. Thank you for the sub and we hope you enjoy your future system! :)
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we haven't had a chance to review the X1600H, so we can't really speak for the similarities and differences between it and the S750H, but it does look like the X1600H provides a little more power for the speakers. In the end, the best way to decide is to see if you can listen to both and decide if the higher price of the X1600H is worth it to you! Hope this helps! :)
Great upload as i am picking this up today, im trying to fine clarification though... does only the 8k port on this receiver pass 4k 120hz? i have both PS5 and XSX and i want to be able to use both with my Sony X900H since one of that TV's HDMI 2.1 ports is also EARC
As we mentioned in the video, the AVR-S750H only has HDMI 2.0b, so it can only pass 4K 60Hz, the only way to make it work with the PS5 or XBX is to use eARC directly through the TV without passing any video through the AVR. That's how we set ours up
Thanks for watching! I've never heard them personally, but they do seem to get good reviews. In the end, it's all about what you like and what sounds good to you! 😀
So........the company that owns Denon also owns/owned pioneer? They look very similar and I love my pioneer VSX-519V but it's old and only capable of 5.2 Dolby digital. I have an elite pioneer center channel and pioneer 100 watt 10" subwoofer with JVC left, right and rear surrounds that sound amazing for what they are at their price point. I'm just wondering if Denon is now also Pioneer and I will be as happy with Denon as I am with pioneer. I'd really like a Mareantz 9.2 AVR but don't know if I want to justify the cost.
Thank you both for watching! It all depends on the sound that you like, but we would imagine that you'll be as happy with a similarly priced Denon as you are with your current Pioneer. 👍
So, Im not sure what Im doing, but I seem to have ended up with 2 polk audio polk rt2000i towers, a pair of RTi10s, a CSi3, a CSi40, a PSW202, a couple M20 blacks, and a pair of f/xi3s... for about $200.... Now i need to find a receiver... and figure out where the hell to set it all up at....
Thanks for watching - if you're looking at options around this $500 mark, we feel that the Onkyo TX-NR6050 is your best bet right now - check out our review here; ua-cam.com/video/eZkyuy97-Qo/v-deo.html Hope this helps :)
@@TwoGuyzTech what sucks about that is thats more than I currently have in my bank account lol, it might be cheaper do find someone to go through my denon avr-2313ci thats got a "sometimes I work, sometimes I don't" issue.
The Klipsch speakers are very efficient so the Denon should drive them fine, I haven't heard the Klipsch system they sell so I cant vouch for the sound quality. The great thing about Costco is the 90 day return policy so you could give them a try and see how you like them. Thanks for watching!
I can confirm. The klipsch setup that Costco is selling works awesome with this receiver. I have a 7.2 setup. I don’t have the 625FA Tower Speakers from Costco. I bought all my klipsch speakers at Best Buy during a sell they had 8 months ago. My speakers are r620f, r-52c, r-51m, insignia indoor speakers as atmos and 2 r-12sw subs. Works awesome!!!
Thanks for watching! We're sorry you're having problems, that's never fun. Sounds like a bad HDMI connection so either try a different cable, source device, or get the receiver exchanged/returned if possible. Hope this helps you out.
Thanks for watching! Not currently. New AVRs are coming out that seem to have worked out a lot of the HDMI 2.1 issues of older models, but we won't know for sure until they're actually out.
Yesterday we just went to our local Costco stoor and bought a Denon AVR-S760H. Can you tell me what the difference is between the S750 and S760. I would assume that the full pallet we got the box from were all the same S760 models. I went to Denon and they don't even have that nomenclature listed. But the S750 they did list. Many thanks TwoGuysz
Does dolby atmos work on 7.2 or just 5.2? Can you also just run two front channels for music? Planning to grab one this week, seems like one of the best price and quality range and they partners with polk, marantz, so can't go wrong with that!
Thanks for watching! You can only use DOLBY ATMOS in a 5 surround channel configuration so only a 5.2. You could also just run two front channels for music and it would work fine. You get a lot for the money! 😀
@@TwoGuyzTech ok got it, bought the Dolby Atmos speaker set from Costco which is 5.1 and fires up 2 speakers to the ceiling which is on sale right now and trying to work out how is the best way to get full experience with dolby atmos for movie experience 🤔 thanks!
Only reason I keep my good old Harman Kardon AVR2600 is because its hard to get close to a newer unit that does upscaling from other sources to HDMI in a decent price range :-/ We have some older consoles and they work well on my old amp :-) but eventually I'll have to upgrade >_
Awh man, that's too bad!! Keep watching out for sales, Costco discounts these AVRs quite a lot if you haven't bought one already. Good luck and thank you very much for watching :)
The Polk Monitor 60s have a sensitivity of 90dB @ 1w/2.83v from 1 meter away, meaning they're reasonably efficient speakers that are easy to drive, so the Denon should have no problem powering these speakers, so long as you're not trying to run them in a massive room or outdoor setting. Hope this helps and thanks for watching! :)
A question for the people that have this receiver. When I am watching a show or movie with a Chromecast with google TV connected to the receiver, every once in a while, the receiver acts as if I just changed inputs. The sound turns off for about 3 seconds and the video for about 5 seconds. The show continues in the background and comes back up. I have tried to find answers on Reddit, but nothing that will help fix it. The only thing I can find is a HDCP communication issue. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for watching! It is absolutely safe to connect the HDMI coming out of your HD satellite recorder box to one of the HDMI inputs on your AV receiver. Do NOT connect the coaxial line running from the dish into the coaxial FM jack on the AVR, as this could damage it.
@@Guiltless765 Integra makes some great stuff, been running a DTC-9.8 in our theater for the past 12 years now. Hope the Denon works out for you man!! :)
Yea... Checked four Costcos. None available. Not available online. I get tired of Costco for this very reason. I pay money to shop there, they move everything around, and half of the time don't have anything in stock.
Great review..I always run room correction..but then tweak it as you suggest. For me the back surrounds are never set loud enough I have to strain to hear them..."are those things on?"
Thanks for watching! Yep it's very important to tweak your system exactly to your liking. In the end it's all about enjoying the way your system sounds! 😀
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we're not sure if Denon offers a multi-voltage version of this receiver. The S750H as it's sold in the United States is designed to run on 110/120VAC 60Hz, but they might have an equivalent model designed to be used in 220/240VAC countries. We would suggest contacting Denon support to see if they offer a similar model for your region. Hope this helps!!
Well does this one sync with bose qc35 or equivalent headphones. that was the problem with my Yamaha. I could not watch movies wearing the headphones because the sync was off.
I got the Yamaha RXV6a /TSR-700 from Costco, its pretty solid with HDMI2.1, 8K upscaling and definitely future proof AV receiver at the $400 deal in Costco.. Yamaha's are built for solid quality and reliability, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone...
We definitely do recommend the Yamaha as well! Great receiver for a very similar price. Thanks for watching!! 😀
I have 7 Denon whole house wireless speakers so they only work with the Denon receiver.
@@TwoGuyzTech Appreciate your videos, one of my go to UA-cam channels for Home Theatre audio... I also own couple of Yamaha Keyboards as well, and they sound great when connected to this receiver 🙂

Same story here and I tottaly agree with you! (Upgraded from Pioneer 321)
They have it in stores, yes. Sweet deal. Warning: If you go in for this you may also leave with a set of Klipsch speakers, too.
That sub was nice. Not gonna lie!
Thanks for watching guys! We actually bought the Klipsch speakers and we'll have a review made pretty soon! 😉
@@TwoGuyzTech That's what I ended up doing. We got the Costco Klipsch Atmos package and 2 subwoofers. Ended up running them with the Denon, then the Yamaha (because the Denon had some fluke issues). After listening to both, we returned the Yamaha and bought another Denon. They were both good to me, but the Yamaha seemed a bit harsh in the upper end, and lacked midrange in comparison. Could definitely be my room/listening preferences, but we're happy with the setup now.
Thanks for the review!
The mic is also there to set speaker distances. Instead of using a tape measure.
I know it's been stated a lot but I'm currently rocking this with klipsch reference speakers. The system sounds great.
Thanks for watching!! We're glad to hear it! :)
Same here! Cheers!
Yup same here!
I picked this up during Christmas 2020, and it's been great! The ease of use and functionality (Spotify, Internet Radio Stations) has been excellent. I have it hooked up with the Klipsch Reference Package (ironically from Costco) with an additional 2 RM41 for my own Dolby Atmos set up. I also have it directly connected to my 65 inch LG CX. Lastly, I have a Playstation 5 but it's directly connected to the TV vs the Denon, only because I wasn't sure about the HDMI 2.1 issue with receivers
Thanks for sharing!! The Klipsch pack is awesome as well! Costco is unexpectedly a really great place to get home theater gear haha. Enjoy the system and we're glad it's all coming together so well!! Thanks for watching :)
The klipsch setup that Costco is selling works awesome with this receiver. I have a 7.2 setup. I don’t have the 625FA Tower Speakers from Costco. I bought all my klipsch speakers at Best Buy during a sell they had 8 months ago. My speakers are r620f, r-52c, r-51m, insignia indoor speakers as atmos and 2 r-12sw subs. Works awesome!!!
Thanks for sharing and for watching!! That's really good to hear! This receiver is great for more efficient speakers like the Klipsch. 😀
Essentially the 620s are the same specs as the 625s from Klipsch. I was deciding what unit to pair with them in order to make use of the atmos speakers on the 625s. I have a Yamaha RX-V483 that of course won't cut it. The sound is just not there and of course it is not atmos capable. Thanks for confirming that this denon is capable.
I bought the same Denon 750 3 weeks ago at Costco here in orlando fl. I paid $60 for the Costco membership. The receiver is powerful and very clear surround sound. I definitely recommend this receiver.
Good to hear!! Thanks for watching and we're glad you like the receiver :)
I just bought the AV-S650H, and its pretty decent, especially for the price. Its not audiophile grade by any stretch of the imagination especially when paired with just cheap Polk T50's and 1 Polk subwoofer. I had to spend a couple days tweaking the configuration to get to where I wanted, and the Amazon Music integration is disappointing in that it only has access to PUBLIC playlists and not my custom ones. The only reason I didn't buy the 750 was because I have zero intention of ever going 7.1 in my house. Alexa integration further required me setting up some custom routines as HEOS doesn't seem to pass custom input names to Alexa, so therefore, for example, I have my PC connected to DVD .. and even though the input in named PC in the Denon config, Alexa wont switch to it by name. I had to make a routine that listened for "Alexa, switch to PC" but actually execute "Alexa, switch to DVD"
I wish you could've added your take on music playback aswell on these 3 receivers, great video anyway!
What a great, straight to the point review. Thank you, just subscribed.
Thank you very much! We appreciate the support.😀
Got this receiver at Costco for 350.00. Also bought the klipsch reference 5.1 with wireless subwoofer and the additional 12" klipsch subwoofer all on sale. Works and sounds great inside the house problem I'm having is the zone 2 output. I have to outdoor speakers at the pool sound comes through plenty loud but very tinny and hardly any bass. There is no base and treble adjustments for zone 2 speakers so im kind of stuck with crapy outside sound quality. I like a lot of the
features and the fact I can control the volume and source with my phone. There are also no output connections for a separate amp . I would have to return it and exchange it for the Yamaha unit that Costco sells to get those features not sure if it's worth the change. I emailed text support and requested a software update with bass and treble controls for zone 2 and people could just do the firmware update would make it a lot nicer.
Paul
I liked your review and respect your opinions. Do you have any thoughts on how could make the zone 2 sound any better? I have tried everything i can think of 🤔
Thanks for watching and we apologize for the late response! Unfortunately this is a really weird issue and we're not sure what could be causing the sound from the Zone 2 output to be inferior. Contacting tech support was a great idea, but if all else fails, the Yamaha would be your next best bet. Hope this helps and thanks again for the kind words!
I had issues with the HDMI boards, switching failing and basically cutting out. I had two Denon receivers both have gone out in less then two years. Never again.
This was insanely helpful! Thanks
Glad it was helpful! Thank you very much 😀
That receiver should pair perfectly with Costco's Klipsch Atmos speaker system in small to medium sized rooms.
We agree! It'd be a fantastic value as well. Thanks for watching! 😀
That’s just what I did and I’m happy with the results.
Did the same, pretty happy with it. The audessy set my towers to large after watching this I set them to small and got much better punchier mids.
@@guitardoc102 dang I was just looking at this setup on Costco. Do you think you need to add on a powered Klipsch subwoofer or was the Dolby Atmos package good on the bass?
@@smarthomesolo9520 I got the 12” klipsch sub from Costco on sale for 169.00. My system is now complete.
I have this Denon receiver with the Jamo Series S HCS speaker system Sound great for music or movies
I just bought it in store to replace my 10 years old Denon 5.1(AVR-591) which is missing a lot of new features like ARC, Bluetooth. I did quick setup, listened for 30 minutes. I decided to return it. It didn't sound as good as my old one.
Thanks for watching & for the feedback! Older AVRs definitely had great sound quality and it's a shame that they're being made obsolete with a lack of features. We hope you can find a perfect receiver to upgrade to in the future!
Thank you!
I'm not used to paying for amplifiers, so I'm starting to check out some budget options. My first amp was my dad's old sony saved from the garage, and now a pioneer sc-61 with the ue-22 error I saved from a dumpster and repaired.
Just bought the 2019 750 series after first trying the Yamaha you compare it to Tried Yamaha TWICE but had nothing but failures on so MANY levels I sent both back I never do return things but they were nightmares which is sad as we are lifelong Yamaha buyers. Now I am unable to even find these listed at Costco? I may be past my 90 day return window as well and will check tomorrow. This breaks my heart since I game over 6-9 hours a day EVERY day as I’m retired. Bummer as my new Xbox X and PS5 would love this….
Thanks for watching and we're sorry to hear about the problems. Costco has a very liberal return policy and even if you're slightly over the 90 days, you should be able to get your money back no problem. With that said, we no longer recommend the AVR-S750H as Denon has just replaced it with the AVR-S760H which is also available at Costco and supports HDMI 2.1 features like 4K 120Hz with VRR and ALLM. We reviewed it here; ua-cam.com/video/LEYe8vU08U8/v-deo.html
I used to own a Harman Kardon that had a great feature. I was able to split a 2.0 into 5.1 which made all the difference when listening to music or tv. Do these have similar software modes?
Pretty much any avr will do that nowadays
Remodeling the kitchen, installing four, 8" ceiling speakers. Want to utilize alexa, Suggestions on speakers and amp (will hardwire the speakers)?
Hi, I have this AVR and so far loving it. However I have noticed that while playing Dolby Atmos content through a 5.1 speaker system the FR,FL,RR & RL speakers are so loud sometimes I can't here what's being said in the center channel. I set the speakers up manually myself, other content DD, DTX etc sound correct. Suggesions...???
🚨 Question -
I went with this receiver over the Yamaha of similar price point due to the expectation of warmer/richer sound. Literally placed an order at midnight after watching this very video.
HOWEVER, I did take a gamble which I'll explain in a sec, and I'm hoping you can confirm whether or not I should be okay.
I have an XBox Series X connected directly to an LG CX65 which does a beautiful job with 4K@120. TV in turn is transmitting audio to an older Pioneer 5.1 receiver via ARC. Stereo because ARC has it's limits. Now, I have a set of speakers that can do 7.2 and thought I'd go with the Denon even though it does NOT do HDMI 2.1 with the idea of using eARC. So, the SeriesX continues to feed 4K@120 to TV which then relays audio over eARC to this Denon receiver.
It's my understanding that eARC can do the various 3D sound profiles, when though it's using HDMI 2B.
Am I right that I'll be able to do full 7.2 surround over eARC? Or am I mistaken?
I could have made it easy and give with the Yamaha to ensure 4K@120 plus DTS:X and the rest, but I wanted that Denon sound and thought this would work. What are your thoughts? Can I expect my plan to work or will I be disappointed?
Worse comes to worst, I swap it for the Yamaha.
Let me know your thoughts man. Thanks. Enjoying your other videos.
Thank you very much for the kind words and the support! The way you explained this setup, yes, it should work as intended. eARC is capable of transmitting Dolby ATMOS and DTS:X (essentially all the same formats supported by an HDMI 2.0b 4K 60Hz connection, as if you connected an HDMI cable between your Blu-ray player and your receiver, so any configuration should work) so you'll be good! Let us know how it plays out! Hope this helps :)
I've had Yamaha and onkyo and they are awesome but I always wanted to try a demonstration receiver...but the Yamaha has the newest hdmi so I'd have to go with it since I'm into pc gaming
For the money, the features, and the nice, clean sound, HEOS and Alexa...and a decent remote control, this is a great 'receiver'. Your selection of speakers will make it or break it, though. I'd found that using a 15 year old set of Yamaha YMT Home Theater kit speakers (6 ohm), made this amplifier 'sing'! PLENTY of power with two subwoofers (I'm doing 5.2 w/Atmos). Reliability will be a factor. The SONY amp this DENON replaced crapped out after 4 years of little use. Now THAT was a crap receiver (gift).
Thank you very much for watching and for the thoughts on this receiver! It really is amazing how good of a sound it provides at this price point.
I replaced my Denon with the Yamaha TSR-700 from Costco.
I have to disagree on two points;
1 - even rated at 75 watts per channel, once all the digital signal processing kicks in, what reaches your speakers is roughly 60 watts - even with efficient speakers, the system struggles;
2 - Yamaha is rated at 100 watts into 8 ohms, two channels driven at a lower distortion level. That being said, my Canton 5.1 system literally came to life - the clarity is unprecedented in comparison.
The Onkyo is no longer available - I would have tested that AVR but it appears a restructuring is going on, and Onkyo is in dire financial straights.
I reccomend the Yamaha - but getting used to the new look is still a struggle, but the performance its amazing.
Thanks for watching! We do agree that the Yamaha does have more power than the Denon, but we do feel that the receiver did pretty well with more efficient speakers at reasonable listening levels. We sit about 9 feet away from the front soundstage - it can be difficult for a lower end unit to fill a big room, and it only gets worse as you get further away from the screen. 👍
with Klipsch speakers, it shouldn't matter. Just saying
@@joeygonzo With high efficiency speakers of course not. But I don't use Klipsh. I'm running Cantons right now - KEF are next.
@@Audiomainia2310 I totally agree with you I’m having troubles with my Denon amp it won’t stop clipping my speakers and I had onkyo for years and never had a issue I would wish they could give my money back so I could get the Yamaha.
@@Lowkey_nxthxn Which model Denon are you having issues with if I may ask?
Great video- very balanced. It would be great if Costco did at least one mid range AVR. I tend to replace them every 10 years and don’t mind paying a bit more. I got their Klipsch reference bundle and waiting for the next wave of AVRs. My onkyo is 5 years old but still cranking out Dolby atmos. Just waiting for hdmi 2.1 to get sorted in the next generation of avrs.
Thanks for watching & great point!! Hopefully HDMI 2.1 support does get fixed in the new models coming out. We do wish Costco offered midrange receivers - if they ever do, we'd absolutely try to get our hands on them! :)
Hi TwoGuyzTech, Thank you for your excellent channels and videos. I am a new Subscriber and fan. You said in the video, that you would choose for overall, the Denon S750H over Yamaha TSR-700? Will your pick be Denon 1) For Music? and 2) For Home Theater? Your Expert Opinion please. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words and the support! It's really hard to say. These are all great receivers and it mostly depends on the sound that you like over all else. The greater power output of the Yamaha receiver would definitely help in stereo music listening if you don't want to use a subwoofer, but I do prefer the more laid back sound of the Denon. For home theater, they're both equally as great and it mostly comes down to features like HDMI 2.1 on the Yamaha while the Denon is limited to HDMI 2.0b. Hope this helps explain our position and thanks again! 😀
Yes a great review 👍👍👍👍👍😁
i really dont understand receivers now a days. i got my onkyo 708 back in 2010ish and its 110w at 8ohm with 0.08 7ch driven. ive been wanting to upgrade but refuse to step down in power. why are they even manufacturing receivers with such weak power ratings? i feel like mine is even under powered for my klipsch setup
I’m looking at doing a 5.1 in ceiling with 3 focal 100 ICLCR5s up front and 2 focal 100ICW6 as the rears. A klipsch 12sw as a sub. Was recommended to get the demon 2700 but would love to save several 100 dollars with the 750. What do you think?
Depending on the efficiency of your speakers the 20 extra watts per channel you would get with the 2700 may be worth it for the extra headroom. Hope this helps.😀
Great review! Definitely going to get one of the three from Costco but would like some input. Planning on replacing an Onkyo TX-NR636. I like that it I has the ability to output to two different zones, which I have the 2nd zone assigned to outdoor speakers. Do any of the Costco receivers have multi zone capabilities? TIA
I run a Denon AVR X3000 bose base module with bose 501 tower I crank up the music. I'm sure it could be tuned a little more. At my age sounds little complicated lol
Hope you enjoy the system!! Thanks for watching :)
Can this receiver use A and B speakers? So if I want the 5 channels for surround sound on one channel I can and 2 outdoor speakers on b channel I can?
If I'm going with the Klipsch Costco package, what receiver would you recommend?
Hi and than you for watching! This Denon would be a great choice :)
Love your videos! Do you have a video on how to do room calibration manually ? Since that’s how you guys always do it
Thank you for watching! we don't have a video for this but its pretty basic, just manually adjust speaker levels and distance, then adjust the sound to your liking. Every receiver and processor is unique as far as adjusting goes so it would be hard to make a one size fits all video to cover this topic. Hope this helps and good luck with your setup :)
@@TwoGuyzTech Thank You! I'll give it a try!
i have denon 750 for a couple months.
i have not run audyssey.
but i need to run room correction, the first step, at least right? so it knows there is subwoofer present and helps me set subwoofer volume, dials in distance and levesl of speakers etc. (which ill dial in)
id like to see how it sounds before running audyssey.
id put my speakers to small and 80
does that make sense?
first time home theater owner
Thanks for watching! You should be able to configure all of these settings (how many speakers, subwoofer present/not present, etc.) in the Denon's setup interface without running Audyssey. The manual should tell you where these options are, all you'll really need for now is a tape measure to measure the distance between your speakers and the listening position. Hope this helps! :)
hello! i ordered this one and the Klipsch RP-504C, in the future i will updrade with two bookshelfs for the front and the back. can it handel my center channel?
Thanks for watching!! The RP-504C is a very efficient speaker so it should be fine running from the Denon, but we haven't tried this personally. Your mileage may vary. :)
That's a nice center channel speaker. Klipsch is well-known for it's Tractrix horns, which I believe produces the high sensitivity at 97db like yours and mine has. It will more than handle that speaker and is in my opinion a good, not the best, but a good pairing. I think you'll get your money's worth.
Great review! Which of the 3 av receiver would you recommend for wharfedale diamond 9.5 fronts, 9.1 surrounds 9cs center. Thank you
Out of the three we ended up liking the Denon best, the the others are also pretty good for the money. Hope this helps & thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review. Is it possible to connect 2 subwoofers to this receiver? What kind of wires should I use?
Yes and 14-2 copper speaker wire
@@tonym2513 thanks for your response. To which ports should I connect the subwoofer and are they not of type, rca instead of the regular connectors.
@@lkprasanna There are 2 RCA outputs on the back of the receiver (sub 1 and 2). You'll connect the subs to these outputs. Use high quality RCA cables for this (not Monster).
Any thoughts on the AVR-s760h that costco just started sneaking onto shelves? Seems to be a definite upgrade over the 750 with 3 8k passthroughs.
Haven't gotten a chance to review it yet but it seems pretty promising! Thanks for letting us know about this! :)
thank you very much for the review. do I understand well, that for tower speakers this one is not enough? I´ve JAMO S 809 HCS ..
I´m so much confused when I see the real power is somewhere else than written on description from manufacturer...
thank you
It has more to do with the efficiency of the speakers, not so much whether it's a tower or a bookshelf. It looks like your speakers have an efficiency of 90dB which is pretty good. the only way to know for sure though is to try the speakers with the receiver, that way you can evaluate the sound also. Thanks for watching!
@@TwoGuyzTech thank you very much for your kind comment :)
@@jaroslavposs8995 Thank you for the support! :)
I also have the Denon.with the
JamoS 809 Tower Speaker
Yamo S 801 Rear Surround
S 83: Center Speaker & the Jamo J-10 Sub. It all sounds excellent. Just follow the directions and go through the proper set up. I was informed with this speaker set up that we have, It will only use about 35 to 45 watts from the 75 W per channel that the Denon is capable of. I’m very pleased 😀.
@@scottyp137 great to read this 🙃 thank you
Very good reviews!! Which one of the 3 receivers gives a more immersive experience for movies?
Which one actually sounds better for music? The Yamaha, Onkyo or Denon. I've heard that Yamaha normally sounds better 4 music.
Thanks for watching! This is going to depend a lot on the type of sound that you like. As we mentioned, the Yamaha seemed to present more of an airy, detailed sound - while the Denon had more of a laid back and warmer sound. Power is another factor to consider - if you have less efficient speakers that you want to run full range, the Yamaha's higher power output is probably going to be a better choice. Hope this helps! :)
Bought this receiver to go with Klipsch Dolby atmos speakers. It’s been great so far.
That's super great to hear!! That setup represents a great value and it's awesome that Costco can offer it at such a good price. Thanks for watching!
How would you say this compares to the Onkyo TX-NR595? I've read/heard the Onkyo has more of a clear and crisp sound quality compared to a more smooth and warm sound quality with the Denon. Do you find this to be the case? Is sound detail better with one over the other?
Thanks for watching! We think that's a very good description on the differences between those two models. Although we enjoy both of these receivers very much, and we feel they're both very detailed for the price, we did prefer the Denon over the Onkyo. Hope this helps :)
@@TwoGuyzTech I appreciate your response! Of the two, which would you say has the better manual EQ adjustment capabilities?
Good informative video. How does this compare with Yamaha
TSR-700/RX-V6A?
I wish a company would make a simple receiver with no streaming, just Bluetooth and radio, HDMI-only (single output that is fully 2.1 featured), maybe front L-R RCA pre-outs, so by taking out the fluff would get the price down, but include the virtualizations of the higher cost models.
Get an old one. I have an old technics for my vintage stereo that is 5.1 but I use it as stereo. Also have this Denon I'm still figuring out.
We got that receiver @ best buy and works really great with klipsch 5.1.4 speakers!
It only 5.1.2
How do you activate Atmos? Is it the same option Dolby Surround when you select a sound mode?
Thanks for watching! Dolby ATMOS should automatically be activated once you start playing content that has Dolby ATMOS enabled, like a 4K Blu-ray with an ATMOS track. Make sure that your source device is connected over HDMI, and if you're using eARC, make sure the TV has full eARC support. Hope this helps! 😀
@@TwoGuyzTech cant one also use the optical input and rbg or is that too old school
I have been doing this for some time. The video is great. But think of the future, maybe save a little and get the higher command system. This way you have the best. Not knocking Costco, but maybe just save a little more and wait. I wish I did. It's your choice. Happy listening.
Thanks for the kind words! Yep, we agree that you should get the best you can afford - and these receivers represent a great value for customers that don't have enough money to get a higher end unit or doesn't want to spend any more money than this for a good experience. I've enjoyed this hobby for a lot of years and, naturally, I've slowly built up my system - if you wanna check it out, we've made a lot of videos on the stuff that I have in my main theater - but these cheaper units still manage to surprise us with their sound quality. 😀
You said you’re sensitive to certain speakers and receivers, and that they give you ear fatigue. I just got my first system (pioneer VSX-1300, Polk center speaker, and 4 Aim8Two ceiling speakers). After listening to them for a short time, and at listening volumes, my ears feel full, like I have to pop them and there’s a soreness to them. It has made me want to get a different receiver. What have you done to minimize ear fatigue? Any advice would help.
Unfortunately, it's hard to find the root cause of ear fatigue in a system. I'd say that the type of ear fatigue that I experience is very similar to what you described, I'm very sensitive to overly 'bright' and 'shouty' systems. Sometimes the only way to get around this is with trial and error, so you could try replacing the receiver first and seeing if that helps solve the problem. If your AVR also has built-in EQ, you could try toning down the upper frequencies a few dB. Hope this helps!
I currently have the Denon AVR-1508 that does not do audio over HDMI. I think it is 15+ years old. I want to upgrade to a receiver with 7.2 surround, has on screen TV display for menu & control, built in Wi-Fi & Bluetooth & either a back-lit remote or app control. My budget is $1000. Which do y'all recommend?
Cheers!
How do you think this receiver would do with the Klipsch bundle Costco sales ?
This receiver would go great with that set! We even made a review on the Klipsch set, which you can find at this link; ua-cam.com/video/Nk1HpROn-98/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!
@@TwoGuyzTech yes I watched that video as well. I’m planning on adding 2 R-120SW subs with it .

New subscriber. I'm just getting into AV receivers. I'm coming from a logitech z906 complete surround system but looking to upgrade. Mainly for video games on samsung Q90R tv with xbox series x. Which reciever would be the best out of these to choose?
Thanks for watching! We think all of them are great options and it's hard to pick a winner. We would suggest just seeing what's available in your area, according to some polls that we've done most people like the Yamaha the best so there's something to consider. Thank you for the sub and we hope you enjoy your future system! :)
Just got one for $350 from Costco! I blew up my Onkyo Rz810 by running it too loud over the weekend and need a replacement
Oh no!! Hopefully this one holds up then! Thanks for watching! 😀
New to the home theater space. How would you say the s-750h compares to the more expensive mid-level x-1600h?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we haven't had a chance to review the X1600H, so we can't really speak for the similarities and differences between it and the S750H, but it does look like the X1600H provides a little more power for the speakers. In the end, the best way to decide is to see if you can listen to both and decide if the higher price of the X1600H is worth it to you! Hope this helps! :)
@@TwoGuyzTech Thanks!
Great upload as i am picking this up today, im trying to fine clarification though... does only the 8k port on this receiver pass 4k 120hz? i have both PS5 and XSX and i want to be able to use both with my Sony X900H since one of that TV's HDMI 2.1 ports is also EARC
As we mentioned in the video, the AVR-S750H only has HDMI 2.0b, so it can only pass 4K 60Hz, the only way to make it work with the PS5 or XBX is to use eARC directly through the TV without passing any video through the AVR. That's how we set ours up
Do you guys consider klipsch Rp 8000f to be considered a harsh sounding speaker? Thanks
Thanks for watching! I've never heard them personally, but they do seem to get good reviews. In the end, it's all about what you like and what sounds good to you! 😀
So........the company that owns Denon also owns/owned pioneer? They look very similar and I love my pioneer VSX-519V but it's old and only capable of 5.2 Dolby digital. I have an elite pioneer center channel and pioneer 100 watt 10" subwoofer with JVC left, right and rear surrounds that sound amazing for what they are at their price point.
I'm just wondering if Denon is now also Pioneer and I will be as happy with Denon as I am with pioneer.
I'd really like a Mareantz 9.2 AVR but don't know if I want to justify the cost.
Sound United owns Denon, Polk Audio and Onkyo - it now owns Pioneer, which was previously owned by a Chinese equity firm.
Thank you both for watching! It all depends on the sound that you like, but we would imagine that you'll be as happy with a similarly priced Denon as you are with your current Pioneer. 👍
will infinity primus 300 tower speaker match as front L&R speakers?
So, Im not sure what Im doing, but I seem to have ended up with 2 polk audio polk rt2000i towers, a pair of RTi10s, a CSi3, a CSi40, a PSW202, a couple M20 blacks, and a pair of f/xi3s... for about $200.... Now i need to find a receiver... and figure out where the hell to set it all up at....
Thanks for watching - if you're looking at options around this $500 mark, we feel that the Onkyo TX-NR6050 is your best bet right now - check out our review here; ua-cam.com/video/eZkyuy97-Qo/v-deo.html Hope this helps :)
@@TwoGuyzTech what sucks about that is thats more than I currently have in my bank account lol, it might be cheaper do find someone to go through my denon avr-2313ci thats got a "sometimes I work, sometimes I don't" issue.
I just got the denon and I love it!
Can this receiver play zone 2 speakers and use the subwoofer at the same time?
Would this pair with the Klipsch theater package at Costco for $900
The Klipsch speakers are very efficient so the Denon should drive them fine, I haven't heard the Klipsch system they sell so I cant vouch for the sound quality. The great thing about Costco is the 90 day return policy so you could give them a try and see how you like them. Thanks for watching!
I’m curious about this as well!
I can confirm. The klipsch setup that Costco is selling works awesome with this receiver. I have a 7.2 setup. I don’t have the 625FA Tower Speakers from Costco. I bought all my klipsch speakers at Best Buy during a sell they had 8 months ago. My speakers are r620f, r-52c, r-51m, insignia indoor speakers as atmos and 2 r-12sw subs. Works awesome!!!

We absolutely agree!! Thanks for watching!
Help! I just bought this at Costco. Audio breaks every second and something on front blinks that says PCM. I just have the TV connected.
Just return it and get a new one
Thanks for watching! We're sorry you're having problems, that's never fun. Sounds like a bad HDMI connection so either try a different cable, source device, or get the receiver exchanged/returned if possible. Hope this helps you out.
Also double check your speaker wires. I replaced mine with high quality wires and cracking/breaking and PCM protective mode went away!
Can you recommend and good AV units that support 120hz, to allow me to get full benefits of the PS5 and an LG C1 ?
Thanks for watching! Not currently. New AVRs are coming out that seem to have worked out a lot of the HDMI 2.1 issues of older models, but we won't know for sure until they're actually out.
Isn't it a good option to enjoy all the benefits using the EARC?
Yesterday we just went to our local Costco stoor and bought a Denon AVR-S760H. Can you tell me what the difference is between the S750 and S760. I would assume that the full pallet we got the box from were all the same S760 models. I went to Denon and they don't even have that nomenclature listed. But the S750 they did list. Many thanks TwoGuysz
Thanks for watching! We just did a review on the S760H which you can find here; ua-cam.com/video/LEYe8vU08U8/v-deo.html
The difference is 4k/120hz pass through & HDMI 2.1 on the 760
Has the Yamaha receiver had the firmware update so it’s a 4k @ 120?
Does dolby atmos work on 7.2 or just 5.2?
Can you also just run two front channels for music?
Planning to grab one this week, seems like one of the best price and quality range and they partners with polk, marantz, so can't go wrong with that!
Thanks for watching! You can only use DOLBY ATMOS in a 5 surround channel configuration so only a 5.2. You could also just run two front channels for music and it would work fine. You get a lot for the money! 😀
@@TwoGuyzTech ok got it, bought the Dolby Atmos speaker set from Costco which is 5.1 and fires up 2 speakers to the ceiling which is on sale right now and trying to work out how is the best way to get full experience with dolby atmos for movie experience 🤔 thanks!
@@marksabota4056 I think that one is the equivalent of 7.1, I'm not sure since those two firing up speakers need their own power.
Only reason I keep my good old Harman Kardon AVR2600 is because its hard to get close to a newer unit that does upscaling from other sources to HDMI in a decent price range :-/ We have some older consoles and they work well on my old amp :-) but eventually I'll have to upgrade >_
Please let me know how the center channel sound was increased. I got this receiver last week, working on the setup.
Speaker setup, manual setup, speaker levels
They look so complicated . I'll keep my Sansui 771 from 1976 .
The budget Onkyo is on sale at costco until Aug 25th. With the Onkyo being $50 cheaper is the Denon still the way to go?
I personally would still get the Denon :)
@@TwoGuyzTech thank you for the quick reply. I'm going to order it tonight.
And luck had it I found this video last week, on April 26!!!!
Awh man, that's too bad!! Keep watching out for sales, Costco discounts these AVRs quite a lot if you haven't bought one already. Good luck and thank you very much for watching :)
How would it drive Polk monitor 60 i paid less $100 per 10yrs ago
The Polk Monitor 60s have a sensitivity of 90dB @ 1w/2.83v from 1 meter away, meaning they're reasonably efficient speakers that are easy to drive, so the Denon should have no problem powering these speakers, so long as you're not trying to run them in a massive room or outdoor setting. Hope this helps and thanks for watching! :)
A question for the people that have this receiver. When I am watching a show or movie with a Chromecast with google TV connected to the receiver, every once in a while, the receiver acts as if I just changed inputs. The sound turns off for about 3 seconds and the video for about 5 seconds. The show continues in the background and comes back up. I have tried to find answers on Reddit, but nothing that will help fix it. The only thing I can find is a HDCP communication issue. Anyone have any ideas?
Appreciate the review 🙏🏼
Our pleasure!! We appreciate your support! 😀
@@TwoGuyzTech hopefully we see a video where this vs the onkyo amp
Ey guys, do you know if it is gonna be available to buy it online?
Thanks for watching! The AVR-S750H is currently listed and available on Costco's website.
@@TwoGuyzTech thanks, I was wondering about the s760h, my fault
Excellent vid
Thank you very much! We appreciate it :)
Thanks for the review
Thanks for watching!
Great Review
Thanks for watching!!
The salesman says never use HDMI to conduct Signal from sat rrceiver to avr since amper on the LNB and sat rec. iş harmful for your avr mainboard put sat. Cable to your TV and use arc HDMI of tv port

Cables for audio signal
if itistrue 5 HDMI ports on a vr. Used what are for
Thanks for watching! It is absolutely safe to connect the HDMI coming out of your HD satellite recorder box to one of the HDMI inputs on your AV receiver. Do NOT connect the coaxial line running from the dish into the coaxial FM jack on the AVR, as this could damage it.
You don't need a Costco membership to order from them. You just have to pay a small fee.👍🏻
Good to know! Thanks for watching :)

No problem and cool review btw.I run an Integra DTR 50.3 but am looking for a backup receiver for those just in case moments.
@@Guiltless765 Integra makes some great stuff, been running a DTC-9.8 in our theater for the past 12 years now. Hope the Denon works out for you man!! :)
Yea... Checked four Costcos. None available. Not available online. I get tired of Costco for this very reason. I pay money to shop there, they move everything around, and half of the time don't have anything in stock.
Great review..I always run room correction..but then tweak it as you suggest. For me the back surrounds are never set loud enough I have to strain to hear them..."are those things on?"
Thanks for watching! Yep it's very important to tweak your system exactly to your liking. In the end it's all about enjoying the way your system sounds! 😀
You say it’s compatible with Apple Music, but it doesn’t display album art ?
Hi; is it possible to get the Denton in multi voltage?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we're not sure if Denon offers a multi-voltage version of this receiver. The S750H as it's sold in the United States is designed to run on 110/120VAC 60Hz, but they might have an equivalent model designed to be used in 220/240VAC countries. We would suggest contacting Denon support to see if they offer a similar model for your region. Hope this helps!!
I bought mine in store just this past weekend.
Great to hear - we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!! Thank you for watching! 😀
What part of the country? Don’t see them in Washington.
@@thomasbechard I’m in Louisville Ky
does thi ssupport dts hd master audio 5.1 or not?
how would this receiver compare to my older Yamaha TSR 7810 from Costco?
We have no experience with the TSR 7810 so there's no way to know for sure unless your able to compare then side by side :)
Well does this one sync with bose qc35 or equivalent headphones. that was the problem with my Yamaha. I could not watch movies wearing the headphones because the sync was off.
Still not as good of a deal as the Onkyo TX-NR686 I got for $250 at Best Buy on a black Friday sale.
No matter what I do, I can't get the Yamaha to output Atmos. So frustrating. Going to return it
U are not going to get atmos through xbox on Netflix or Disney plus or vudu the app from ur tv then u will see atmos
Can the surround channels be used to bi amp? I cant find anything about that.
No you can't.
