[Please advise whether i should buy these?]

I can get the Pioneer VSX-932 7.2 CH Receiver for $472 USD and after reading the reviews it looks like it will  work well with the Klipsch speakers I have bought.

I will also add two Dolby Atmos enabled speakers to complete my set up.
Do you have any advice on the Pioneer receiver?

This conversation usually ends up like the “who makes the best car?” question. There are hundreds of members here with thousands of differing opinions on what brand makes the best receiver.

 

My advise is to get one of the models towards the top of the lineup, but last year’s model where you can likely save around 50% off. The new receivers are like computers and manufacturers try to add new technology, to get consumers to keep upgrading. The truth is that most higher end models will have all the features you will ever need, even if it is a year or two old. Examples of these newer technologies are Atmos, DTS-X and this year’s releases IMAX and with 8k around the corner, you will go broke or insane trying to keep up.

 

Now to my opinion on brands.. I prefer Denon receivers as they seem to check all the boxes and fall in the middle of the price ranges. Marantz owns Dennon and are similar but a little higher quality. My other favorite brand is Pioneer Elite. Yamaha Aventage also has a very loyal following. 

 

Just prepare yourself for the “if you don’t have a dedicated amplifier, you are missing out on 70% of the experience” people. This is an entirely different conversation though.

Hey thanks.I have not decided on a receiver yet but I have a LG 65 OLED C8 TV and watch a lot of bands I like on the Youtube app and the TV has Dolby Atmos so would need to get a receiver that is 7.1 and add a couple of Dolby Atmos enabled speakers to complete the set up.Any suggestions on receivers?

Thanks again.The thing is I have bought an LG OLED C8 and it has Dolby Atmos...I could get a 7.1 receiver and add some Dolby Atmos enabled speakers to complete the set up...how say you?

[Please advise whether i should buy these?]

Hahaha Thanks George.Are you saying that because it's a good price or you think they are good speakers or both?The speakers are quite old now but I don't know whether age is pertinent to them being speakers still of a high quality?

[Please advise whether i should buy these?]

That's in NZD  so that equates to 646 USD
