CHASLS2 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 What AVR seems to be good these days that will pass 4k and have pre outs for around $1000? I have a Pioneer Elite SC61 that i use now. Seems not many of the cheaper AVR's have pre outs like they did a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles, If you have been happy with Pioneer, then look at this. https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/pionsclx801/pioneer-elite-sc-lx801-9.2-ch-x-140-watts-networking-a/v-receiver/1.html#!specifications Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The Marantz SR6011 9.2 is last year's model and is still shipping. It's a good value because the price a couple of months ago was $1400 and is now selling for $1000. It has good power, Atmos, sounds good and has pre-outs. I own this AVR. https://www.amazon.com/Marantz-SR-6011-Audio-Component-Receiver/dp/B01K1Z6M1O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506863209&sr=8-1&keywords=marantz+sr6011 The Denon AVRX3400 H 7.2 also has pre-outs for $1000. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072Z9ZGSZ?psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that works, but i guess one cable goes into the TV and one to the input on my AVR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Oppo has a dedicated HDMI out for audio only. I have a Denon AVR 4200 that is supposed to have UHD passthru. I wasn't getting the message on my tv that is was passing thru, so I wired it like this. Now I can see the UHD picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerwoodKhorns Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I was worried about this at one time. I am still using a non-hdmi receiver. The TV is the center-piece. Blue ray goes through the TV or from dedicated 7.1 outputs to the receiver. No need for disposable receivers. Need a new one for HDMI, then 3d, then atmos, now 4K. You never win if you are playing another man's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The History Kid Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 At $1200 you could get separates. Hell, I'm sure even at $1000 you could get separates. You may want to open up your options a bit more. http://emotiva.com/product/mc-700/ http://emotiva.com/product/a-800/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multiple times with nothing but good service and prices. You could even drive over to Apopka and pick up if you like. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a good cruise in the Vette. I guess going highway 50 to Clermont would be the best route for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHASLS2 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 I bought my Vette over in Clermont last March. 2 hour drive to the dealer. They have a Denon X3300W for only $499. It also has pre outs. I could always move the older AVR to my non 4k tv in the living room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
