Need Help in finding the right AVR


newbie-nj

Recommended Posts

Klipsch community,

 

I just ordered R-820F 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos home theater system for my finished basement and this has

 

- 2 R-820F

- 1 R-34C

- 1 Pair of R-51M

- 1 Pair of R-41SA

- 1 Pair of R-120SW

 

I am looking for a decent AVR that suits my system. I am running little tight on my budget.

 

Also, need help on how to setup my home theater system - any documentation or links will be really helpful.

 

Thanks,

Anil

Welcome to the Klipsch forums. 

 

If you are going new with a warranty try Accessories For Less.  Many of us here have bought things from them and got reliable electronics at greatly reduced prices.

It looks to me like you need a 7.2 receiver that supports 2 Atmos modules.  You can save money if you buy exactly what you need without buying extra channels you don't need.

 

The other thing I would suggest is to buy last year's model.  It's usually the same as this year's model without this year's latest and greatest feature which most people don't need.

 

You are safe with Yamaha Adventage line, Pioneer Marantz and Denon.

The Marantz 6012 would be outstanding if you could stretch the budget to $700.

I have the Marantz 6011 9.2 AVR and I can recommend it highly if you can find it used.

@baron167

Other than Dolby, I am looking for futures like Ultra 4k HD

 

@wvu80

I found this Onkyo TX-NR777 THX Certified 7.2 channel -which is of $328 in amazon, is Onkyo worth with Klipsch sound systems ?
