Okay Experienced Home theater people...
I'm looking for a economical 2016 or newer model that Decodes all the surround formats . .. Atmos NOT Needed
Or DTS X...
ALL OTHER FORMS OF DTS YES...
DOLBY TRUE HD YES..
My main concern is to have 2.2 HDMI and more than a hundred watts per Channel... Reliable Watts not fake. .. hyped up BS. ...
Some of the new Bluetooth capabilities are kind of cool too...
But not as important...
I'm looking at Denon , Pioneer, and maybe Yamaha. ...
Onkyo seems to have a lot of repair issues from what I'm looking at and Marantz seems too expensive but I am open to ideas from the people with more knowledge than I... .
I have a Pioneer Elite that is pre Dolby Atmos DTS X that I absolutely love but I don't have the money to be to getting another one of them. .
This one is for my secondary living room surround sound set up for 5.2 that replace my 120 watt per channel 7.1 Sony STR DA2000ES that was getting very anemic with power and broke and quit working...
So I'm kind of anti Sony...
But open to ideas....
I don't want to spend anymore than $400 out the door Maximum...
I don't need Pandora Netflix and all that extra stuff because I do not have cable or satellite nor will I ever have it....
It would be neat to be able to screencast from cellphone..but not necessary
Thanks for your help in advance!
