It's been awhile since I last posted here! I used to have a rather good home cinema configuration, but as time progressed and priorities change, I've replaced failing components with lesser versions.
I currently have a new Panasonic 65" 4K HDR panel, a Denon AVR-1912 and a set of Elac surround sound speakers. In all honesty, I only use the front 3 speakers and the sub. I rarely turn the volume up past -25dB. I do have an XBox Series X on order and the AVR-1912 does not support 4K pass-through, hence why I'm looking to replace my AV receiver.
The AVR-X1600H has 4K pass-through, Dolby Atmos and 6 HDMI sockets. The RX-V4a offers 8K pass-through (future proofing), some gaming related features and 4 HDMI sockets. I only need 3 HDMI inputs, so this isn't much of an issue.
Based on my requirements, which would you recommend?
