Denon AVR-S540BT

Also, if you're looking at getting a receiver to power a smaller system without lots of bells and whistles, but you want good quality amplification at...

It's a really good app and I think that it would work really well for you guys if you chose to get this receiver. Just eliminates having a remote. Nob...

It's a good little unit, A little clicky things when you turn the knobs. It's a good unit.

This AVR right here will be solid for years to come unless you want to go crazy with speakers, I wouldn’t.

UPDATE: I now have two DENON receivers one more powerful version in my living room and a less powerful Denon in my bedroom. The DENON is a fine home theater system for all the reasons I state below. My PROBLEM with all Denon receivers is they are a TOTAL BEAST to set up manually. You can connect all...

this is totally audiophile level. You have nice speakers all around, And I think I'm seeing a Denon AVR? You don't need $130k science fiction looking speakers designed in some underground lab to be considered an audiophile lol. In the world that 99% of people listen to music on their cheap earbuds and phones, Anyone who spends even around $600-700 for their music listening is considered an audiophile in my book.

I had this receiver for 6 months when it failed to work. I called Denon to see what should be done, they said it was still under warranty and to send it to one of the Denon Service Centers. So I downloaded the list of service centers and sent it to the only one in my state. After 5 days I was called...

Then I replaced the front speakers, then the surrounds, then bought a new receiver and finally upgraded the sub. Yamaha RX-V385, Sony STR-DH590 and Denon S540bt are three options. The Yamaha and Sony are $280 and the Denon is $300. For speakers you can go with a pair of Polks like the T15, Micca RB42x, Klipsch R-15M or you can even look on Craigslist and FB Marketplace for higher quality speakers in great condition.

I bought this model to replace a Sony receiver that was damaged by a nearby lightning strike and created a power surge that fried it and my cable TV box. This was despite the components being "protected' by an expensive surge protector/uninterruptable power supply. (Their warranty paid for the repla...

The computer feeds into the Denon AVR with HDMI and acts as a partial pre/pro. Left and Right Channels are fed to the M6si with HT bypass, but the Denon still does amplification for the remaining speakers for now. The sound is just ... OMG. I can't say I have the vocabulary some others have to describe it, but its just so clear.
