If you are looking for AV Receivers (AVRs) with features like Dolby Atmos/Vision, and more, then you still have time to grab a couple of Onkyo AVRs which are at their lowest prices ever (purchase link under the specs table down below).
The deals are on the 9.2 TX-RZ30 and 11.2 RZ70 models. The 11.2 channel TX-RZ70 is configured as 7.2.4 compared to 7.2.2 on the RZ30. As such it is feature-packed with a lot of good stuff including support for Dolby Atmos, IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Vision, and more. Digital to analog processing and conversions are done by the ESS Sabre DAC inside the RZ70 and the amplifier is based on the popular Class AB topology.
As with many Onkyo AVRs, the RZ70 is Klipsch Optimized and that means it works great if you have some speakers from Klipsch. The technical specifications and key features of the Onkyo TX-RZ70 are given below:
