Whether you are a movie enthusiast or a music audiophile, there is good news for you if you are out in the market looking for a receiver. Just yesterday we covered the Denon AVR-S570BT which is an 8K capable 5.2 channel AVR that"s selling for its lowest price in a long time. Check it out in this dedicated piece where you will find a purchase link as well as the details of the product.
While that covers home theater, those looking for a high fidelity music system can check out the Onkyo TX-8470 as it is currently a great deal at just $527 (purchase link under the specs table down below).
Onkyo highlights its high-current Class G amplifier and audio-grade components like custom transformers and low impedance filter capacitors that promise to deliver "unparalleled dynamism and lifelike sound reproduction, ensuring natural note transitions so nuances in attack, decay, sustain, and release are voiced with conviction."
For those not familiar, Class G uses multi-stage power supplies to improve efficiency over something like Class AB, while still maintaining great fidelity.
In terms of features, vinyl lovers will likely appreciate the dedicated phono stage with isolated circuitry for both MM and MC cartridges, and at the same time, streaming is also fully integrated with support for Roon, Tidal, Deezer, and other platforms, which means you will have access to digital high-resolution audio too.
