Only a very poorly design one … le no self protection

Well I will see if the new unit I get next week does the same thing or not. I took a look at the accessories4less site.

https://www.accessories4less.com/ma...0-7.2-ch-x-110-watts-a/v-receiver/1.html

Not sure if this is worth spending an extra $350 on over the one I have though. By how much it weighs it likely contains much better quality components. I would be missing out on the 8k passthrough, however that is not a big deal as I can just run a cable directly to the tv if i need 4k 120hz, which i would literally only ever need if I hook a computer up to it for gaming. It does have YPAO though which ive read is one of the better room correction utilities.

This one looks decent as well. although I don't see it has room correction.

The Denon has XT32 vs just XT for the Marantz. XT32 changed my audio life. YPAO is a child's toy in comparison.

Not sure 8k is worth the money. You’d have to be sitting closer then comfortable to really need it. Besides it will be a while before 8k is affordable. Just MO.

Eblack, the Denon hands-down. Really too bad the Marantz at that price doesn't have XT32.

Just buy a NAD T778 and be done with it.

Cheap as dirt. Yikes!

We seem to have some price creep going on here … $350, $450, $750, and now … a $3000+ NAD … UNLESS Trevor has a source he like to tell us about … smile

Oh BTW, that NAD looks like a really nice receiver ,,. But I’d personally save up for Altitude 32 myself … think you can pick one up for as little as $24,000.00 USD. Oh, you’ll need to budget a few extra dollars for amplification as it’s only a prepro …

aaah what the hell … might as well complete the package by expanding the listen room AND don’t forget some extra speakers and subs …

Justify it by telling your wife how much you saved by avoiding those expensive interconnects smile.

If it were only that easy to just feign ignorance over some cheap inter connects Rrlev.

Onkyo has declared bankruptcy FYI y’all. Saw it on my google feed a few times now. Must be true. I think it is actually.. isn’t this the second time for them or it was a close call last time. ? I can’t remember. Hop fully they continue somehow with product support.

Premier Audio bought them. They're still making receivers and have promised to kick everyone's butt.
