HLG surround receiver - Blu-ray Forum

4K fanatic · 02-21-2018, 05:57 AM

Im browsing new receivers but want one supports all of the standing and new formats-10 bit, HDR, Dolby Vision, and HLG codecs. I can’t seem to find any HLG receivers. Can anyone offer advice on a budget—mid level receiver from Denon, Onkyo, or Pioneer? Is there any HLG video content out now or on the horizon? Id like to shell out around $500 or so. 175-200 watts per channel max. I also want one that will be guaranteed to get a hdmi 2.1 firmware update or I can wait till 2.1 is the norm.

Yamaha RX-V583 & RX-A670
Denon AVR-S730H & AVR-S930H
Onkyo TX-NR757 & TX-NR777
Pioneer VSX-932
Sony STR-DH790

HLG is being used by DirecTV. Or random YouTube videos via a Chromecast Ultra.

HDMI 2.1 is not coming out this year and nothing is guaranteed to update to it. You'll have to wait until next year to see if it starts popping up.
