Looking to upgrade - Blu-ray Forum

Stringer-Bell · 04-11-2021, 07:37 AM

So I have a Pioneer VSX 532 which I purchased about three years ago and am looking to get a receiver which now supports Dolby Atmos/DTS:X audio decoding as my 4K collection has grown quite a bit in the past few years. I kinda wanna keep things below 400 for my budget. Ideally 250-350 range would be great for me. My pioneer receiver had certainly served me well in the past and wouldn’t mind staying with that brand in my future upgrade. Suggestions welcomed, thanks in advance!

I'm stepping back up from a soundbar to a surround sound system myself and have seen multiple people recommend the Sony STR DH790 for the price range you're looking into. I'm teetering on getting it myself as I've set a $500 budget for everything (already found a great deal on speakers last week and am getting a good deal on a sub later this week). Hope this is helpful.

A Pioneer Dolby Atmos/DTS:X receiver is way out of your price rate. With your budget, Sony would be a good choice.
