Denon AVR-X3600H vs Yamaha RX-A880

Denon AVR-X3600H review

These models are quite similar. Their stereo power is almost identical: 105/8 and 100/8 W/Ohm respectively. The channel quantity is 9.2 vs 7.2. The Denon AVR-X3600H AV receiver with nine discrete amplifiers on board is capable of decoding DTS:X and Dolby Atmos object-oriented 3D sound formats in the maximum possible 7.2.2-channel configuration or in 7.2.4-channel using an additional stereo power. Available in DTS Virtual:X format and Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization technology that mimics the sound of ceiling speakers in DC systems that are not equipped with specialized speakers. IMAX Enhanced technology is supported with a special version of the DTS codec, which allows you to get the same highest quality sound.

Yamaha RX-A880 review

On the front panel you will find a fairly standard setting: the input knob on the left, the volume control on the right and the row of buttons at the top to choose between functions such as AM and FM radio, change presets and so on. on the. At the bottom there is also a hatch that opens to open the headphone jack, a USB port, an additional port and several other functions. We like that these ports and features are a bit hidden, as this makes for a smoother front view when you may not be using these features anyway.
