Denon AVR-X1500H review

7.2 AV receiver with multi-room HEOS system, power 7 x 80 W (8 Ohms), is equipped with many features available in the more expensive models of this company. In addition, the Denon AVR-X1500H also has Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and DTS Virtual:X processors for the latest object-oriented formats that are used to record an increasing number of films on BD. A pleasant surprise in the AV receiver of this cost is the presence of the Audyssey MultEQ XT automatic surround calibration system, which works using the included external microphone.
