Marantz SR5014 vs Denon AVR-X2600H

Denon AVR-X2600H review

Thanks to the presence of digital high-current power amplifiers on all channels, the AVR-X2600H provides high performance at 95 watts per channel (8 ohms). What’s more, holding Denon AVR-X2600H vs Marantz SR5014 comparison I found out that channels 7.2 can be assigned in configuration 5.2.2 for Dolby Atmos and DTS: X formats, but for those who do not have additional high-rise speakers, there is a built-in DTS Virtual: X that mixes the DTS soundtracks and creates a sense of high-pitch effects. While Bluetooth and Apple AirPlay 2 stream local files from a smartphone, tablet, or computer, the HEOS integrated multi-room platform also offers subscribers direct access to the Spotify, Tidal, Amazon, Deezer, or TuneIn music catalog using a mobile app.

Marantz SR5014 review

With the power output of 100 watts per channel at 8 ohms this unit also boasts the presence of Dolby Atmos (up to 5.1.2-channel configuration) and DTS:X (from 2.1.2 to 5.1.2). The speakers connected to the Marantz SR5014 receiver have been calibrated to the Audyssey MultEQ XT system. From the Audyssey package, Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume technologies are also present. The first one corrects the frequency response, tonal balance and guarantees sound with full bass even at low levels, and the second evens out jumps in the volume level in real time.
