Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Excellent for everything... except FLAC 5.1 stream

Overall, this is an excellent unit, but it fails to do the one thing for which I purchased it: play FLAC audio files encoded in 5.1+ channels over-the-air. My disappointment is with the fact that this high-end receiver is incapable of playing FLAC audio files over DLNA when the file contains more than two audio channels. I bought this receiver specifically so that I could play high-resolution FLAC audio files, in 5.1+ channels, over the network. The product manual mentions support for FLAC files at extreme resolutions, but it doesn't mention any limitation with regard to the number of audio channels. I had the foresight to consult the manual before purchasing this unit and I was really disappointed to learn from the technician that FLAC audio files with more than two channels cannot be played-back over the DLNA interface and that I would instead be required to run a 30-foot HDMI cable under my floor (or connect a USB drive to the device, which is perhaps even less convenient for a library of this size and fluidity. I purchased this unit specifically so that I could leverage the wireless capabilities and avoid running a long cable from the PC to the receiver, or contend with the inconvenience of keeping a USB thumb-drive synchronized with the library on my PC. 5.1+ channel audio is becoming increasingly common, and many albums are being released on CD + BluRay. The 5.1 channel FLAC files in question were ripped from BluRay discs that I have purchased recently. The back of the BluRay jacket states that the audio is in 6-Channel DTS-HD Master format. As a programmer and an audiophile, I am as yet unconvinced that this is a hardware limitation. A Denon support technician confirmed to me that this capability is extremely unlikely to be addressed in a future firmware update. Final takeaway: this is a beautiful receiver, but steer clear if your intention is to play FLAC files with more than 2 channels, particularly over-the-air.

Best Home Theater System

I purchased 2 of these to support home theater style systems in a new home. The features allow all the kids devices to interact with the system and you still have the quality sound expected from Denon.

Best Home Theater System

By DanofWoodstock

I purchased 2 of these to support home theater style systems in a new home. The features allow all the kids devices to interact with the system and you still have the quality sound expected from Denon.

Break the sonic boundaries with the AVR-S710W 7.2 channel A/V receiver which features Dolby Atmos immersive surround decoding, delivering breathtaking surround sound with today's advanced movie soundtracks.

Enjoy a surround sound movie in one room, while others can enjoy stereo sound from a different source in a second room, at the same time.

Color Coded Speaker Terminals
For maximum ease of setup, the AVR-S710W features a horizontal row of premium loudspeaker connection terminals and the color coded connection system includes a set of color coded speaker cable labels that helps ensure correct speaker cable hookup the very first time.

Easy To Use Quick Select Functions
The AVR-S710W's front panel features 4 Quick Select function buttons, so you can quickly choose from the most popular sources and the system remembers your preferred audio settings for each one. The ergonomic remote control also features dedicated Quick Select buttons for additional ease of use.

Stylish Front Panel Design
The elegant front panel features a stylish brushed hairline metalized finish along with dual control knobs for volume control and input selection. The graphical display features clear text as well as easy to understand icons that let you instantly see the source selected, volume level and other important information.
