Review: The Denon AVR-S970H is a Beast! - I have for some time felt my Sony AV receiver just wasn't up to par on the sound. It also didn't have a phono input for my vintage 1980's Dual turntable I had been wanting to rehab, so I made the decision to update/upgrade receivers. Never having owned any Denon product I went strictly by online reviews and features. I am not disappointed! This receiver has sufficient power to rattle your windows, or reproduce the softest music you might desire. The remote control is used for the setup, which is a menu-driven app within the receiver itself, and even has little videos for the total newbie who doesn't kow how to hook up speakers. There is also an app for your smartphone that doubles as an extra remote control. I hooked this receiver up to my 7.1 speaker array which includes DCM TP260-CH pair as the front (and main 2 channel) speakers. I am an old DCM nut from the early 80's; I love my old Time Windows and the newer DCMs have video shielding, so I updated a few years back. My Dual turntable now has been refurbished, so I felt ready to get a new receiver and give it a spin. Prime Delivery could not be fast enough to ease my anticipation. And this new Denon rocks! I never heard vinyl records sound so good! This Denon unit not only SOUNDS superb; the video is breathtaking as well on a LG G1 4K largescreen TV. Watching 4K Top Gun: Maverick exceeded any experience I could possibly have watching in a theater. Whatever equipment you currently have, I believe the Denon AVR-S970H will improve your experience whether you are watching movies or listening to your favorite tunes. I am not a video game player, so I cannot critique the processors for that; however, I would be shocked if the Denon did not deliver top notch gaming performance as well. Everything is well thought out from the appearance to the setup to the controls. Ample HDMI connections (see back panel pic) and eARC functionality make it as versatile as any unit can be for home theater. I especially like the flexibilty of assignable speaker connections for surround versus zone 2 (a second room) and 8K processing (even though I have no 8K TV). My ONLY criticism is that there are no tape deck connections as Denon has on some of their less expensive stereo amplifiers. When I wrote them about this on their website, their answer was that cassette tsape decks are not coming back like vinyl is. (Excuse me?!) I guess Denon thinks one cannot be both a surround sound home theater buff and an analog music buff at the same time. The Denon AVR-S970H is a 90 W/channel beast of a performer that won't let you down; it is most worthy of your consideration and should be a dependable unit for years to come. Hope this helps!
Review: Great Receiver Value - I traded up to a Denon AVR-S970H from an Onkyo TX-NR636 that was slowly dying. They have mostly the same power rating and features. The setup was fairly straightforward with a few little quirks that, until you understand the operating logic, are common when you change brands. This receiver is advertised as a 7.2 channel system. It also advertises a powered Zone 2 output. However, you can't have both at the same time. The powered Zone 2 outputs use re-assigned Back speaker connections and the system then becomes a 5.2 system. Since a 5.1 and powered Zone 2 is what I already have, this fit my needs exactly. If you want a 7.2 channel with powered Zone 2, this receiver can't do that. Most of the new 7.2 systems seem to have a separate pre-amp Zone 2 output, which requires either an additional external amplifier or powered speakers to drive the Zone 2 sound. The use of their HEOS app to access on-line music streaming is definitely different, but seems to work ok. The additional Denon Remote app operates the receiver via Wi-Fi, which also works ok. Nothing fancy, though. The Bluetooth transmitter isn't available for wireless headset use when either the MAIN Zone or ZONE2 are sourced by HEOS, which prevents you from streaming on-line music from the receiver. TV Audio, Blue Ray, USB, CDs, etc. can all still be Bluetooth'd out, just not a HEOS source. I was stumped about this issue and called tech support. They answered the phone immediately and quickly answered my question. Not the answer I wanted, but that's how it works. If your TV or Blue Ray player can stream Pandora, Spotify, etc. app, you can feed that to the receiver and Bluetooth it out to headsets, so there is a work-around. The sound quality is very good and is marginally better than my old Onkyo. The Denon has some audio tuning features not on the Onkyo (Dynamic EQ, Dynamic volume, MP3 Rendering, and others). I have a remote reading temperature sensor in my stereo cabinet. The cabinet with an Onkyo always ran about 90-92dF. This is fairly hot and can impact long term reliability. To limit that high temperature, I had added 4 little computer fans to help ventilate the cabinet. So far, the highest temperature I've seen the Denon run is 80dF, a big difference for the same sound volume. Not sure why that is, but I like the result. I can probably remove the cooling fans. The one thing I wish the Denon had is a programmable TV power button on the remote. This missing feature forces me to use a 2nd remote every time I turn the system on. Overall, I would definitely recommend this receiver to anyone looking to buy in this price range.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good receiver
*by K***R on May 11, 2026*

Great receiver. I bought it to hook up my Klipsch reference speaker system too and use, primarily for home theater. Sounds great with music on all platforms. Has Bluetooth and network antennas. No real user manual but the onscreen is very user friendly and easy to understand. The hook up is step by step. Little more expensive than the Yamaha that could've been included with the speaker system but, you get more wattage, 90 per channel vs 75.
