What customers say about "Key Specs"
Denon AVR-S730H 7.2 Channel AV Receiver with Built-in HEOS wireless technology
- At full blast, I was thoroughly convinced that I was inside a theatre. I could only imagine the effect with 7.2 channel. Definitely worth the investment.
- The Denon 1155w is a strong 7.2 channel receiver for our family.
- ARC channel works flawlessly and the sound quality at this price point is nothing less than stunning.
- Volume levels seem to be extremely low when using HDMI inputs considering it's supposed to be 165 watts per channel.
- This is rated for 165 vs 140 watts per channel, but it didn't sound like nearly the power, even driving Klipsch speakers.

- Clean sound, Plenty of power per channel, Multichannel mode works great for home theater and stereo mode provides great sound for my audio collection.
- Adequate watts per channel. Nice sleek design.
- Plenty of power sent through 7 channels with 2 sub outputs. The receiver is very customizable and easy to use.
- The 7.2 channel makes my ceiling speakers come to life! And the centre channel adds even more. Excellent product.
- With 7.2 channels there are multiple multiple configurations for any room or multiple rooms.
