Upgrade from Onkyo 674

lionmqj

Hi, I am considering upgrading my Onkyo 674 AV receiver. I have a Kef 2005.1 speaker setup using a monitor audio bronze for the center channel.
I have a Sony 65x93 and I use the Netflix app on that and optical out for sound. Same for Sky.
I also have a Blu Ray player which I plan to upgrade to a UHD player in the future when prices are a little better, though I don’t use it much anyway.

I know the Onkyo was mid range in its day and was about €800. I could not afford to spend that now.

What would you recommend? Could I upgrade to better sound in 2019 for less than I paid in 2007? I don’t need that much in the way of features. I just would like the best sound I can possibly afford.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

The Denon AVRX2500 would be a good option to look at https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-203414-denon-avrx2500h-atmos-av-receiver.aspx

Tech has come on a fair bit in the last few years so you will probably find it is better featured than your 12 year old onkyo.  Certainly the Denon will feature Dolby Atmos which will not have been on the Onkyo
