A couple of friends of mine are looking to upgrade from their current AVR's to 7.x.6 Atmos (and DTS:X) AVR set-ups. Primarily they are movie lovers but are also interested in the idea of listening to Atmos music. And as I'm pretty lost when it comes to the capabilities of modern AVR's I thought I'd ask here.
Currently both of them have TV's with eARC. Both have 4K UHD disc players (one has an OPPO UDP-203, the other has a Sony UBPX800M2), both store their movie bck-ups on NAS's, all their gear is hardwired network connected.
Both of them wanted to know (and I must admit I do too), are there any 'affordable' AVR's that can access and play multi-channel music via it's network connection (ie: without the need for another device)?
