Hi, i'm looking to change my NR717 (my 2nd Onkyo after a NR609) to either the NR686 wich is the least expensive on my list (+-370euro )
or denon models x2600(500e)/x3500(650e) eventually a RZ730 (+-700e)
Reason of change :
need 4K pass through & HDR
mostly used on nvidia shield for netflix/prime/iptv that all propose 4K HDR content.
TV is a LG Oled55E8
Beamer Benq W2000
5.0 setup Q Accoustics
usage 90%HC
I'm pretty happy with the NR717, i had to get it repaired once due to a switch that went bad (30e) and didn't have the famous hdmi board problems.
Essential features i need :
-"Late night" function, and as i understand Denon does not have an equivalent. There is a night mode but that only cuts off the Sub, correct me if i'm wrong.
I use this function every time its supported & when the kids are sleeping ...
-4K HDR pass through
NR686 worries : well the AccuEQ sounds a bit crappy and i'm afraid of being disappointed.
Would the NR686 be the good choice ? should i look for a RZ730 instead ? Or a Denon with XT32
Open to any suggestions and recommandations.
Thanks
Edit: also looking at the NR696 priced at 520e
