  • Our take on the Denon AVR-A1H

    The Denon AVR-A1H is Denon's flagship 15.4-channel AV receiver, built for large home theaters with up to 15 speakers and four subwoofers. It delivers 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms from a Class AB amplifier and passes HDMI 2.1 with 8K, Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and VRR on multiple inputs. Its four independent subwoofer outputs and full multi-zone support set it apart from cheaper 9- and 11-channel receivers, which top out at two sub outs and fewer zones. It suits dedicated theater rooms and custom installs; reviewers praise its power and channel count but note its size, heat and complexity for everyday living rooms.

    Questions and answers

    How many channels and subwoofers does the AVR-A1H support?
    It has 15 amplified channels and four independent subwoofer outputs, enough for a 9.4.6-style theater. That is more sub outs than most 11-channel receivers offer.
    Does it support 8K and HDMI 2.1 gaming features?
    Yes. It passes HDMI 2.1 with 8K, VRR, Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and HLG, and supports HDCP 2.3. It does not upscale lower-resolution video to 8K.
    Is the AVR-A1H good for multi-zone audio?
    Yes. It supports multiple zones with HEOS, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect and TuneIn, plus two 12V triggers for external control. Plan speaker wiring for each zone before installation.
    How much space does it need?
    It is about 17.1 inches wide, 10.2 inches tall and 19.6 inches deep, so it needs a deep rack or cabinet. Leave room above and behind it because it runs warm.
    What is in the box?
    You get the receiver, a remote, setup microphone and antennas for wireless features. Speaker wire, HDMI cables and rack hardware are not included.
    Should I buy it over an 11-channel receiver?
    Choose it if you need 13 or more channels, four sub outs or extensive multi-zone control. An 11-channel model is smaller and simpler for typical 7.2.4 rooms.

    At Best Buy, for $7,199.00, as of our latest check.
