- Is this receiver worth buying?
- It is worth it if you have older sources with optical or coaxial digital outputs and want 7.1 sound cheaply. It is not a good fit if you need HDMI switching or modern surround formats.
- Does it have HDMI inputs?
- No. The DTR-7.1 predates HDMI, so video must go straight to the TV and audio to the receiver over optical, coaxial or analog connections.
- How much power does it put out?
- Integra rates it at 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms in stereo, with 100W each to the front, center and rear channels in surround.
- What comes in the box?
- The listing includes the factory RC-418M remote, an FM antenna, speaker wire and batteries.
- Can it handle Dolby Atmos or DTS:X?
- No. It is a 7.1-channel receiver built around older surround formats, so height-channel formats like Atmos and DTS:X are not supported.
- When is it cheapest?
- Used and refurbished receivers of this age tend to sell lowest in January and February, after the holiday buying season, and when listings sit unsold for a while.
- What do buyers say about the Integra DTR-7.1 THX Select 7.1-Channel A/V Receiver?
- Buyers like: Knowledgeable, professional and helpful staff; Honest and fair treatment; Quality vintage electronics with a warranty. Common complaints: One customer had a slight issue with some hardware, which the shop made right.
