Does it support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X?

Yes. It decodes both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, and 360 Spatial Sound Mapping can add virtual height channels on top of a standard layout.

How many 8K HDMI inputs does it have?

Two of its HDMI inputs pass 8K and 4K at 120Hz. The rest handle 4K at 60Hz, so plan console and PC connections around those two ports.

Yes. It is a 7.2-channel receiver, so a 5.1 layout works, and the spatial mapping feature is designed to widen the sound from fewer speakers.

Yes. It has Chromecast built in, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, so you can cast or stream directly.

Yes. The 8K and 4K/120 passthrough plus auto game mode make it a good fit, as long as you connect the console to one of the two high-bandwidth ports.

The receiver, a calibration microphone, a remote, batteries and a basic antenna setup for wireless. Speaker wire and HDMI cables are not included.
