In similar vein to the Best 4K TV's for Scorpio/PS4 Pro thread, I'm starting to look into updating my media center equipment to be able to experience the glory that is 4K HDR. I didn't want to pollute the other thread, as audio will have their own nuances.
What should one look for in an AVR upgrade? I know there are multiple audio paths to look for support, ranging from Dolby ATMOS to DTS-X. Are they various video formats to look into as well?
My current AVR is a Denon X3000 with a 7.1 speaker setup in the rec-room. The front speakers are mounted on stands around 3.25 - 4.5 feet off the ground. The side and rear speakers are mounted at the top of the of the wall near the ceiling and angled downward., a little above 7 feet.
I don't think I'd change the current speakers, but from a quick glance at the newer setups it seems as if my current setup might fit close enough to Dolby ATMOS to get away with it.
Thoughts?
