Denon AVC-X8500H AV receiver review

Yes, as it turns out. While you can divert some of those powered channels to a second or third stereo zone, the real magic is what they can do in your cinema. Object-based audio formats map sound into your room, making the most of however many speakers you have. The more the merrier.
