It looks like my trusty Denon AVR-2310CI may have died tonight. I can sometimes get audio, but video isn't displaying. I suspect the HDMI board went bad but I am going to try a processor reset and a few other things to see if I can resurrect it.
In the event that I can't resurrect it, I am looking for a replacement. Here are my requirements:
1. Must be 4k ready (up to at least 60 Hz if possible).
2. Must support 7.2 sound.
3. Must be networkable.
4. Must support Audyssey or another form of audio optimization.
5. Must be carried by Amazon - while I may fudge a bit on some requirements, I won't fudge on this one as I have hundreds of dollars in rewards to use and I get additional rewards from buying from them.
6. Budget - I'd prefer to keep it under $600 but could go to $800 if the new features can be justified.
I have yet to do any research, but last year's Denon AVR-X3000 for $600 at Amazon looks good at first glance. The newer updated model is the X3100 and it is $1000, but I don't think I can justify the difference.
Thoughts/recommendations?
