digitalhome Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 What DAC's are in these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerav Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Amazing as although not many people even use Atmos it brings the price of these great AVR's that don't have it right down. Edited August 2, 2017 by Bretho72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for a 1 box solution to do both HT and stereo (up to 50% of time), the 710 is perfect for it. Has heaps of power for speakers, toroidal power supply. ARC is superb. If I did not have a DAC prior, could have easily lived with it for 2 channel. But, if you are looking for more stereo use, then a stereo DAC would outperform it. My Audiolab 8200cdq beats the 710 but was close to the price of the 710. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Snoopy cirrus logic dac CS42528 24bits 192kHz ; the new 720 has 32bit akm's Of course it depends on the analog stage quality - that's more important imho . Other differences are no more toroidal power supply with the 720 [ likely the class d extra channels ] and more processing power ; quad core ..

Also, 710 was top of range then. 720 now mid model, 1120 now top with toroidal power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerav Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 As is usually the case, one pops up just after you buy a new one but I was after Atmos etc so don't feel too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
