Hello All,
Finally made the 4K display purchase. So was looking for some advice on a Ultra BD Player and a HDR capable receiver (I currently have a Yamaha that apparently does have 4K pass-through, but wouldn't be HDR capable and since I have had it for several years probably not software updatable).
Costco seems to have a pretty good temp price (which won't last long) on the Samsung UBD--KM85C for $199. That seems like a steal, but I do preferably prefer to have a SACD capable player, which I guess limits me to Sony or Oppo. I suppose it's not total essential though since I have a PS3 and PS4 which are SACD capable, but I like to future proof as much as I can.
For the receiver I was looking at the Onkyo TX-NR656 for about $400. I like the Onkyos because they have a ridiculous amount of HDMI inputs and a dedicated Phono input. It seems to have DTS:X and Atmos capability. Also, support for HDR10 and Dolby Vision (via an upcoming firmware update).
Can anyone confirm or make recommendations?
Thanks,
Will
