That’s a 7.1.2 receiver. I told you they were expensive :D When a receiver is advertised as 9.2 it means 9 amplified channels and 2 passive subwoofer outputs. A receiver that can do 7.1.4 would be designated as 11.2 like this one: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_158AZ5KES/Sony-ES-STR-AZ5000ES.html

Actually, John his receiver DOES process Atmos, just the 5.1.2 variety, which by the way is identical to the Denon receiver you linked as an example.

No! Receivers aren’t meant to drive multiple speakers from a single output, doing so could cause damage. Your receiver is either 5.1.2 or 7.1 . It is not 7.1.2 . They do make 7.1.2 and 7.1.4 receivers but those are ridiculously expensive.
