FOR Clear and detailed; agile and articulate with fluid dynamics
AGAINST Some may prefer a bigger, more muscular sound
Not only is it decked out with all the latest features and technology you’d expect from a modern home cinema amplifier, it also delivers a performance worthy of spending some serious money.
A fluid sense of dynamics
Imagine Denon's £450 AVR-X2400H, but with a bigger, bolder and more confident presentation. That’s basically the gist. The 6400H offers plenty of poise, control and subtlety along with a healthy dose of punch and surround-sound prowess.
It’s a surprisingly musical amplifier, with a wonderfully fluid sense of dynamics that keeps you hanging on every word.
Play the opening scene from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and characters' tones are communicated wonderfully. It isn't just about delivering crisp detail and solidity; this nuanced Denon imparts the humour and sarcasm behind the dialogue.
Each line is also clearly enunciated, refusing to be swallowed up by the havoc occurring around the main cast.
