Best Home Cinema AV below £500

[CourtOne]

For the last couple of years the What Hi? Best AV receiver below £500 seems to have been an omitted category

A previous winner the Sony STR-DN1080 has since been discontinued, What are people’s recommendations? My Onkyo receive is outdated and does not have 4K capabilities. I currently have Bowers and Wilkes M1 Speaker system with a PV1 subwoofer which I have had for years and still swear by it! I was more buoyant, cash wise back when I bought it

So any recommendations for a ‘budget’ AV receiver? Thanks

Welcome to the forum.
Personally I am looking at getting this one to replace my aged Sony that recently ceased to power up.
However it's £580....

If it really must be below £500 look at the Sony STR-DH790

Yes, that is one fantastic amp. Hopefully will drop a bit during boxing day sale.
