Pros & Cons
Harman Kardon HK 3770
VSPros
- The HK 3770 high current amplifier provides you with excellent control
- I like the Bluetooth function, which allows you to play music from my desktop computer in my office through an amplifier.
Cons
- After a few hours of listening to music (and I play music from the time I get up to the time I go to bed), it turns off, and I have to wander into another room and return it back.
Pioneer VSX-933
VSPros
- It maintains all audio formats. You do not have to spend a lot of time to find the appropriate file.
- Built-in Chromecast and DNS Play-Fi provide streaming music and internet radio from the mobile device.
- Stable Wi-Fi for wireless connection with any smartphones and laptops, as well as PC.
Cons
- Pay attention! If you want to buy this receiver because of the multi-zone feature, keep in mind that it is only compatible with the analog inputs. HDMI won’t help you use zone 2 function.
- In Zone 2 it works only on the RCA (analog) inputs but not HDMI or digital ones. So, to install speakers on the patio for accessing to satellite audio channels it is necessary to get DAC with the optical/coax outputs of the sat AV going in. Then you need to get RCA output going into the RCA inpu
