I am fully convinced!
The machine does what it is supposed to do. It's easy to use and adopts the best settings for the source thanks to Audyssey.
You know when the voices are soft but the scene is loud? Thanks to Voice Enhancer, I don't need to adjust the volume for the whole film.Pro
- Powerful
- Beautiful user interface
- HEOS Multiroom System
- MULTI-CHANNEL-SURROUND (Dolby & DTS)

Schuko mains plug
What if it were stated somewhere that the unit is supplied with a Schuko mains plug and that no adapter is included?
Good mid-range home cinema amplifier
I'm happy with my purchase, it's a good improvement on my old Pioneer amp (well, it was over 10 years old).
Pro
- High-quality visual interface (menu, responsiveness, information, etc.)
- Interactive, easy-to-use start-up guide
- 2 HDMI outputs for simultaneous display on 1 or 2 screens
- Wifi management
- DAB radio
- AirPlay
Contra
- Average quality remote control (grip, quality of materials, not backlit)
- Difference in sound level between different sources without option to correct/align volume
A lot of good technology for this price
It took me a while to get everything working the way I wanted (I'm used to Yamaha AV) but the result is outstanding, both audio and video.
Pro
- Price
- Power
- Decodes everything so far
Contra
- Large, when space matters
So far I am satisfied with my receiver, but the operating instructions are not well written.
Pro
- Easy to operate
- Good menu navigation on the television
- Inexpensive with dab and lan/wifi
Contra
- Haven't found anything yet
Perfect
I'm very surprised by the audio quality of this amp, which has given a new lease of life to the hp I already owned. The sound is clear and dynamic, and the Audyssey calibration system has done wonders for my living room.
Pro
- Features
- Audio quality
- Reactivity
- Remote control
Contra
- Heats up a bit
Does what it should
Pro
- Easily processes all digital and analogue inputs
Contra
- Menu for Quickselect is not well programmed
Well
I have the Teufel Theater 500 and unfortunately the receiver doesn't deliver the desired performance (I know it's actually 180 watts, but even at 60% power it dies). As there is no fan, the thing gets very warm very quickly and switches off. I had to switch to the X3800 because of the active ventilation. Don't buy this appliance if you live in a warm environment (attic). Otherwise the appliance can be used as an alternative hob.
Pro
- Works (if you use speakers from the 70s)
- If you need an AVR as a decoration (as long as you are far away)
Contra
- Gets very hot
- Cheap plastic (an egg weighs more than the remote control)
- Remote control not illuminated (WHY ALSO? MAINLY THE BUTTONS ARE TRANSPARENT WITHOUT SENSE)
- Processor slow
- only looks good from a distance
- too expensive for the performance (unless you are using a system from the 70s)
- worth max. CHF 250 (very well meant)
- feels like an update once a year (because of the shitty performance)
- anyone who rates the part well will probably also buy a Tesla (my condolences)
Good, but important functions are missing
All good to very good for the usual expectations of such a device.
In everyday life, however, it has become established that films are streamed and hardly ever brought in via any HDMI players.
It's important to realise that you can't install apps like Netflix and the like on the AVR,
although the AVR has an internet connection.
Even more annoying is that you cannot share the screen content of the iPAd/iPhone with the TV/projector connected to the AVR via Airplay 2.
Only audio content can be shared in this way. This is disappointing for a video reciever.
It also requires an Apple TV or Internet-enabled Bluray player, which makes operation much more complicated, if only because it then requires two remote controls at the same time.
Pro
- Audio
- Simple set-up
- Easy to use in everyday life
Contra
- Airplay 2 only possible for audio, not for video
- No screen sync from iPad/iPhone possible
GALAXUS service
Once again, GALAXUS is unable to deliver its products with a Swiss power cable. Can't they automatically include a Swiss cable with every order? Do we have to make a negative comment every time, wait until we receive a suitable cable?
