Denon reveals flagship AVR-X7200W AV receiver

The 'X7200W is a nine-channel amp delivering 210W per channel and featuring proprietary Denon High Current Transistors (DHCT). Denon claims it can deliver "best-in-class sound with minimum interferences".

It can also support a range of speaker set-ups beyond its nine power amp stages due to 11.2 channel processing and 13.2 channel pre-outs.

The HDMI board won't come equipped with HDCP2.2. Instead, Denon will offer a hardware upgrade in spring 2015 to include full HDCP2.2 copy protection protocol.

The Denon AVR-X7200W will be available from January in black or silver finishes for £2399.

But being the wonderful English guy he is, he helps out with content across a number of Future sites, including What Hi-Fi?. It wouldn't be his first exposure to the world of all things hi-fi and home cinema, as his first role in technology journalism was with What Hi-Fi? in the UK. Clearly he pined to return after making the move to Australia and the team have welcomed him back with arms wide open.
