Review: Great Receiver Value - I traded up to a Denon AVR-S970H from an Onkyo TX-NR636 that was slowly dying. They have mostly the same power rating and features. The setup was fairly straightforward with a few little quirks that, until you understand the operating logic, are common when you change brands. This receiver is advertised as a 7.2 channel system. It also advertises a powered Zone 2 output. However, you can't have both at the same time. The powered Zone 2 outputs use re-assigned Back speaker connections and the system then becomes a 5.2 system. Since a 5.1 and powered Zone 2 is what I already have, this fit my needs exactly. If you want a 7.2 channel with powered Zone 2, this receiver can't do that. Most of the new 7.2 systems seem to have a separate pre-amp Zone 2 output, which requires either an additional external amplifier or powered speakers to drive the Zone 2 sound. The use of their HEOS app to access on-line music streaming is definitely different, but seems to work ok. The additional Denon Remote app operates the receiver via Wi-Fi, which also works ok. Nothing fancy, though. The Bluetooth transmitter isn't available for wireless headset use when either the MAIN Zone or ZONE2 are sourced by HEOS, which prevents you from streaming on-line music from the receiver. TV Audio, Blue Ray, USB, CDs, etc. can all still be Bluetooth'd out, just not a HEOS source. I was stumped about this issue and called tech support. They answered the phone immediately and quickly answered my question. Not the answer I wanted, but that's how it works. If your TV or Blue Ray player can stream Pandora, Spotify, etc. app, you can feed that to the receiver and Bluetooth it out to headsets, so there is a work-around. The sound quality is very good and is marginally better than my old Onkyo. The Denon has some audio tuning features not on the Onkyo (Dynamic EQ, Dynamic volume, MP3 Rendering, and others). I have a remote reading temperature sensor in my stereo cabinet. The cabinet with an Onkyo always ran about 90-92dF. This is fairly hot and can impact long term reliability. To limit that high temperature, I had added 4 little computer fans to help ventilate the cabinet. So far, the highest temperature I've seen the Denon run is 80dF, a big difference for the same sound volume. Not sure why that is, but I like the result. I can probably remove the cooling fans. The one thing I wish the Denon had is a programmable TV power button on the remote. This missing feature forces me to use a 2nd remote every time I turn the system on. Overall, I would definitely recommend this receiver to anyone looking to buy in this price range.
Review: Denon is Great, not so for desertcart. - An amazing and easy to use AVR. On screen set up including room calibration provided a wonderful audio experience. This is my second Denon and I have to rate them as top of the line. desertcart Delivery was a problem though, they seem to be losing their advantage especially to Prime members who are told an arrival time at the time of order only to miss that regularly. I have experienced multiple times.... Unacceptable, sucker us in to make a purchase based upon receival date and then not provide that service.

https://support.denon.com/

**Q: Will my roku remote control the volume? i have a projector not a tv with arc or earc**
A: Hello, the Denon AVR-S570BT also comes equipped with ARC/eARC. With HDMI control activated and eARC connected, volume control can be done via the Roku Remote.

**Q: Can this play audio through wired speakers and wireless simultaneously?**
A: The Denon AVR-S570BT has Bluetooth for music streaming from a smart device that can be played back through connected wired speakers. The Denon AVR-S570BT is not compatible with wireless speakers. For Denon Home (HEOS) ability, please consider our AVR-S660H receiver. Up 32 zones are possible with a Deno AV receiver with HEOS.

**Q: can I  pair dennon   bluetooth headphones  ??**
A: Thanks for your question. The AVR-S570BT bluetooth feature is limited to receiving a stream from a portable device. It cannot connect to wireless headphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Sound Quality
*by C***D on December 27, 2025*

This receiver is fantastic. I have it in my bedroom connected via e-arc hdmi to my Amazon firetv powering 5 klipsch reference speakers and klipsch home theater sub. There's zero hiss or static. It sounds great and the bluetooth connects instantly. The included mic was able to set all the speaker distances for me. The menu can be a little intimidating, but after an hour or so I was able to figure it all out. I did download the manual, but didn't really need it. I would buy it again in a heartbeat. I think you'd be hard pressed to find another receiver that's this good for the price. Denon makes a fine product.
