    Hello. Looking for a new AV Receiver. 
    I have Philips 55pos9002,  Wharfedale DX1's; Xbox One X and HTPC hooked up
    Getting rid of old Yamaha  RX473 as it doesn't do 4k passthrough @60HZ and having difficulty with ARC directly between the Philips and the Yamaha
    Considering Sony DN1080; Denon X2400H or similar to future proof (as much as possible)
    Have you any open box/display models available OR whats the best deal you can currently do?

    Also possibly thinking of some Atmos module to go with the DX1's -- any thoughts/recommendations?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Arknine.

    The AVRX2400 and the STRDN1080 are two of the best receivers within their price points. Both 5 star reviewed in What HiFi.

    The AVRX2400 is currently £349 and the STRDN1080 retailing at £437.00. Both have been slightly reduced this week.

    I would have no open box ones of these units as they very rarely would get returned.

    Regarding an Atmos Module, do you mean Atmos speakers?
    The actual Atmos module would be built into the A/V Receiver as this would be the chip that would decode the audio format.

    If its Atmos speakers that you are after there are the folllowing:

    Onkyo SKH410 priced at £119 (Currently out of stock)

    Next would be the Elac A4 Atmos priced at £249.00 - I could go to £220 for a pair.

    Let me know what you think, any questions drop me a post.

    Hi Arknine.

    Unfortunately as they have just dropped I can not offer any further discount at the moment. Both are currently the cheapest they have been from their release date.

    I could offer shipping if that helps.

    We also offer a price beat, please read the T&C's here as there are a few guidelines that we must stick to:
