Denon AVR-X2700H DAB Black Focal Bb Evo 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos

TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY!

Both products are good but only individually. Together they are a disaster!

The volume will never exceed 70%. The Denon after-sales service as well as the Focal after-sales service kindly explained to me that the amp is not made to exploit the whole sound stage of the Focal 6ohm speakers, at least not in a 5.1.2 configuration.
As soon as an Atmos system is installed, the use of the top range is strongly advised (Denon AVC-X3700H or AVC-X4700H, more if no budget limit).

Result, an amplifier AND speakers burnt out in 5 months, complete absence of the SAV after return. Despite a month of waiting and weekly reminders, still nothing!

For film lovers, this may be enough because the amplifier is not used in its entirety at a too sustained rate. On the other hand, for those who want to turn up the volume to its maximum (reasonably so) and listen to music, this pack is to be avoided without regret for the higher range!

1200€ may not be much for LDLC, but for the average person, it is an investment. And so for me, a very bad investment that is not even in my house anymore!

LDLC service at its best! Products expected

As far as LDLC's service is concerned, nothing to complain about. Great price (200€ savings), fast delivery (48h) for an order placed on Sunday evening!
For the Onkyo AVR-x2700 + Focal SIB evo Dolby Atmos set, once the installation is done, the Audissey settings and calibration are done, you just have to wait for the end of the break-in period. Then it's pure pleasure in multichannel. Don't expect a monster of power but the sound image is precise on all the dynamic ranges and totally satisfies my expectations. No regrets.
