Denon AVR-2500 as garage system?

[kmcorolla15]

So I picked up a Denon AVR-2500 for free from Facebook Marketplace along with some other components (was a condo cleanout). Original remote and in near-mint condition. Would this make a good system for the garage? I already have an external DAC and a 65 inch TV in there.

Thanks in advance!

It is about 30 years old and is an old prologic receiver, but does have one set of multichannel inputs.

Since it is pre HDMI there will be a lot of gear you can't connect to it, like a modern TV and players. We are way past the analog sunset, so it depends on how you are going to use it. Those pre HDMI receivers have very limited usefulness now. They have been pretty much regulated out of existence by digital rights management.

I wouldn't do that...Denon's are usually designed for attics.

Im starting to think that a soundbar would be a better option (It's a garage after all). I know someone that lives closeby that refurbishs/sells vintage audio equipment. He would probably get better use out of this than me haha. I'd love to keep it but don't have anywhere else in the house to set it up (I already have 3 Atmos systems in the house).
