Looks good, shame no Dolby ATMOS but you can't have everything :-)

not HDMI 2.0a so no HDR pass through.

then use an optical cable from TV. no atmos here so your not missing out.
shouldn't really be relying on the amp to upscale anyway, most 4k tvs do a good job as is

Yes you are missing out? No True HD, Dolby MA and 7.1
What are you on about letting the amp upscale, you do know what pass though is?

plus I use the built in Netflix and prime apps on my TV (which I'd assume most do?) so amp would have to be connected by optical

Cold. Not a proper brand... like ALBA.

Seems a good deal £369 on Amazon & £329 at RS so great price saving, the only thing I'd be worried about is warranty, 12 months is good for a refurb though.
I think I'd buy another Sony AV amp, I've just got rid of one which although cheap & cheerful when I got it & it's never missed a beat after 11 years its never really sounded very good but it was bargain basement so....
Just bought a used Yamaha RX-V1067 for £100 & my God it's amazing.
If I were in the market looking to spend this kind of money there's little really to put me off here, even the reviews are excellent aside no Atmos or DTS:X
Have some heat

Would most likely not top anything made 10 years ago. Unless you need hdmi's and dts-hd.
