Pros: Sound and construction quality. Solid value. Cons: Large size, very heavy. Small display LEDs.
Introduction
It’s difficult to overstate the importance of the audio-video receiver (AVR) in the home theater system (HTS). Due to all the features, functions, and technical requirements, the selection process can be extremely difficult and time...
Pros: Clean lines, ample power, quality construction, multi-device learning remote Cons: Remote could be smaller.
I read many of the reviews before buying this unit and the difficulty of setup was one (and possible the only) apprehension I had. So of course I shared this with the technician at the store, who with a chuckle very obligingly showed me just how simple,...
Pros: Incredibly powerful, all the connections you need, and no fluff Cons: Probably a bit of overkill for most homes (mine included)
I truly am my own worst enemy.
I now have a Denon 3802 receiver occupying the same space that an already stellar 2802 once occupied, and the only reason I traded up was the nagging feeling that "good enough" wasn't "good enough." This unit...
Pros: Great Sound, sturdy construction Cons: Not user friendly
After shopping around for quite a while looking for a surround system for under a grand, the Denon 3802 came out on top. Compared to other systems I looked at; Yamaha, Sony, Harmon Kardon I thought the Denon had the cleanest sound. On that account I've...
Pros: Great sound Cons: Remote still has a bug or two
I did a lot of reviewing of surround receivers on the web and at local electronics stores. The other brands I was considering were Yamaha, Onkyo, and Harmon Kardon. I chose the Denon primarily because every review that I read had positive things to say...
I spent a lot of time researching receivers under the $1000 mark and this one was the winner. Not only it delivers superb sound clearity but also more than enough power to drive a 7.1 surround speaker configuration.
...
Pros: Great sound, ease of installation, ease of use Cons: Manual needs to be re-written for all to understand.
I have researched and studied most receivers in this class and this one takes the prize for price/features/quality. I use this receiver in my family room and am only running Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1. I chose this 7- channel amp because you can assign...
Pros: Clean Crisp Sound and Power, Remote Control, a sufficient amount of In/Outputs Cons: weight- its a bit heavy. Hard to follow Manual.
The Denon 3802 is a 6.1 AVR that has 7.1 amplifiers. (the .1 is the subwoofer) There are 7.1 external inputs on the back of the AVR to upgrade to a future 7.1 decoder. Using 2 rear speakers does make the system sound more rotund, but there is no Left to...
Pros: DTS-ES, powerful, lots of inputs, good remote... love it! Cons: None
This receiver has all the good. All the way to DTS-ES, the sound decoder can handle almost anything, except DVD-Audio. The system, however, has wideband (up to 100kHz) audio inputs for 'future technologies'.
Pros: 110 watts x 7. Durable. Awesome sound. Cons: Not a receiver for the novice.
I have had this receiver now for about 8 months now and have no complaints. The sound is incredible and the features are up to todays standards. I have tested side by side the Onkyo, Harmon Kardon, and Yahmaha and the Denon just out performed all of ...
Pros: Very powerful unit Cons: Too complex to operate
I purchased one these units but had to wait a couple of days for the reciever to arrive at the store. This gave me the time to pull up the instruction manual from the denon website for study. I thought I would be prepared for the worst this way. Well...
Pros: Very clean and powerful sound. Widescreen 7.1 surround mode. Cons: Manual is a little difficult to follow.
I recently purchased the Denon AVR-3802 and i am very pleased. The sound quality is excellent. I have added 2 Sony matching satellite speakers and when switching to the Denon 7.1 surround mode any source (2 channel stereo,5.1 etc) can be produced in 360...
Pros: Easy to use, more than enough power, easy to hook up, great looking Cons: Volume is hard to guage, Controller sometimes complicated,
I recently recieved a similar Denon brand reciever for X mas. I was told that this was the top of the line brand and so far its lived up to it. This reciever is packed with more than enough power to supply any speaker set with.IT also comes with an...
