    Great power and sound for a resonable price. This receiver was very easy to set up and was packed with features. I am happy with my purchase!

    Good but not perfect

    It works good but the graphical user in interface can be glitching and the arc port to the projector will sometimes turn the projector off for no reason the receiver is very dead and won’t fit all the way in my tv stand so keep that in mind

    Best for Hi Quality and theater experience.

    I had an old X4000 in-command Denon before, and my family loved using 5ch total (towers LR, central, SL+SR and a sub...it had good power per channel with good sound quality. When I decided to upgrade to a newer version, I tried to find a receiver with similar specs and cost. And this one is totally worth it. More power per channel, more connectivity options, more channel for differents configuration. If you know, you know! Advice tip: use a overvoltage power protector!!

    Excellent Receiver!

    So far, so good. I went through three RZ50’s in less than eight months before giving up on the brand and purchasing the x3800h. Night and day, folks! The front channel dialogue, surround sound immersion, and overall channel separation on the Denon is far superior to the Onkyo. The different menus and options were a bit confusing at first, but once dialed in everything has been great. I can finally kick back and enjoy my media without constant glitches and adjustments. Polk Sig Elite’s and a couple Emotiva BasX amps round out the 7.2.4. As a side note, I recommend spending the couple extra bucks on the Best Buy Members Plus program - it’s already saved me $300 on price matches/discounts. Thank you Best Buy and Denon!

    Denon AVR-X3800H Purchase

    The undeniable fact that Denon provides the most “bang for your buck” is more true than ever in our opinion! I’ve dreamt of having a AVR with even less features for so long that I’m almost speechless. The Denon AVR lineup is so incredible I just wish other audio/video manufacturers could catch up to making such quality affordable to everyone! If you’re interested in high-end audio & visual entertainment you owe it to yourself to look at every product Denon has to offer because regardless of the level of your interest you can find affordable options without sacrificing the quality that probably got you interested in the first place. I can’t say enough about how happy with this latest addition to our home entertainment setup we are!
