Q: QuestionCan Denon AVR2800H drive Jamo C95 floor standing speakers with a Jamo C912 subwoofer to its peek and without distortion.

Asked 2 years ago by Jamo.

• A:Answer You can drive any amp to distortion, including this one. This receiver will probably be a little weak legged for those speakers if the task is solely to drive those speakers.

Q: QuestionHow does the sound compare to Marantz Cinema 60

Asked 10 months ago by Todd.

• A:Answer Hello Todd. That depends largely on which speakers are being used. If the speakers in question are not very demanding and reasonably sensitive (88dB or higher and in a small to medium sozed room), there may not be a significant difference to be heard between the AVR-X2800H and the Cinema 60. Cinema 60 is a little better equipped to drive a wider range of speaker types and loads.

Q: QuestionIs the Denon AVR-X2800H a good replacement for the Denon AVR-2808CI? I have a 7.2 set up with Paradigm Milenia R,L,C speakers and Paradigm ADP surround and rear speakers

Asked 1 year ago by SnowbirdInAZ.

• A:Answer Hello CB, thank you for your inquiry. The modern equivalent of the AVR-2808CI would be the AVR-X4800H receiver. However, if you do not need the extra channels of amplification and inputs provided by the 4800, the AVR-X2800H would be a suitable replacement and pair nicely with your speakers.

Q: QuestionWill this drive two Martin Logan Motion Foundation F2s, two Martin Logan Motion Foundation B1s, and a Martin Logan C1 2.5-Way Center Channel Speaker as a surround sound set-up or do I need something with more wattage per channel?

Asked 1 year ago by Craig.

• A:Answer Hello. Yes - the AVR-X2800H will drive the Foundation F2s, 2 x Foundation B1s and a C1. if you have a larger room or/and you enjoy spirited volume levels, I suggest the AVR-X3800H. Not only does the AVR-X3800H have more power, but it also has a full bank of pre-outs - just in case you ever wanted to get more performance from the Martin Logans by adding optional external power amplification.

Q: QuestionCan I connect 3 ohm impedance speaker to AVR X2800H receiver. If no, there are any other solutions to connect

Asked 2 years ago by sam.

• A:Answer Hello. In some cases, yes. It does depend somewhat on which speaker make and model you have. Impedance is always an average measurement. Without knowing the speaker make and model, it isn't possible for us to be certain either way.

Q: QuestionDoes this unit have a built in equalizer. I’m currently using a 20 year old demon putting out 110 watts per Chanel, but it is only capable of 5.1 surround. Just not sure if $1600. Upgrade is worth the money. I recently purchased a Samsung 85” qled90.

Asked 3 years ago by Oldman910.

• A:Answer You can access an equalizer easily through the app and I think through the various menu options clicking through with the remote, and it has a separate basic tone control for bass and treble.

Q: QuestionGM, Will the Denon AVR-X2800h handle my Bowers and Wilkins 802 floor standing speakers?

Asked 2 months ago by Ramone.

• A:Answer Hello Ramone, while the AVR-X2800H will power your 802 Bowers & Wilkins speakers at lower volume levels, it is recommended you power the 802s with amplification better able to give you more freedom with where you can go with the decibel levels in your room. The AVR-X2800H can handle many 4 ohm speakers, but the 802s have large cabinets and have a lot of air to move. Subsequently, they would benefit from more sophisticated amplifition to bring out the best in them. If you seek and all-in-one AVR solution, I suggest considering our AVR-X6800H. Alternatively, you can start with something more modest - such as the AVR-X3800H, and add an optional external power amplifier to drive the 802s. You may want to consider Marantz' AMP 20 as suitable opption should you have a full surround sound set-up.
