“Is the phono input section as poor as the one on my new Denon AVR-660H? That one just plain sucks and is soooo WEAK I need to turn the volume to at least "60" to hear anything of worth. Talk about shoddy! I also own an AVR-X4300H that is great!”

Hello, the Denon DRA-800H comes with a quality dedicated phono input.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This unit is compatible with turntables equipped with a moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge. When you connect to a turntable with a low output moving coil (MC) cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer. If you set this unit’s input source to “Phono” and you accidentally increase the volume without having a turntable connected, you may hear a hum noise from the speakers. Conne PHONO 800E2 NOTE The earth terminal (SIGNAL GND) of this unit is not for safety grounding purposes. If this terminal is connected when there is a lot of noise, the noise can be reduced. Note that depending on the turntable, connecting the ground line may have the reverse effect of increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the ground line.
