Denon Receiver???
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to like this receiver but in truth it failed after only 2 days. The receiver crapped out and I had to return. It sounded great for the day it worked. Hard to find one in stock nowadays so I have to continue on with the Pioneer Elite receivers I currently own.

Maybe too much at full-price, still a good product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this open box. The state of the item was not properly described on the BestBuy website, but it was still in a fully functional state once a new remote was ordered. The receiver itself is good. I would say the MSRP is a bit much for the full functionality of the system, but there is nothing wrong with the receiver. Works as expected.

power
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not your first, I have had a lot of receivers this one has everything you need, tone controls are difficult to use, I miss just a simple bass/treble control, with the right speakers you can blow your house down!

Serious Upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to upgrade from older Denon AVR to communicate with new "smart" TV. BT / HEOS will allow adding remote speakers in planned addition without running hard wires! Denon still at the top of the heap in AVR's in my book!

Have to have an engineering degree to set this up
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a good system and once you get it figured out it works great but to set it up is quite a pain. No plug n play got to keep moving wires till it works with the surround sound. You can’t configure the speakers your wAy you have to do it the denon way. Which doesn’t work in my room

Great AV Receiver for TV ONLY
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace my old Denton AVR-987. This is a good receiver for TV only in my opinion. If you are going to expect to shake the walls this will not be the ticket. I returned it due to it’s lack of 2 channel power. My old AVR-987 Absolutely out powered this unit in sound and quality of sound. Went back to the store and demoed several units and would of had to spend 3 times this amount to equal my old unit. Loved the connectivity of the new unit but not the sound quality. The Marantz receivers were the closest comparison to my old Denon AVR-987 and none of the newer Denon matched that. That was in the Magnolia studio. So for me I stuck with my older system until something comes around at a affordable price that can match its sound quality and performance.

To each his own taste. It works every time
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a long-time Yamaha fan but my curiosity got the better of me and I bought this on the recommendation of a Geek Squad installer. I personally have decent installation skills myself and did not need Geek Squad help with the setup at first. Unfortunately, it did not go smoothly even after getting some needed help from Denon Tech Support. I was misinformed to the point of frustration by two of them and, after returning it for a higher-end model on the recommendation of a senior Denon analyst, I ended up returning it for a...you guessed right: A Yamaha Aventage RX-A780 receiver. To each his own taste, I guess. It sometimes pays to listen to one's inner self.

great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My only complaint is that if I turn on CEC that it passes audio through to the display as well. However, this my just be a fault of my display for not supporting ARC.

New Surround Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It integrates seamlessly with my 4k Blu ray player and 4k 82" TV. Love the fact you can run two subs from the receiver, instead of jumping one to another.
