    Easy to set up and use. Was a replacement for my Onkyo. Only issue is that if I run my ps3 through it to the television the refresh rate doesn't keep up.

    Happy and satisfied does not begin to describe my satisfaction in this Denon product! Setup was a snap, instructions were detailed, and the finale results were amazing. And yes I’m running a full 7.1 setup, sounds fantastic

    The receiver is fine and seems to be the equal of the Pioneer receiver that it replaced - time will tell. I very much appreciated the Geek Squad person who installed it. He did an excellent job, trouble shot the system and gave helpful advice. Five stars ***** for him!

    Great home theater replacement receiver. Had an older Denon unit that the HDMI jack for the monitor went bad. Moved from 5.1 to 7.2 and it sounds great. Very decent for the price.

    Sound quality is great, but the features, menus, etc are hard to navigate. It even feels a little glitchy to get some menus to even show up. Overall, very happy though.

    I needed to update my audio/video receiver and this is a great entry level unit. Instead of using hard wired speakers, I used a separate Visio Bluetooth sound bar. I had to work around sound sync isses since it’s connected via Bluetooth, but it works well. The intended setup is with hard wired speakers. I’m very satisfied and would highly recommend this unit for those in need of upgrading their system without breaking the bank.

    the sound is excellent, connection wireless is easy. you need to be familiar with basic of sound to get the best of this amplifier. I'm frustrated bc Denon set up didn't allow me to create a separate zone, you need the secondary app in your cell to get the best of this model. I'm still trying to split the sound 5.1 inside house and two in the yard.

      Thank you for choosing the Denon AVR-X1800H! This receiver supports multi-zone playback, which you can manage using the HEOS app along with Denon HOME/HEOS wireless speakers, or by connecting speakers directly to the receiver.

      If you decide to hardwire your speakers, make sure to configure the second zone correctly in the receiver's settings menu by selecting "5.1 + Zone 2." Connect Zone 2 speakers to the surround back channels. Once everything is set up properly, you can control Zone 2 using the HEOS app or the included remote.If you need further assistance, please contact Denon Product Support by calling 855-720-0823.

      Sincerely,
      Denon denon

    This was purchased to replace a Denon AVR-X2700H, which no longer played well with our LG TV. Both were the same age, by several WEB OS updates to the LG TV rendered the handshaking between the Denon and TV sketchy at best. The new AVR-X1899H supports HDMI 2.1. I'm not absolutely sure that this was the problem, but everything works well together again. We don't play loud music, and so the slight decrease in output per channel is not noticeable.
