I would recommend this to a friendBoring and lifeless
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The build quality is fine and setup is easy enough but the audio quality is disappointing (AVR-X2800H). I had to replace a Harman Kardon from 2006 and by comparison the Denon sounds sterile and boring. Harman Kardon's 40 watts is stronger than Denon's 95, the 2800 will have noticeable audio degradation long before it hits 95w.

Posted .Hello. Not knowing which speakers you have, it isn't easy for us to be certain what the issue might be. The vast majority of those who have detailed their experience with an AVR-X2800H are more than happy with the overall performance. This could be an indication that either your system requires a little more break-in time (3 weeks of regular usage), or the settings may need some attention (we recommend running Audyssey and experimenting with Dynamic Volume and Dynamic EQ the get the best results from your new purchase), or your speaker load is such that it requires a different model in our line-up. AVR maximum wattage ratings can be useful for offering some idea as to how loud a speaker might go, but sound quality is generally determined by other factors. For more details on how to achieve a successful speaker/AVR pairing, we suggest speaking directly with the manufacturer of either the desired AVR or the speakers. Here is a link to the details on how to select Dynamic Volume and Dynamic EQ: https://manuals.denon.com/AVRX2800H/NA/EN/GFNFSYphwaueoj.php#OKNRMLviuvfmcr

Wow have there been changes since buying the last time. Our BB sales person was knowledgeable and assessed our needs spot on. It works perfectly.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a 10 year old Marantz avr. While there is no denying the Marantz had a more "musical" tone, the clarity and control of the sound and surround effects are amazing on the Denon. With the comparable Marantz costing a chunk of change more I think this is the better return on the dollar as the Denon is a close second.

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this Denon product to replace a broken receiver from the Stone Age. I wanted to be able to use a wonderful old speaker system I cannot use without a receiver. Three reasonably tech savy friends tried, and failed to install it. And so I hired the Geek Squad to come out and set it up. This fellow (and an assistant) also could not get it to work properly. There are, by the way, no dials on the receiver itself---it must be run through your phone (whose idea in product development was this?) Finally, I returned it to the store, and was relieved to be out only my lost time and the price of the Geek Squad visit. I left it behind with a pleasure that comes only rarely in life.

Posted .Hello George. Sorry to learn your experience with replacing your receiver didn't go as well as you had hoped. Some older speakers lack the conventional connectivity, and therefore are not compatible with modern AVRs by any brand. Bose 901s with their external EQ are a good example of this, with users left out in the cold when they look for a new AVR to drive them. Receiver connectivity has changed so much in the last 30 years that they are now called AVRs. This is due to the fact that they also support advanced video connectivity. There are likely to be potential solutions for you, but unfortunately - without knowing the make and model of speaker you have - it isn't possible for me to offer any suggestions at this point.
Great sound and nice features!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up and great sound quality! It took a while to set up the microphone and tune the receive to the media room but it was worth it.

Lots of features
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] Great reciever. Handles all my speakers with no problems, plenty of hdmi ports for my devices, can be controlled woth the remote or app. There is still more for me to experience with it but its great.

I would recommend this to a friendFailed one day after 15 day return period
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this online and had it delivered. Use it for TV audio, and listening to Bluetooth music. 1 day after the 15 day return period, it made a loud noise and disconnected from Bluetooth. After that, Bluetooth connectivity is intermittent and has to be constantly reconnected. Beyond frustrating. This is a very expensive unit, and now I have to ship it to Denon at my expenses, and hope they can find the issue. Worst purchase ever. And so frustrated with the lack of service
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good AVR for the basic audio / video programs. Not easy to install. Better to ask professional installer.
