      Hello Chas,

      We are sorry to hear about your disappointment. Here are some troubleshooting tips that may help improve your experience:

      1. Be sure to run through the Auto Calibration (Audyssey).
      2. If your front speakers are full-range, adjust the Bass setting on the receiver to LFE + Main.

      If your subwoofer and speakers are suitable for your room, these tips should enhance your sound experience. If you have further questions or need additional troubleshooting assistance, please contact our customer care team at 1-800-497-8921.

      Best regards,  
      Denon denon

    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.

    Updating our old receiver with the a new Denon accomplished what we wanted for our home theater system. So far we are very pleased with the Denon.
