    Does it all! This is the center of our entertainment system and we use it for video gaming, phonograph, computer and the television. Switches well, tons of ports to connect everything. Provides good sound for our advanced speakers.

    It is doing what I was looking for. Being able to listen to music in Zone 2 from any music App whether watching a TV program in Zone 1 or not. It was expensive, but I was able to price match and by it for less. Less expensive Receivers just cannot do the above.

    Bought this with a new LG TV. * The eARC/CEC functionality between these two is terrible - takes several minutes if it works. * I can't (or haven't found how to) EQ the overall sound as there is no treble/bass knobs. * I tried the 8K upscaler but it makes it look much worse than whatever source is provided. * Because the new tv has all the streaming apps built in - this AVR is really just for sound. Most of the bells & whistles go unused in this receiver. * My predecessor Yamaha receiver is almost identical in functionality (without the latest Atmos, etc.) so I think any brand may have performed equal in my situation. To me its not much of an upgrade and I don't have any praises to sing for Denon, sorry.

    This is one of the best AVRs out there, and it works with DIRAC live. The only thing to note here is that if you plan to use this with 11 channels, you are going to have to use the pre amp outputs for at least two of them and pair it with an external amplifier. Overall this is a great AVR

    We have had the Geek Squad out at least twice to adjust the sound and communication through our speakers. It is a bit complicated for our use. This last time we were told not to even use the Denon remote and just use the volume control on the TV remote.

    Coming from a Yamaha RX-A830 bought in Feb 2014. Paired this with a new LG 75QNED85UQA. 4K TV needs a 4K AVR. Very impressed and happy with this AVR. Love finally having Atmos capability. Running 7.2.2 with all SVS speakers. Perfect!

    I purchased this receiver for the IMAX enhanced and Atmos options. The most bang for your buck. Upgraded an older Denon and so far more than I could ask for.

    Purchased 3800h and received it next day, ran all my new speaker wire and mounted some rear speakers, opened up box and notice it wasnt in plastic, then notice it looked different then in picture, model on item showed 3700. Either someone at best buy pulled a fast one or someone put a refurbished one in a new box and i was the unlucky one to puchase. Best Buy Phone customer service was excellent which is why i put 3 stars, when i receive right receiver ill rate either 5 or lower depending on actually item. Im coming from a denon S960. Unfortunately i already unhooked it and not trying to plug everything back up
