Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this receiver for my home theater it works great awsome sound plenty of power ans easy set up

This receiver does everything except the dishes in the sink. Top of the line performance and swift easy set up, sounds incredible connected to anything. Paying extra for Dirac was the deal breaker although Auddesy was fantastic. Wanted to keep this but a power surge shut it down completely

Great AVR - easy to set up, sounds amazing and powerful. Audissey works awesome, but can't wait for DIRAC to be available for this AVR. I'm using it with 20 year old Polk Audio speakers. Using it in a 7.2.4 configuration, but I just found out it can also control tactile transducers through one of its 4 subwoofer outputs. So, maybe next year we can add those to the seats. We are very happy with this receiver. It had some video switching issues out of the box, but they cleared up on their own during setup; don't know what the problem was, but its gone now.

Denon 3800H, Purchased 4 months ago. This avr has brought my home entertainment to the next level! I've never run height speakers (just two) or been able to "tame" my 4 subs, but this Denon 3800 was very easy to setup and with some light fine tuning using an spl meter (worth the $30 on Amazin) all my movies have taken on a new dynamic feel (especially ones done in Atmos). Even without height speakers, it has settings to simulate overhead surround, but you can't beat the "realness" of having a few overheads. This Denon has Audyssey room correction so you don't need an spl to enjoy this Denon, but it is a noticeable difference when you hear it; you know. Watch some vids from Audioholics, or Audio Advice and you will get way more avr than you expected! Still many features I have yet to explore, but my needs haven't called for them yet. Enjoy the next level with this Denon...

Wanted the pre amp outs. This is the lowest level denon that offers them. Out of the box using the internal amplification, it sounds good. Can’t wait to upgrade to external amps. Mine doesn’t run hot. Longevity stbd Ratings are based off 1 month of use…hopefully I didn’t get a dud as others have reported.

I had an older model and this one is much more powerful, I'm still learning all features. But I 'm a bit bias, since I love the brand.

Upgraded from a 10 year old Pioneer Elite 90sx. Far better sound. I found it easy to hook up, despite some of the reviews. The ap works well. I don’t upgrade to the Dirac live feature. I’m just not sure what that would give.

Works very well. Easy to configure, even interfacing with a samsung TV

Easy understood plug -n-play. The quality of sound because of the Audyssey Microphone for sound calibration is outrageous! It puts my Sony receiver to shame. I do not regret purchasing Denon. Especially with all the extras that are built in the Denon I bought.

Great replacement for the slightly defective X3700 we tried from open box. Best Buy was great to work with and helped me with the exchange/return to get the 3800. Great receiver. Heos is awesome. great power. very satisfied so far. Replaced an old Denon 3310ci receiver. what a difference!

We bought this Denon X3800H receiver as an upgrade from a 2014 Pioneer Elite 5.1, two channel receiver as we wanted surround sound for video streaming services, DVDs, 2 video game systems, and musics apps controlled through our phones, and to power 2 other rooms in-wall speaker pairs with stereo for music. TotalTech came and installed it yesterday, so this is a 'first impression' review. It was set up, configured and tuned in about 90 minutes and I'm really pleased with the rich sound. My speakers sound better! Tested Spotify, DVDs, Youtube, Disney+ (Andor - sound is awesome!)...all so excellent. Haven't tested video games yet. I'm really impressed so far!

This is such an improvement over my old equipment. I love the clarity of the sound and while I'm still learning the different audio modes, I find it pretty easy to move around without getting lost. This was at the top end of my budget, but I'm glad I stepped up.

Excellent Denon Receiver!! Impressed with the sound quality and ease of start up! Flawless pairing with my Klipsch speakers!! Highly recommended it!! Oh and I bought it on sale from Best Buy at $650 plus off!!

I am very happy with this home theater receiver.It was easy to set up has lots of power and sounds great.I think it was a big upgrade from my Denon 1712 .

The unit seems to have an issue properly displaying 4k120 over the zone2 output which is slightly inconvenient for me. Could be a bigger problem for others. Also have had issues with Bluetooth audio dropping out constantly but picks back up instantly when I press the source button?? It's the weirdest glitch. Otherwise this unit is awesome and impressive and worth it if you can snag it with 2 year financing for 1200 bucks like I did. This seems to be the most value for a unit that supports 11 channel 7.4.4 processing to take advantage of the widest available home audio.

Awesome receiver. So many great functions. I have in ceiling speakers so I use zone 2 for music, easily controlled from Spotify app on my phone. Easy to use. High quality item. I have used Yamaha and high end pioneer receiver and this blows them away in quality.

Wanted a receiver I could grow with as I currently have a 5.1 system. I hooked it up and it sounded really good. Then I did some digging and applied Dynamic EQ and this thing blew my mind! By far the BEST sounding surround I have ever heard in my system. It's amazing. Trust you have to have a great source (I'm using APPLE TV) that is sending a great 5.1 or better signal. Upmixing stereo isn't bad either. Totally worth the extra $$$.. Time to get some height and back surround speakers! Oh and the 8k pass through, not an issue at all, works great!

Upgraded from 3300W. Great new features, easy to set up, works well with Audyssey app, incredible sound quality.

Really like this receiver. Easy to setup and use. Sound is very good with our existing 7 speakers and subwoofer. Upscaling of video is also very good.

120hz/4K, 60hz/8k, HDR, eARC, Atmos. It’s got it all. Sounds great. Smooth setup via UI, microphone based speaker configuration. No complaints.
