Customers are delighted by the AVR-X3800H's excellent sound quality, ease of use, and powerful performance. Many appreciate its straightforward setup and the wide array of features. While some users noted that the receiver can get warm during operation, the positive feedback on sound and functionality outweighs this concern.

    DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT (OR ANY OTHER) FROM BEST

    DO NOT BUY THIS OR ANY OTHER PRODUCT FROM BEST BUY. I have over the last several years tried to support my local BestBuy buy making purchasing from them when I could. So I bout this product on 3/29 but was out of town when it arrived. I out it together on 4/14 for my wife's birthday which is on 4/15. As we were watching a show, the unit shut down going into "protection mode" as it was either overheating or had some other issue. I replaced an older version of this unit which never had those problems so didn't think it would be an issue. So I woke up this morning, 4/15 and immediately went online to the chat with BestBuy to start a return. They refused to take it back. I never though about the fact that the return policy would be 15 days because nobody in US retail would have such a terrible return policy UNLESS they were desperate. In my experience, and this reminds me of when restoration hardware almost went bankrupt years ago, companies with bad customer service and return policies are at the tail end of their profitable existence as they have had to make the choice between hanging on to margin at the expense of losing customers. I suspect, this is where BestBuy is headed. What they don't realize is that this return policy will only expedite the exodus from them. IF you want to by this product, make sure you have a ton of space around it for cooling and that you only want 2 zones for speakers, because while it has 9 channels it only allows 2 zones. For 3 you have to pay up even more. But again, don't buy it from Worst Buy, Buy it from AMAZON.

    • Brand response from Denon Team
      Posted .

      Hello,

      We’re sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing with your receiver. To help you troubleshoot, we recommend calling our Product Support team for assistance. As a helpful suggestion, please check all connected speaker wires. A frayed wire touching another speaker wire or terminal can cause the receiver to go into protection mode. Make sure to inspect all speaker wire connections at both the speaker end and the back of the receiver.

      Additionally, proper ventilation is essential for heat dispersion. We recommend maintaining a minimum of 6 inches of space above the AVR and 2 inches on either side. This will reduce the risk of the unit overheating, especially when playing at high volume levels.

      Regarding the addition of extra zones, the Denon AVR-X3800H features HEOS built-in, allowing you to add additional wireless HEOS speakers. Up to 32 zones can be accommodated with HEOS.

      You can reach our Support team by calling 800-497-8921.

      We look forward to assisting you.

      Sincerely,
      Denon denon

    Bought this for our living room. Love that it allows for two zones which helps when watching football or listening to music.

    It seems to work. We have had some clunky installation issues and I still get message about something needing to be connected to the right port. However, the sound seems to work as advertised.

    Upgraded from the Denon AVR-S960H. This new receiver is leaps and bounds better than the last last release. More inputs, but best of all 6 8K HDMI Inputs.
