Very Good Reciever for The Price

"I researched quite a few receivers for my new HD home theater and had originally planned on the Harmon Kardon 354 or the new Marantz series that were around the same price range. But upon researching the blogs and listening to all three at my local retailers, the HK products had way too many compatibility problems with the Sony PS3 system acting as a Blu Ray plaer. Even with the latest patches, people were sti..." Read Full Review »

Denon's JUNK manuals

"The on screen menus make zero or no sense and the graphics on them look like they just came out of a first generation Sinclair gaming console from the 1980s. The setup manual for AVR-2309CI was clearly not written by a tech professional person who propably NEVER made setup of this receiver. I understand that this Denon AVR-2309CI is a complex piece of equipment that can do a lot of things but with tis SET-..." Read Full Review »

"I bought this to power a 5.1 setup consisting of PSB Image speakers T45 / C40 / B15 + and an HSU VTF 1. Now that I have replaced my old Yamaha RX-V730, the system has really come to life and sounds great. For a while I got caught up in the spec race and worried that 100W would not be enough. I was …"  Read Full Review »

"Bought this receiver at J&R. [...] Replaced Onkyo 703 that didn't have 1080p HDMI pass-through and ran very hot (wanted to take advantage of Dolby True HD and DTS Master Audio via HDMI, plus 4 HDMI inputs). The Audyssey speaker calibration system is outstanding. If done correctly, produces exception …"  Read Full Review »

"I use this receiver as my main home theater/audio hub in the main room (about 15' x 20'). I was honestly a bit worried about getting everything set up based on reviews I've read online. Many people have said that the OSD interface is antiquated and difficult to use. I tend to disagree. While it …"  Read Full Review »

"After weeks of research for the HDTV, I spent another several weeks reviewing receivers. The Samsung was a great choice for a TV and the Denon receiver seems like the best of the bunch - given that there is no clear choice in receivers like I feel there is in HDTVs.
