Rated 5 out of 5

Denon's last(?) Japan-made AVR is still worthy of respect.

Hiya, 4.5 stars if allowed. This unit has been holding up very well. Gobs of Grunt for more most casual speaker sets. Audessey set up okay. Taking advantage the DSX or PLII Z I've been able to integrate height speakers very well for a lot of cinema nights on a 9.2 system. Often some very nice stuff, try BD AVATAR many scenes, very expansive. Using an AC Infinity Aircom S-8 in-cabinet cooler I have had zero problems with dissipating chassis heat for less than $100 and an easy fit on top of the Denon. Check AC Infinity out btw. About the only complaint I have are the weird menu structure and inexplicable restrictions like no one-button push to tell you what the input signal specs are. Then ther is Denon's baffling decision that in order to have 'PURE DIRECT' output to your Front L&R, you need to have entirely separate speakers hooked into the AVR from the two that are your FL and FR in Multi-channel. Coming from old Yamaha AVRs some of the inflexible aspects of Denon are a pain. -- Overall, I'm not looking to change my AVR. For the $1K I spent 8 years ago, 4.5 Stars today.
