SQ diff. between Denon AVR-3808 and AVR-4308?

Forgetting the features, power ratings, and price, would there be any appreciable difference in sound quality between the Denon AVR-3808 and AVR-4308? Does the 4308 use better DAC's and other internals? Are they essentially the same unit other than power and features?

Thanks for any guidance..

Don't I know you from somewhere.

I own the 4308 and the only SQ differences I am aware of are:

Power output - 140w vs. 130w
Advanced AL24 Processing on all channels for 4308 vs. AL24+ for 3808

What abotu the power supplies? Sure there are feature differences, but what I love about my 4802R is it toroidial transformers and its abilty to supply so much power on demand. I woudl think there are power supply differences,, but when you look at Denon specs they are generic and look the same at a high level.
