Currently I'm getting by with workarounds that I've learned how to do by reading these forums. My 3802 has been a great AVR! And still is really.. Do any of you out there who have upgraded recently, feel that you've given up sound quality for all the added features? I have gone out and...

 Hi, I'm looking for replace my Denon AVR3803 what I do have for many years. Reason why I want to get new one is I want to be able use all HDMi connections what my old receiver doesn't have. I'm not expert so I need you help please. I do have: 60" full HD Sony TV ( rear projector ) with only...

 I've ordered one of these used (arriving in a week or so) and am trying to figure what I'll need. There is no remote control with the unit so I'm wondering whether it can be set up and controlled from the front panel or whether I'll need to get hold of a remote from somewhere.   Googling...

 I'm setting up a home theatre on a near-zero budget and really need a bit of help.   So far I have:   NLP NEC NP200 projector (£37) Denon AVR 3803 receiver (£100) Mac G5 (already own) 2 x B&W 602 (already own) 2 x Wharfedale Diamonds (£50) Wharfedale cubes (£40)   And that's me...

Does anyone know how to make an ipod work with this receiver? I have tried connecting it to the tape output and the phono output but the sound quality is poor and the AVR overheats a short time later. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

I have a Denon 3803 AVR with phono input. Would it be a good idea to buy a Cambridge Audio 640p preamp, or is that only a mere upgrade in performance?

As an audiophyte, I got a Pioneer 523-VSX-K receiver. When shopping for a turntable at a local vinyl store, I picked up both a B&O Beogram RX2 turntable ($125!!!) and a Denon 3803 for both its beefy amp (my Pioneer FS52s' lower two woofers actually turn on now) and its phono input. This is...

For those of you who don't know - this is what my current remote looks like: It is about 15 years old and only reason I want to replace it is because some buttons are starting to fail. This, if you ask me, is THE BEST REMOTE EVER. Period. No contest. Why? Because it's got buttons...

Its outdated. I have a directv mini genie box. It does not have component out. Only HDMI , s video or composite. The denon does not have hdmi anything. The tv only has component , DVI input s video or composite. I guess the cheapest option is a new receiver with HDMI inputs and outputs. What...

Hi everyone, I'm setting up a bunch of video game systems and trying to route as much sound and video as I can through The Beast (my Denon). I'd like the video to be routed through the component out, but I can't seem to get it to send anything to the TV that way. I've played with all the...

I'm asking this question because my components are hidden & thus rendering the remotes unusable. So I got this Denon Remote control Receiver that I should be able to point my remotes at & use. The Owner's manual is no real help connecting this, so I'm coming to the experts here (after a forum...

I have a surround-system with a 7.1 receiver. On my former computer I had connected the receiver with digital coax to the SPDIF port on my PC. On my actual PC I have no digital SPDIF. I have some surround ports and a HDMI port. The problem is I don't have HDMI on my receiver. My question...

Hey I'm in a pickle right now... I was trying to hook up an iPod through my denon and used the phono out this weekend, the sound wasn't that great so I unplugged it and just used my usual sound system... Well now I have no audio output on through the receiver, I think it is probably a simple...

Hello. My AVR 3803 is acting strangely. When I run the test tones built in I get sound from all 7 speakers (Front R & L, Center, Sub, Surround R & L and Surround Back R & L). However, when I use the AIX Records Blu Ray calibration disc that came with my OPPO Blu Ray player, all of the surround...

Hi Can anyone recommend a good upgrade to my old Denon Amp. My speaker system is an Energy Encore 5.1 system:- Thanks

I need to upgrade my Denon AVR3803 to provide more HDMI inputs but I also need to maintain all of the other connection capabilities on the rear, there's a lot of them. Looking at the newer Denon's they have multiple HDMI ports but all of the other connections have gone away. Here's a web link...

I've been out of the loop about receivers since 3803 came out (this is what I own now). What are modern equivalents of this receiver in around $1,000 price range? I don't really care about the brand and (probably) network connectivity features of the receiver. What I do care about are sound...

Hey all, I just purchased my first blu-ray player this week, the Sony BDP-S570, as well as the Tron Legacy blu-ray disc. As I was watching Tron this evening, I realized after about 10 minutes that I wasn't getting any surround audio at all. I'm configured for 5.1, and all the other channels...
