Jack,
Denon should hire some technical personnel to write their manuals. When I received my Denon AVR-2105 from ecost the manual was no surprise as I had already down-loaded it from the Denon site to get a jump on things. The best part is when I purchased my new Sony 50" TV recently, the technician hooked up the TV, the Denon receiver, DVD, VCR, CD Changer, Axioms and set-up the receiver without the manual. I just handed him the remote control and he did his thing. All said and done, he was out the door 45 minutes later. Talk about service and no extra charges!!!!!
Cheers,
Shaun
