Finally!! I got my upgrade done.... After calling Denon and figuring out that my ISP was forwarding any/all messages from Denon to the spam filter I have authorization to download the upgrade pack.
What a good day! I am surprised the replies were getting filtered out, after all they are going directly to your named account not a generic/mispeeled approximation name, anyway, glad to hear you got the upgrade done!

I have what might or might not be a stupid question:
When you upgrade to new features (such as here on the 3808), how do you control them? There's obviously no hard button on the unit, but how will I go about setting up an on/off option for Audyssey EQ and volume on a remote? I can't even "learn" it off the old remote since THAT doesn't have a function for it....??

Mark,
I have what might or might not be a stupid answer:
I don't believe you actually control any of the new feature upgrades.

Mark to control any of the features, like Audyssey, of the 3808 you need to hit the menu button and go into that specific features menu and then make the adhustments.

There is an EQ button on the remote that cycles on and off the EQ.. I guess you could use the "learn" feature to assign it to another remote.
The other thing you can keep in mind is that the second zone remote that comes with the denon has some hard buttons on it not found on the main remote that can be used during the "learning" process of a universal remote... not sure if that applies in this situation or not tho.

I've got my universal remote configured pretty well at this point, and I DID use both the "Main" and "Second Zone" remotes to learn from. I also have my remote configured with the "EQ" button so I can cycle through options.
Jay, I can understand that I need to go into the menu to change parameters of the new Audyssey features, but are you saying that it's something that will pretty much be left "on" all the time once it's configured...or.... you have to go within menus to turn the features on and off, which you'll want to do sometimes?
I had been assuming that I would want controls for turning the features off and on, hence my original question. Maybe that's a false pretense and the features work so well that they're designed to be left "on" at all times?

Well, my answer was a serious one and I warned you that it was possibly a stupid one.

Mark as Jason mentioned, once you have the 3808 setup it remembers what settings you used for that input, Audyssey on or off, so you shouldn't be switching things on and off nearly as much and as David said, there is a button on the remote to turn Audyssey on and off if needed.
