I have had the Epic 60 a few years now with a Denon AVR 883, I was pleased with it but decided to upgrade to the new Denon AVR 4308CI, Wow it brings new life to the Axioms a great increase in music and Video detail, along with DirecTV HD I am astonished. I got a great deal on the receiver from Crutchfield, scratch and dent and 10% discount coupon, the only dent was on the styrofoam inside the box, it was a previously opened box and it was an older production model, I could tell by the low serial number, but with the network connection I was able to upgrade the Bios to the most recent, took about 40 minutes. Now I have access to my entire MP3 collection onscreen right from the couch along with tons of internet radio stations and HD Radio as well.

Great Upgrade!

Several of us aroundhere have the 3808. I love the slick new GUI on these new denons.

Does the 4308 display album art on the screen when accessing music via your network?

Yes but it is a thumbnail in the upper left corner of my 65" screen about 12"x12"

I felt the same way going from my Denon 1804 to the 3808. I haven't done an A/B comparison but the lower end with the 3808 seemed to have more authority to me.
