I was planning on picking up a Denon AVR-3808CI when they finally hit the market here but I'm getting impatient (it's been almost a week and a half my shiny new speakers are for the most part sitting silent).
I have to admit the #1 reason I want this receiver is it's built-in ability to stream FLAC encoded music. I have about 1200 CDs ripped to FLAC and stored on a 1TB NAS. The HDMI 1.3 is kind of interesting since I picked up a 1080P Sharp TV the other day too.
Should I stop whining and wait or does anyone know of another receiver that'll do the trick? Budget is around 1.5K but that's not written in stone.
