I purchased the 3805 and have been very pleased (the manual left a lot to be desired). There is a good review of the 3805 at Audioholics. The retail was too high at $1299, but I was able to purchase it for $940 plus $35 shipping from Hippo's in Albany NY with no sales tax. They are an authorized dealer (important as Denon will not honor the warrenty when purchased from a non authorized source).
