Never had a problem with them, but I have heard they have a tendency to sell items they don't have in stock, without letting the buyer know about the wait time.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

Hate to hear that Mike, hopefully the problem will be solved in due time. You sound like me ([censored]) whenever this kind of stuff happens, sure can be aggravating to say the least.

I can strongly recommend Crutchfield.com. You can get the Denon 3805 from them for $900 including a USA warranty.

Bad news on the receiver for sure.
The distance certainly doesn't help. One plus about being near/in a major centre, selection of shops.

Of course, your problem could be solved by purchasing a "temporary" unit from a Big Box store and returning it after the game. Your scruples may prevent you from doing this, knowing that once you return the item, the store can't sell it as new, and someone along the sales stream will have to eat that cost. But its a legitimate option that many stores permit you to take advantage of. This will tide you over until the amp/receiver that you really want gets to your door. As a bonus, in the meantime, maybe you can test out a new/different brand amp that you hadn't considered before - who knows, maybe you'll be converted and stick with that amp.

It was nothing more than a blown fuse. Go figure. I should have went with my gut and tore it apart myself.
Oh well, I'm really liking the 7300.

OK, who here feels dumb because we didn't think of that? <raises hand>
Well, I'm glad it's fixed...

Well at least it's fixed. Now you have a spare and a nice new 7300 to boot. Not that bad a situation to be in.
