Yeah, but Mike doesn't care about the Reon chip because he has an external video processor.

I'm going back to "time out" now.

Mike, if the 3800 is out because you want Audyssey, and the Reon on the 905 doesn't have a special attraction because of your separate video processor, that leaves the 3808 and of course there's no reason why it wouldn't be excellent with your M80s; no opinions needed. You might keep in mind though that the Sherwood Newcastle 972 which might be out in about three months will have a version of the Trinnov audio processor.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I reckon I opened myself to all this..... Abuse!!! \:\)

I’d love to have Rotel, or NAD even, but unfortunately they do not have any HDMI audio processing. I’m really irritated with NAD in that regards too… They delayed release of their latest and greatest processors to incorporate HDMI 1.3 verses 1.1, to only enable Multi Channel PCM processing. They have no plans to decode the bitstream formats from BR or HD. And Rotel is one step further back than NAD. They just switch HDMI….. No, the only three choices I have are Denon, Onkyo/Integra and Yamaha (and I ain’t even considering another stinking Marantz, so that’s not an option).

The S/N 972 continues to get pushed back. Now their talking second quarter of 08 and they can’t even make up their mind what VP to use….

And for the record Rick / Ken….. I didn’t blow any up. We just have had, er…. Uh… disagreements. I think they should work as advertised, and they don’t. So you two just join Tom in ‘time out’. No dinner for any of you smartasses.

I had to take advantage of a sale occurring now for the Denon 3808CI, but ending at 8:00 PM tonight at 6th avenue electronics. $1099 and free shipping (well not to Alaska or Hawaii anyway). You have to call them and ask for the special price. http://www.6ave.com/shop/home.aspx

The games begin in about four days….

I sure hope I have better luck with this one.

good, I just made a purchase for the 3808 from 6ave. Thanks mdrew for pointing that out! The cheapest price I had seen was for 1299 somewhere else.

I couldn't resist saving money so I bought it. I just need some speakers now... \:\)

I am about to have a $1100 hdmi switcher for a month or so until I get my axioms!

That's why I bought it too... I have not seen it that low from an authorized dealer before. At that price, I can't be worse off than I am now.

Anyone want a Marnatz? LOL
