Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Maximum amperage for M50's?

If you never notice clipping and you don't listen at loud levels then get the Onkyo and be happy. Just keep it ventilated because it does get quite hot.

Hello again everyone. After spending about 2 hours researching every night, I've decided against the Onkyo 875 or 905. I don't like the possible heat issues (which seems to be caused by the Reon HQV video chipset), and the audio 'pausing' for a few seconds when switching channels.

So I'm almost 100% decided on the Denon 3808. Anyone have any experiences with this unit? I've been very happy with Denon in the past.

A fair number of us on here have the 3808 and I love mine. The GUI is very nice and the network capabilities for streaming directly to it is great. I also like that I can listen to internet radio stations through it.

Just to pile on, I had the same question about 2 weeks ago and the folks here more than convinced me on the 3808. Mine is in the mail now, so I can't comment on performance, but after going through the same decision process you did I can tell you I don't feel like I'm losing much going to the 3808.

When I really started to think about the amount of SDTV I watch (next to none) the Reon upscaling became much less of an issue for me. On the flip side, I know I will use the network streaming and love the fact that firmware updates can be done in-home without dealer involvement. In an industry that has so many changing standards and evolving audio formats, knowing I'm a little more future proof is an added bonus.

Well I went over the pluses & minuses of the 2808, 3808 and the 4308 with the wife, and she liked the 4308 the best. Will be delivered tomorrow!

Hey, very nice. You'll have to tell us all how the 4308 works out.

I think I'm in love!
