Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Denon reveals 10 new receivers

I remember making up spreadsheets when i first started looking at receivers, trying to make sense of all the specs on the same playing field.
That alone was crazy, so i narrowed it down to "how much do i want to pay" and eliminated a bunch with that criterium alone.
But 10 models from one brand?
Geezuz.

Yeah, I didn't know much when I was buying, so I didn't have too many choices. I think the deciding factor was 192/24 something or other on all 7 channels.

A feature that, to the best of my knowledge, I have never used.

But you sleep well at night knowing it's there, right? By the time that capability is "necessary", you'll have upgraded to something else, likely. That new TV you'll get in 2010 won't work with anything but SHDMI.

*stunned silence

Dammit, you're right. Just when I get the feeling of comfort that I'll be set for a while in terms of equipment, you have to brutally shake me awake. I fart in your general direction. Due North, if I calculate correctly.

You realize, of course, that there are really only 5 new Rx. Three digits for the big box stores, 4 digits for the specialty shops.

Thats what they claim, but even best buy sells the 4 digit models.

BB sells the 4 digit ones? I have never seen them there, at least up here, strictly the 3 digit versions which are priced right between the CI 4 digit ones.

The BBs that have Magnolia Home Theater sections do.

Yeah, One here has the Magnolia Home theater section. I was looking around and saw the 3808 for sale for $1599+ 9% sales tax.
No thanks!

I don't think the other BB here has a Magnolia home theater.. wonder if they only carry the 3 digit models then.

I wish they would start selling thier line up out of Wicker Emporium. My wife will buy anything from that place and I bet she would come home with a brand new AVR by accident.
