Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Need help deciding on receiver

Thanks bug!

That is a little pricey for just adding some extra video inputs/ outputs, but you just never know.

The issue, as I see it, is what will all the manufacturers settle on? I think that there is still some debate/ uncertainity for the audio/ video streams and switching.

I really would like to wait until all of this settles out before I get a new receiver or seperates.

By the way, did you see that 4000 series Denon on ubid? I think that it is on the second page.

Bernard, the most recent Denon in the 4000 series is/was the 4802, which is being replaced by the 4806, which supposedly will be available next week at a suggested $3,500. Several changes, including the MultEQ equalization also present on the flagship 5805.

John: if you go to the Denon USA website, there is no 4802 advertised for sale. The units go from the 3805 to the 5805 with no 4000 series.

Now, if you go to the Denon Canada website, they have the 3805, 4802, still have the 5803 and the new 5905. I had no idea that there was an existing 4000 series until I saw it on the ubid website a couple of weeks ago.

Makes me wonder if they will sell the new 4000 series in the U.S.

Why is different gear being offered in Canada than the U.S.?

Go Figure?????

Second paragraph of my previous post the 5905 model number should be 5805.

Bernard, the 4802 was sold in the U.S. and appears in the archives section of Denon U.S. If you take a look at the Crutchfield site you'll see their estimated May 27 date.
