Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $1699.00 from Amazon

Summary:
This is without a doubt the best value AVR on the market today. The things this black box can do are just short of a computer with a sound card on steroids. If you want excellent surround sound, networking, & upgradability the 3808 is the ticket.
I like to tweek things, and being able to do that from my laptop makes it very easy. With a laptop I can access just about every feature and adjust/control it.

If you are in the market for a new AVR I would make sure you check the 3808 out.

Strengths:
Features
Sound Quality
Upgradeable
XM/Sirius
Networking

Weaknesses:
The remote(s) should be used to collect dust as a paper weight on top of the manual. I guess Denon had to cut the cost somewhere and they did it in the remote department.

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
