Denon AVR-X3800H 9.4-Ch Receiver - 8K UHD Home Theater AVR (105W X 9) Built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi & HEOS Multi-Room Streaming, Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced & Auro 3D

Lovely product... Heat sink is getting hot after half an hour...thankfully not towards damage.... Extra fan is needed.......to maintain temperature...

In many ways, the Denon AVC-X3800H represents exactly what we’ve come to expect from a Denon AVR: excellent engineering, a comprehensive feature set and a refined sonic performance. For the price, you get nine channels of amplification, 11.4 channels of processing with the option to run in full preamp mode, fully fledged HDMI 2.1 with 8K support, and the promise of future integration with Dirac. That kind of feature set is unheard of at this price. That, combined with a polished user experience and rock-solid build quality, makes for one of the most compelling AVRs on the market. Pros: Movies Sounds fantastic Preamplifier mode means it can be used as an 11.4 channel processor Four subwoofer outputs with directional bass mode Rock solid build quality Dirac integration Lot of ports and connections to hook everything Bass shaker control Cons Muddy sound for music-my old Yamaha RX V667 sounds me too melodious in terms of stereo. Outdated remote controller No speaker layout display

I purchased on 19 th January 2026,I started to use the item May onwards,within two months it becomes faulty power button blinks continuously,so I contact with authorised service centre and they were refused to give warrenty for online product.Then I contact with Amazon support they also not ready to give any warrenty .I really bad impression on denon products and Amazon service after purchase.

Excelente equipamento. Qualidade nos detalhes. Entrega som e imagem em bom nível.

Este receptor de Denon es para exigentes, tiene una gran variedad de opciones y debes experimentar con el para obtener el mejor sonido, en mi caso lo utilizo con bocinas Klipsch en los frontales principales y 2 subwoofers combinado con bocinas Bosé para el surround y canal central, el sonido y la potencia son excelentes, Audissey funciona muy bien y ya que está el sistema calibrado todavia tienes la opcion de modificar cualquier canal para adaptarlo especificamente a lo que estas viendo y escuchando, y todavía está la opción de Dirac! que aún no he probado, es un poco complicado de usar al principio pero despues es muy gratificante el resultado, ampliamente recomendable, pero cuidado no es un receptor para conectar y usar así como viene de fabrica.

I replaced an old Onkyo 535 with this Denon. It was a significant upgrade. There is zero noise, the Bluetooth is easy to use and provides excellent sound, and the HDMI circuitry is outstanding. The eARC capability is compatible with 2.1 HDMI, and it works seamlessly. Of note, I really like the way it provides the best sound configuration automatically for each source, and I don't have to switch around to find the best sound option. For example, if the source is compatible with Atmos, it provides Atmos. If it's only compatible with Dolby surround, it switches to that. Finally, the distribution of sound is superb. I have a 7.1 speaker configuration of mostly mid-level speakers, and the Denon uses them to their fullest. Rear sounds come clearly from the rear...same with each side, etc. And most of all, I don't have to tweak the system to get that. I just used the provided microphone and ran the set up (which was really easy), and I have really great sound. This unit is a good value.

Demon customer care is an amazing help. My 3800 had a BIOS problem after 2 years. Warranty is 3 years. They sent me a refurb, and that pooched out in about 5 minutes, so I'm now waiting for my second replacement. But the system itself is amazing, and the customer care is over the top helpful. I don't feel like I'm lesser than when I call them. They make me feel like a valued customer. Of course the system was a $2,000 purchase, so this little bit of Royal Treatment makes me highly recommend their warranty service. I love the 3800H. It's a beast. And I find myself wanting to add more speakers and more subwoofers to make the system rock the house. Takes a bit of help to set up, but always remember to plug in all your components before you turn this thing on. Never ever plug a speaker in while it's on. Any AI Will help you find speedy answers to some of the setup problems you will encounter. I bought this 2 years ago, and the price has not changed. That's how valuable this thing actually is. It's a high-end system, as opposed to a $500 basic amp. I just wanted to make sure that I had something that would last me my lifetime through speaker upgrades and additions. I highly recommend Denon, their warranty service, and the X3800H.

I had been excited for weeks anticipating upgrading to this receiver from Denon’s AVR-S570BT, but it was dysfunctional on arrival, repeatedly entering protection mode after operating for a few minutes and thereby being completely unusable. UPDATE: I decided to take a chance, purchasing a second unit after returning the first defective unit, and it works perfectly without issue so far. I’ve updated my rating accordingly, and am relatively forgiving of what may have been a matter of an issue slipping past quality control because I was refunded for my first purchase in full. I will update this review should my sentiment change.
