Very hard to use,

This review is from: Denon AVR-3806 7.1 Channel Home Theater A/V Surround Receiver-Black (Electronics)
Apparently great sound and an excellent picture have a steep price. And that price is frustration.
This is the most difficult receiver to use ever built. I'm a network engineer who loves reading operating manuals and home theater is my passion. Forget about the casual user (wife, baby sitter, etc) getting the hang of this thing. How to change an option when I'm looking right at it is a challenge. The whole interface is inconsistant. It's like each section was programmed by different engineers in different countries. Want more examples? The Remote: To control the reciever (the most common use) you have to click some hard button on the remote to get the soft buttons to light up. Then you have to click the "amp" soft button. But you better not click it twice because then you are in a different mode and then you have to click it three more times to cycle back to the regular amp control mode. How do you know you are in a different mode? Only by subtle differences in what buttons are enabled. Try telling your wife, "you've clicked the amp button too many times and accidently entered 'system call' mode and erased all of the programmed frequencies and macros". This is a very real possibility with this remote. I could go on and on with the speaker binding posts being way to close together (too close for even my standard banana plugs), to the labeling of the inputs on the back, to the way you change the soundfield. This thing is user hostile. God forbid I ever have to set this thing up again.

AVR3806 5 star audio, 2star video, no star customer service,

This review is from: Denon AVR-3806 7.1 Channel Home Theater A/V Surround Receiver-Black (Electronics)
The fact that this thing is very difficult to figure out is very true, once set up the sound quality is really amazing. If you are getting this for HDMI switching like I did do some serious research on what it's compatible with my Comcast DVR and my MacMini will are not compatible with this thing and only sound and a flat green screen come thru. The Tweeter guys assured me that this would not be a problem as there was a hardware upgrade :( Furthermore I have been trying to reach Denon for 2 weeks by phone and email no one will respond!!!! Worst customer service I have ever experienced. I have to go in using component into the receiver to get the HDMI to work... For $5k worth of toys and a $100monthly cable bill this stuff should work the way intended!

Options .... you want option?,

This review is from: Denon AVR-3806 7.1 Channel Home Theater A/V Surround Receiver-Black (Electronics)
I will echo the prior review. I can be frustrating getting it setup and that is because it has So.. many options and you have to be sure that all of the settings right on each menu.
The 1st time I set it up was just to be sure it all worked and took a long time. Then we remodled the room. 2nd time it tok me about 20 min. to get all of the setting done. Also there is a settings lock feature so that you can't earase them from the remote. Your patience WILL be rewarded!!
