    Choosing between the Denon X8500H, X6700H, X4700H and X3700H (Updated)

    The power differences between the X8500H, X6700H, X4700H and X3700H are about 1dB. If the requirement is for an AVR with only the internal amplifiers used, and with the number of power amplifiers that the X3700H or X4700H provide, then the lower price products provide a little cleaner power with...

    A Really Valuable Graph from the X6700H Updated Measurements

    The following graph from the Denon X6700H updated measurements is very valuable in understanding the performance of Denon AVR's and other AVR's and AVP's as well. One of the major challenges in design of an AVR/AVP is volume control for a large number of channels. There is also a related issue...
