You are trolling right!? They have been about for over 100 years!
They tend to have a warmer sound than many other brands. Their sister brand (Marantz) tend to have a livelier sound. Sony's tend to sit more in the middle. I grew up listening to NAD audio equipment so the slightly smoother sounding Denon is more my thing.

Am quite tempted by the AVRX2200w as need 2 HDMI out (TV and projector) and the 4k upscaler would come in handy in the future. But then I would want new speakers, new cables and room redecorated so better not!

We are still part of the EU. So nothing.

So , who received their's and what do you think?

This is back down to £285 (€399) not as cheap as before but a lot better than most places

Seems I have been lucky then. Picked mine up from local PO last Thursday after Royal Mail tried to deliver Wed 25th!

German courier was DHL, who then used Royal Mail here in the UK. Was surprised to see that the amp was sent in its original Denon box.. ie. Not sent in usual Amazon box.

Yodel gets my vote for worst delivery company ever. A recent Amazon purchase was just chucked over my locked gate - no card put through the door! A day later I checked the tracking information which said it had been delivered. Hunted around and found a very wet Amazon parcel, which had been out in the rain for nearly 24 hours :confused:

Just agreeing with you.
I too have been having no arrivals lately when it states out for delivery. I even had a refund the other day before the item even had a chance to get across the channel as I live in France. No explanation just a return/refund and yet the tracking continued to the out for delivery.

Thanks for the vote of confidence lol.

Amazon logistics, yeah good luck with that.

Well the tracking shows it as out for delivery.

Courier is 'Amazon logistics'.

Amazon chat couldn't tell me which courier is used.

The tracking starts with Q1....

Like i say whenever my amazon orders say 'OUT FOR DELIVERY' and are not delivered that day, they never turn up at all.

Well my delivery didn't turn up, despite it saying its out for delivery today. Amazon UK can't talk about the order, they said i need to speak with amazon.de and my German isn't the best, however managed to speak to amazon.de who said i must be a little more patient, even though its 8.15pm here. I've already had 2 missing parcels from Amazon this month, so i don't expect this to actually turn up now. Whenever it says its out for delivery but doesn't turn up that day then usually it never turns up.

if anybody is interested the avr x2200w can be had for £399 delivered here

mine is expected Monday too.

"Delivery has left the logistics center and is on the way."

Mine is expected 30th Nov too

Now £299 + free delivery at Superfi via Amazon UK

First time using this site. Spotted this & have just ordered. Thanks everyone for all the comments which really helped me make my decision. There were 5 left for delivery within a few days, however by the time I came to pay they had sold out, so delivery is now 4th Dec. All good things comes to those who wait...

Yep.Expired now. It was a deal of the day.Sometimes they get repeated if your lucky.

Just got myself the B&W my-60d set was thinking of buying this amp gutted missed it.

Must have sold out, back up to 460 Euros

No good spot. No mention in the specs or the whathifi review

Yes i edited it as someone already mentioned it being a 7.2 system. Good feature to allow 2 subs but i guess only good if your living room is the size of a football field.

Bought. Many Thanks!

for those after more inputs and outputs this has 7 inputs and 2 outputs it's pioneer at £400

I had a flippin inkling that was the case thanks but I kept asking myself 'how much difference will two more speakers make?' has anyone heard an atmos setup?

can anyone recommend the best value 7.?.? atmos setup (speaker/sub package) ready to just add to this, I had a look at a 5.1.2 but it only actually had 2 atmos speakers (£270ish on one of the amazon's) thanks

Thanks again pal! :smiley:

No problem, I wouldn't recommend using speakers from an older all in one system either if that's what your doing? If your on a budget i'd have to recommend looking at the Tannoy TFX 5.1 package, for 200 notes you cant go wrong.

as much as i like it
i think this is too much for what i need
not interested in bluetooth or wifi (I use sonos for music), i only have weeny crappy panasonic speakers
can't help thinking this is overkill for my needs
would really like the sonos soundbar, but that's silly money :/

Thanks :smiley:

Can see the sub woofer outs on this pic:
my (broken) panasonic has a two wire sub woofer connection as per every other speaker. This looks different.
Anyone know how I would connect my old sub woofer to this amp? Thanks.

Not a bad looking reciever for the price, it's a bit short on HDMI ports though, only 1 HDMI out as well which is a shame.

What are the main differences between this and the AVRX2100?

You answered your own edited question then? It was in fact a good question and others may not realise that you can use 1 or 2 subs with this unit. The idea of 2 subs is to give smoother and better bass across a larger listening area.

Cheers guys.

Cant see a dedicated active subwoofer connection? Can anyone confirm if it has one or not? i see the antennas are obscuring a couple connections at the top

Are the TANNOY HTS101XP a decent set of 5.1 speakers to use with this?

Will this amp detect the sound from multiple sources and choose the correct encoding ?

Still rocking my Denon AVR3802 from 2003, paid £700 back then. is this a worthy upgrade in sound quality? I have managed without HDMI all these years.

would a normal UK kettle plug fit this? looks a little different (?)

suitable upgrade to my denon 1909?

Heat op

That's what we thought, our old one had been dying for a while so been looking around, when that one came up we couldn't not buy it! Already had to buy a new subwoofer as it needs its own power supply and I know it won't be long before my husband wants to replace the old speakers too but it's so much better than what we had, the 4K upscalings made the picture a lot better too

thank you, might get this then cheers

ther is a pair of Onkyo Atmos speakers for EUR100.54 from amzon spain but are currently temporarily out of stock.

http://www.amazon.es/Onkyo-SKH-410-Sistema-altavoces-sistema/dp/B00O8LANJA

We bought this for £185 from richer sounds a few weeks ago (ex display), it's a brilliant unit and sound is amazing even using our old surround sound systems speakers. Couldn't find it for under £400 at the time so this is a bargain for a great unit

What about the dtsx does this require specific speakers? Any one know? From what I gather dtsx is far more flexible in terms of speaker arrangement etc. Only prob I can see is that no films are currently using dts over atmos.

want to get onboard with Atmos but it's the two you need in the ceiling that is the problem

Thanks. Is this a good brand? Do they offer warranty in the UK or do we have to ship it back to Germany / China if things go wrong? On second thoughts it's probably wise to go for something fom Sony or Panasonic.

Wouldn't it need a transformer?

Thank you so much, I have been on the look out for a Yamaha or Denon AVR for around £250....sold!!

Hi - How much is the shipping or should it come free shipping ?

I regard Denon highly and this looks quite a bargain

I always thought buying receiver and speakers was a better deal. thanks for the amp.
Can someone help me which kind of speakers would I need to take advantage of this receivers` potential.

Cheers to the OP - ordered

How much is import duty for these?

excellent price

Will this come with a UK plug? Or a German one? This is a great deal.

Amazing price such a top spec as well.

UK prices are rip off Britain prices, wunderbar to Deutschland , you can't go wrong with a Denon, had Denon products for 30 years.
