Strengths: Volume control that smooths out the loud commercials. Easy setup (for a Denon)
Weakness: None
This is my fourth Denon receiver, and it's the best. The Audyssey Dynamic volume control really works! We no longer have to grab the remote to turn down the volume because of loud commercials. This was a real problem in the past when watching HD channels. Setup was easy due to the automatic setup feature and the included microphone, which resulted in great equalization and sound. I did turn down...
Strengths: Many inputs/outputs; HDMI switching is great; plenty of power; auto-setup of speakers worked great.
Weakness: While three hdmi inputs are great - I've got them filled...
This is my first true AV receiver. I bought this Christmas along with a set of Onkyo speakers. GREAT sound! This replaced a fairly inexpensive HTIB system in my 12' x 30' family room. Wow, what a difference. There is so much more depth and detail to music, DVDs, even TV. Sorry, I'm no audiophile, so probably not enough technical detail for some of you, but for those looking for a great sounding...
THE GOOD: Three HDMI inputs; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; Sirius and XM-ready; upconverts analog signals to 1080p over HDMI output; automatic speaker calibration; decent video quality on upconverted video signals. THE BAD: Terrible remote; difficult setup; competition offers more HDMI inputs for less money; no graphical user interface. THE BOTTOM LINE: The Denon AVR-1909...

1st time Home Theather
Strengths: Excellent sound and picture, Auto setup works awesome. 3 HDMI input, HDMI pass thru. Easy setup (with some tricks)
Weakness: Don't look as cool as say a Harmon, no upscaling at HDMI signal, (so SD programming from my DVR don't get upscaled.) Difficult setup if you don't follow my instructions. not so good remote.
Ok 1st off, I was researching for a AVR for around $500 (got it here for $478 with a 25% off coupon code) The setup is hard if your just going off the manual. Use this thread to help you www.avsforum.com/avs-v... more importantly, this post www.avsforum.com/avs-v... This helped me to set mine up in under 2 hours including all wire connection and audyssey. The sound is awsome, it blew all my...
