Is there ANYONE here on the forum who would like to convince me to reconsider the Denon 5803?
I was waiting for 5803, but after considering their $4300 MSRP and no warranty when buying online (i.e. not paying MSRP), I've changed my mind. No more Denons for me until they change their warranty policy.
Another point is that the steep price you are going to pay for 5803 is hardly justified. Most of it goes not directly to sound quality, but rather to paying THX certification fees. The fancy but hardly usable Atkis remote also adds quite a bit to the price. Also, they sneakily dropped all wordings from their 5803 ads about the unit's future upgradeability, so I'm assuming they are not going to upgrade 5803 in the future.
