    Refurb Denon Avr-3803

    Ok, maybe somebody can help me out. I have a DVD player and XBox hooked up to our 3803 through component inputs. One component output is then sent to the TV. I can change inputs using the top left knob on the receiver, but how do I use the remote to change inputs? I can't for the life of me...

    Refurb Denon Avr-3803

    I ordered on Nov. 17 and received mine today. Now, if only I could figure out how to control the damn thing with the remote. This receiver is much more complicated than our old H/K AVR25II. Sound quality is very good coupled to Definitive speakers. Thanks for the information from this thread. I...

    Old Receiver to Denon 3803 Questions?

    I ended up getting a Sony 60XBR950. Unfortunately, it's backordered until mid-December, so I can't comment on how I like it in our house.

    Harman Kardon Wattage

    Most people on car enthusiast boards say that BMW horses are a little stronger than other manufacturers. ;) With that in mind, are H/K receivers underrated? Are H/K Watts a little bigger than others? For example, how does the power of a H/K receiver amplifier compare to that of other manufacturers?

    Old Receiver to Denon 3803 Questions?

    Can anybody comment on how the two receivers compare? Specifically, if both receivers were sold today and had the same decoding capabilities, would the 3803 be a notch above, below, or the same as the H/K AVR25II? Thanks again for your help.

    Old Receiver to Denon 3803 Questions?

    I posted this over at AVSForum, but haven't gotten much of a response, so I figured you guys may be able to help me out. I currently own a H/K AVR25II which I bought about 6 years ago. I use it for 70/15/15 TV/XBox/DVD. The AVR25II only decodes Dolby Pro Logic, and if I remember correctly...
