I am contemplating about getting the Denon 3803 and connect it to an external amplifier. This setup will run me about $1,800. At the same time, a Denon 4802R costs $2,000, only $200 more. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience/heard of the difference between Denon 3803 with an external amp and Denon 4802R? I intend to use the setup for 60% music and 40% movies.
I know that 3805 will be available soon and I'm guessing it will sound similar to 3803. If 3803 runs out of stock, I can wait a few weeks and get the 3805. My main concern is that the 4802R is only $200 more than the 3803/amp combo. I'm interested to know if the combo will sound better. Or, the 4802R has good enough features and performance that is better off to spend the extra $200.
The Denon 4802 has been around for about two years and it seems like a newer version (with newer features... possibly HDMI switching?) will be coming out soon if 3805 is scheduled to be out next month. Any words about the next iteration of 4802R?
