Denon AVR485S av receiver (1 Viewer)

[George V]

Has anyone had any experience with this receiver. I'm looking for an economical one. I can get it factory reconditioned from Denon for about $190. I do not want to spend more than $200 and would like to get a silver unit as well.

I am also looking at the Onkyo SR302 and Yamaha HTR5730. Seems like the Denon is a better unit... Comments?

thanks for your time...

I just installed one of these in a house w/ JBL inwalls.
The speakers are 87 db efficiency and they are easily powered to too loud. It's an impressive little receiver.
When you buy refurbed I rec'd you ask Denon or whoever what the reason was for return and the work done. Also, be clear on the length of the manufacturer's warranty.
