Denon AVRs support Audyssey, which is Denon + Marantz's room audio correction system. There are 2 different levels, Audyssey XT and XT32, with XT32 being the higher level. This is baked into the AVR, so it cannot be upgraded. It's definitely worth running, to see if the acoustics of your particular room can be taken into account. It can be switched on and off if you hate the results. The higher end models allow for 2 different calibrations to be stored in the AVR, so you can switch quickly between the 2.
In addition to the Audyssey calibration you perform through the AVR's UI, there is also an app, MultEQ, available on both Apple and Android. This is $20. It allows for a much higher degree of customization than the AVR alone. It probably is worth buying if you want to tweak the settings more reliably.
On top of that, there is a Windows app, MultEQ-X. This is a fair investment @ $199, though sometimes it goes on sale for $149. This allows a ton of customization. For example, with newer models, you can re-run a calibration just for a single speaker if you change it or even move it to a different location. This price is far cheaper than any of the DIRAC add-ons that are available for the higher-level AVRs.
Very importantly, the computer app is LOCKED to a specific AVR, and your Microsoft userid. So you cannot transfer it to another Denon when you upgrade. You cannot move it from your userid to another. It requires another purchase. The phone app is not locked and you may use it with any AVR.
The best tip I learned, after it was too late for me, is if you choose to purchase MultEQ-X, is to create a specific Microsoft userid JUST for that app and AVR. That way, when you sell it, you can throw that in as a carrot.
Hope this is useful for some here.

You would be paying for features you don't need and or use(ie object based codecs, 4 extra channels).
Since you only need 5 channels I would suggest looking for a slightly older AVR that includes features you need.
This will cost you much less and most likely a higher tier AVR.
Extra two channels & process 11,full 11 assignable preouts, XT32, Dirac Live option, 4 independent sub outs,sub EQ HT are some big differences.
Here is a good comparison.

With a 5.2.2 setup no reason to be looking at the 3800, it's overkill.

Does the 4800 or 6700 give you a benefit worth the higher price?
I would also suggest to wait until you actually need it, price may drop on whichever you choose by then.
