Damn. I bought it at $1700 a month or two back. Granted that's still a good price, but not as slick as this.

I have to say though, this is a solid unit. Supports all the good stuff like 4K@120Hz, all of the inputs are 8K@60Hz, supports up to four subs in case you want to knock your house off its foundations, ALLM, QMS are supported on all inputs... and I have to say, I have been very impressed with the Auro-3D upmixer. Literally for the first time, I can actually tell my upfiring Atmos speakers are doing something, and you definitely notice the difference between Auro-3D and the Dolby and DTS upmix modes. I have a pretty crap room layout and the Audyssey room correction did an impressive job. Not sure if it's the 4800 or the new sub I got at the same time, or maybe a little of both, but the vocal track on everything is so much easier to hear now. I don't have to set the center channel reference volume to 4-5dB higher than everything else just to be able to make out what people are saying and I can hear little nuances in videos that I was missing before.

Only real downsides I can think of have nothing to do with the audio quality. The remote still sucks just as hard as any other remote from Denon over the past several years. If anyone has figured out how to use Alexa or Google Home to change to Game 1 or Game 2 inputs, please tell me because I cannot figure it out for the life of me--other inputs work just fine, only those two don't work. The setup UI is only a mild refinement from my old 2200W and is still pretty clunky.
Great price, I bet most people picked up the X3800H for $1,000.
Receivers literally go on sale every fall (with the exception of COVID/supply chain years).

For about 15 years straight, Denon receivers would go at least 50% off at Fry's (RIP).

Thanks! Ordered!

Kept considering the upgrade for Dolby Vision and 120hz to work through receiver... This price pushed me over the line.

Damn I don't need to replace one but this is what I would get. It would be a debate on replacing an old but very good 1913 in my basement surround or my main TV with a 3800 or maybe it's a 3600 from about 8 years ago. Both sound good still and I'm not running anything more than 5.1 so I should save my $.

Or because chip supply is finally catching up with demand?

This is nice. Made in Japan like the higher end models.

Yep. I really needed to replace my x3400 and went with the $1k x3800. But I would have jumped on this one if it was an option.

Could partially be a supply chain thing. Maybe Denon is overbought on chips and is looking to move inventory, but I'm betting demand is down b/c recession. If anything, it's probably a mix of the 2

Great price, this should go pretty quickly!
This is the one to get & easily competes with even the new Onkyo/Pioneer models IMO!

I also did but my threshold for this is/was $1200 since I use my AVR as a pre pro.

I sure did. And I'm extremely happy. And don't regret waiting for this.

No buyers remorse for people who probably got the $999 x3800 in the last few adorama sales. I highly doubt you can tell the difference between the DACs in the 3800 vs 4800 and its "reduced jitter." Besides a couple extra features and inputs, this is really only worth the extra $400 if you think you're an audiophile with a golden ear and you really need that bogus extra 25w per channel wattage (doubtful). If you're using the x3800 as a pre/pro and already have external amplification, that price for a unit with audyssey xt32 and dirac potential, plus full pre-outs is a no brainer.

What would be some benefits to replace an AVR-X4300h with this model? 8k seems to be a ways off from mainstream. Just curious if there are audio features that make this worth the upgrade.
