I have been using a Denon AVR3300 Receiver now for 4 months as the heart of my home cinema system and have found it a great performer. The sound is very comparable to my old Technics HiFi amp, even with pure CD Audio.

The Amp has plenty of power, good frequency range and seems to suit my TDL floorstanding speakers. I use a B&W centre speaker and Paradigm sub. AR-8 rears make up the full complement.

Only niggles are:
- Complex programming
- No digital out
- Could do with 2 more video in sockets
- Poor remote control (ugly)

For £600 (if you shop around) I think it is a good value amp for the quality and performance.
