About Denon AVR-X4800H 9.4-Ch Receiver (2022 Model) - 8K UHD Home Theater AVR
Overall Feedback:
80% positive
83% were satisfied with the connectivity options, but 17% weren't
We can connect the cable signal into the TV and use the eARC signal for the audio via the existing HDMI connection as a cheaper solution suggested by the company.
We can install an EDID management device like HDFIX22, which costs around $250 on Amazon, between the TV and the receiver.
67% highlighted the user interface
I found the user interface mostly well done, but had to resort to checking the manual for a few things that weren't readily apparent.
89% were impressed with the power output, but 11% weren't
I love how the receiver has a lot of power for any need and makes my TV come alive with 4K upscale.
The overall weight of the stereo-receiver indicates a solid transformer that will produce all the power I need.
I noticed that the product has a little less power per channel than the one it is replacing.
The product has slightly less power per channel than the one it is replacing.
I suggest that the sound cutting out for 3-5 seconds while watching a movie or playing music could be due to a power issue.
71% found it compatible, but 29% didn't
I have found that the receiver works flawlessly with my XBOX series X using the one 8K input.
I am aware of the chip glitch that prevents getting the full 120hz with gaming consoles and have signed up to receive the free converter once it's available.
I faced issues with the audio setup and had to turn off EARC. I used digital optical for audio, Opt1 for streaming and XBOX, and Opt 2 for the PC.
The receiver loses audio signal periodically and does not work with Spectrum cable boxes. This behavior was not present in the previous receiver (Onkyo 3007).
