Offering remarkable value, the 3808 is the second in Denon’s new 08 range and shares many of the key features of the £2000 AVR-4308.
This is the latest in Denon’s classic mid-price 3800 series and features Denon’s new ‘wave’ style industrial design, heavyweight battleship build and outstanding picture and sound quality.
In designing for the HD era, Denon’s engineers have rethought everything. The new audiophile chassis shortens signal paths, minimises vibrations and prevents audio, video and digital circuits from interfering with each other.
Easier to use than ever before, with a new photo-real graphical interface and ergonomic control layout, it also has better sound quality than any previous Denon 3800 AVR, greater ease-of use, and total connectivity.
