The sound is amazing on this unit, but oh... the SETUP!! The wiring on the back isn't the bad part, it's figuring out how to program this BEAST! There is no more "spin to the left" for left channel or right for right channel, no preset buttons for AM/FM and no push button selectors for function. It's super-digitized, everything is a pull down menu with on-screen selections. Also, setting up "Zone 2" is annoying. Right out of the box, the last set of speaker plugs (7.1) are pre-set to Zone 2. Why? You have to tell it NOT to be there, and assign it. It's frustrating, but the pay-off is worth it. Stunning, powerful sound. I'd give it 5 stars, but the remote prevents me from doing that...TOUGH ONE. Also, don't think you can go HDMI in and component video out (I have a slightly older plamsa with no HDMI) It cannot be done. BUT, all the things i have trouble with on this unit, do not take away the end result: Earthshaking power and clarity. Just be prepared to call customer service

I was apprehensive about the trouble I would have setting this up since we have an earlier Denon at my father's beach house. No one can figure out how to configure the Denon in the beach house. (sorry, I don;t know the model number).
This one.... on the other hand, was quite easy to set up. This is the least expensive Denon that uses full hdmi switching including audio. Many of the receivers in the $500 range from yahama and pioneer don';t. Don't buy them. Setting up components with HDMI out (most new equipment does this) is a breeze. Setting up the audio profile was a breeze with the auto set up. I am really pleased with the sound, the flexibility etc. My 14 year old can easily use the system without getting confused .

After a major house renovation, we set up a home-theatre system with built-in Parasound speakers (5.0 surround...still need to buy that subwoofer!), the Denon AVR2308ci A/V Receiver, a Sony 52KDLXBR4 LCD TV (1080p), two TiVo DVR/DVDs, VCR and a Slingbox. We did have a professional do all the wiring, and install/hook up the Denon, and I'm very glad we did.
The receiver connects to the TV through HDMI, and the TiVos connect into the receiver through component video and digital audio for the highest-quality signal possible. I will be upgrading one of the TiVos to a TiVo HD soon, and can't wait to see how the picture looks. At some point when the DVD wars settle out, I'll buy an HD DVD player too. But for now, everything works well with regular low-definition input sources.
The receiver also has a lot of other capabilities which we are not using (e.g., audio and gaming). It has more inputs than you will probably use.
It also comes with a full-functioning remote control. But if you're
