FS: Denon AVR-3801 AV Surround Receiver
Within the past year Ive completely upgraded my surround sound system to components (and Polk LSi speakers) and now have no need for the Denon receiver.
The receiver is in perfect condition and would be an excellent low cost home theater starter receiver for someone getting into home theater surround sound for the first time (or an upgrade for a lessor receiver). I have everything that shipped with the receiver including the remote, manual, and box.
Features:
Digital Surround Sound Decoding (Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS NEO:6)
Wide screen mode for a 7.1-channel sound even with 5.1-channel sources.
24 bit/96kHz sample rate Digital to Analog Conversion (DAC)
Dual Surround Speaker Mode
Component Video Switching
7.1-channel analog audio input along with 7.1-channel pre-amp outputs (I used the Denon as a pre-amp for a year before replacing it with a dedicated pre-amp)
Specifications:
Power Amp rated output: 105 watts per channel (8 ohms, 20Hz ~ 20kHz with 0.05% THD)
Analog Frequency Response: 10Hz ~ 100kHz: +0, -3dB (Direct Mode)
Signal to Noise Ratio (S/N): 102dB
Dynamic Range: 96dB
MSRP (new): ~ $1200
My price (used): $250 plus actual shipping cost (lower 48 states)

Dear Polkmaniac and Warlocks1,
Im between a rock and a hard spot trying to determine which one said, Ill take it first.
Polk Audio has always been fair to me and I would like to be fair to the members here. Polkmaniac posted first but then edited his post after Jeff committed to buy the receiver. I didnt see his original unedited post and cant determine if it simply requested pictures of the receiver. Can you clear this up for me so I can know whos on first?Best Regards, Cliff -

Polkmaniac showed interest first.....obviously since he wanted to see pictures. I'm pretty sure that the first person showing an actual interest in the item gets first dibs. Your call I guess, but I feel it's Polkmaniacs first based on our 'unwritten system'. Not like days went by before he said he wanted it. -
definitely Polkmaniac. If he changes his mind, let me know. Thanks

Jeff,
Thank you for clearing that up for me. I know how easy it is to get in a pissing contest on this forum if things dont go the way some think it should.Best Regards, Cliff -
