Can Denon 4308 Enhance your Home Theater Experience?
A wide-screen TV, a DVD player, and speakers are typical components of a home theater system.
People who enjoy complete surround sound from DVDs and HDTV broadcasts use up to seven speakers and a subwoofer to enhance the experience. You may not consider features such as Pro Dolby Digital or 7 point surround sound as being very important. But if you want to sit at home, and enjoy the ambience of a cinema, you will relish the above features. Again, this depends on where your house is located. If you live in an area where your neighbors might complain of the noise, the surround sound may prove a disturbance.
You could opt for a powerful system, provided you have a separate room. For a large room, you will need an 80 watt receiver. If you are a newbie owner of a home theater system, you can start with a small number of quality speakers, and add more later, along with a sub woofer.
You need a large screen HDTV model that delivers a quality image to enhance your movie watching experience. HDTV sets are available with different display resolutions such as 720p (1280 by 720 pixels), 1080i or 1080p (1920 by 1080), 1366 by 768, and 1024 by 768.
In order to create the surround sound experience of a movie theater in the privacy of your home, you should opt for a perfect combination comprised of front and left speakers, a center channel speaker, surround speakers and a subwoofer. You want to make sure that the various speakers work together, as a single unit, in cohesion. Merely buying speakers of a recognized brand or model might only insure that they individually deliver great sound, while not working as a cohesive whole.
If you wish to be hassle free, not having to worry about whether your receiver and speaker set match, then, a Home theater in a box (HTiB) system is just what the doctor ordered.
If you want a powerful, pure and complete home theater experience, opt for a Denon 4308. A Denon AVR-4308CI model has many features to enhance your enjoyment of high-end Denon audio/video performance.
These include a single unit that functions as an amplifier/ preamplifier/ control center, with a built-in DVD/ CD player or changer, a surround sound decoder that can decode all the major surround sound formats, including Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic II, six speakers, and wireless remote control, all incorporated into this system.
It comes with a versatile HDMI switching, wireless PC networking, a built-in HD Radio tuner, and flexible multi-room A/V options. It even includes Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding aimed at providing superior surround sound performance with high-def disc players and discs.
The 4308 receiver also supports digital to analog conversion for multi-zone applications and second zone component video output. Faroudja FLI2310 processing is used in 4308ci, which is found in the Oppo DVD players.
Denon offers two years warranty on parts and labor.
Decades of dominance have made Denon products synonymous with unquestionable quality among audiophiles. Denon are undoubtedly the world's foremost manufacturers of high-end audio and video equipment for professional studios and consumers.
Buying a Denon (including the Denon AVR 4308) from a reliable source does make a difference.

JL Audio Vs. Boston Acoustic and JBL Vs. Rockford Fosgate?
I always liked JBL as a sub company and even more after installing my 6x8's which deliverd GREAT thump at 60 watts RMS.But the time has come to turn it up a notch. When I went to the pro shop,I was told that Boston Acoustic G2 is just as good as JL Audio(but JL is hard to find for reasonable $ in canada so not an option)But he said the Boston is cheaper and just as good,true?.Then he said both those brands are way better than JBL.Now my friend works at Best Buy, so will deff. buy my subs there(50% off) but now JBL GTO or Rockford P2 maybe P3?I'm leaning rockford now because after comparing price to Max handling, peak and RMS ratings Rockford seems a much better bargain.Is my love-affaire with Rockford justifiable or is JBL better than Rockford?PS- I know A LOT about subs and companies already,so please only answer if you have experienced the subs I'm asking about or if it sounds like you know more than me & for 90% HipHop 10% techno better to go with one 12' or two 10's?
well, when i went to get my subs, i went in the store wanting to buy a JL 12w7, or 2 12w6's. thankfully i listend to the Boston G5 before i bought JL audio. it was a cleaner clearer more accurate sound. so i went in wanting JL audio and left with 2 Boston G5's. so needless to say, i think there better then JL audio. not to mention i saved some money. ever sinse i have been hooked on the Boston sound. its really awesome. as far as the G2, it too is a great sub. it pretty much has the same sound as the G5, but its not as loud, and doesnt hit as hard. but it still hits pretty hard. as far as the JBL subs, i really cant tell you, cause i've never heard a JBL sub. but the Rockfords, i think sound like butt. there more for pounding then sounding good. check out Boston dude, you'll love what you'll hear.
good luck
