So and now to the point deductions:
- The calibration and automatic detection of the speaker (especially polarity) is not only bad, but grottig! At 5 times calibration 3 different "wiring errors" came out. All speakers were connected correctly! This is even worse than the X4000, which had only one error. From the comments of the "super reviews" Siehr you that this apparently had to find other users.
- The great Remote App. I can only speak of the iPad / iPhone, but shows again that Denon is still not taking the issue seriously right. As with X4000er it is still not possible, or alter all settings and configurations about.
- Connecting a laptop / computer via HDMI or DisplayPort. I have connected a total of 3 different laptops and computers to the 2 HDMI inputs. It was the same picture as bein X4000er. Only if the resolution is scaled down to 720p, you get a sharp picture. For comparison, I then tested my old x3806 and in which there were no problems.
To put it in a nutshell. Denon met not nearly the quality that I expect from a 1300 device.
Addendum. 1
Denon himself describes "Auro-3D is a groundbreaking 3D sound format for your home theater. With Auro-3D, the listener is immersed in a cocoon of sound, which gives him the feeling of being part of the action" .... For this reason delivers Denon This format also not with but does it offer in December for 149. Denon .... Let's see what Yamaha has so currently on offer.
