This makes a really nice center piece to build your home theater system with.I got mine in December 2008.It is very easy to set up and if one needs the directions, they are well written.Loads of inputs on the back!!The Denon AVR-888 has a built in program that calculates all of the speaker distances and delay algorithms to achieve the highest possible performance.It even evaluates the room size and echo.It comes with an external microphone that one moves through the room to sample 6 different ...

Rating: - Great receiver
I'm not a home theater expert by any stretch of the imagination.When planning our home theater, we borrowed ideas from the setups of 2 friends.One of my friends had an older model that is similar to this one so I decided to purchase this one.
Am very happy with the purchase.We are using this system to take the input from our Playstation, iMac, cable TV, DVD and radio and output the video to a 720p projector in our home theater room and speakers in 2 zones.I love how the receiver upconverts ... Read More

Denon AVR 888 brings a whole new awlsome digital sound comparing to my previous analag receiver. Since I saw many Review comments that the instruction and the remote features can be confusing, so I spent a little time ahead to read the manual and familiarize with the remote and the receiver features.Then I spent a little time on the surround sound set up but the outcome is rewarding. After all, I am very happy with the receiver and the price I paid for at Amazon.com

Denon AVR-888 provides great sound due to its robust multi power supplies.HDMI carries sound.Built-in upconversion can be selected to up-convert all analog video to 1080p with no noticeable color distrotion.
Set up is not as difficult per some reviews if you follow the manual step-by-step.
It is my first Denon and the 888 is now discontinued and replaced by a new model. I bought it from Amazon at a great sale price.

- Unable to set up receiver
This item appears to take a rocket scientist to figure out the instructions and to setup in operational mode.Thus, in remains in the box on the shelf until further help arrives. I had a helper, who is quite able in electronics, who could not get it workings either.I do not recommend this receiver for the average person to purchase.
