Denon 3910 vs Marantz Dv 9500...


Hey guys, anybody done any comparisons on these 2 units? Both are considered big hitters under $2,000. I'm curious as to how they stack up against each other, sound quality being a priority to me.

Thanks Rottenclam. My guess is probably a toss up on the 2. The universal player is certainly an appealing package. One wonders if some aspect isn't cheated however.
Thanks,

I've tested both....The Marantz is slightly (and I mean, SLIGHTLY) better in the audio dept, but Picture Quality goes to the Denon 3910 by KO. Given the price difference, this is a no brainer: Denon 3910 all the way....

if you want as close a Picture quality as the Denon, with improved Audio (take note that the 3910 is a SUPERB audio transport as is) then the Onkyo SP1000 is another contender, althoug that will run you $2000 as well.

You cannot go wrong with the 3910...is an impressive machine.
