Idk if this counts but Denon better avr have good dac
@katman Uh, no it doesn’t. What you’re proposing here is a $2500 AVR over a $5800 integrated stereo amp. No. Just…no. These two components are not in the same stratosphere and should never be mentioned in the same discussion. You’re a new member and welcome!!! But this tends to be a more serious audiophile forum and as such I’d suggest that for future responses you do a little more research to make more appropriate and useful recommendations or you won’t be taken seriously here, or worse. Glad you’re here, but u gotta kick it up a notch to be of real help. Hint: recommending an AVR in the amps-preamp forum is a definite no no but could well be welcome in the Home Theater forum. Don’t mean to be an arrogant douche but just trying to help as you go forward here. Or maybe I’m just a douche, but I really am just trying to help here.
