Nice, Denon makes good stuff. I've got a dedicated 2 channel system too and for audio I prefer it, but a good theater receiver can do pretty impressive things.
..just discovered a new way to listen to Spotify via the Denon AVR 3100.. much better than blutoothe. If you get a premium subscription, you can send the music over the wifi link ....sounds better and is more stable than blutoothe.
I listen to SiriusXM online via wi-fi with my Onkyo receiver, and it sounds dang good, for a 128kbps stream. I don't understand how it can sound as good as it does, but it's nice to just listen to all the channels without having to get up off the couch!
I had to exchange this Denon to Crutchfield. There were many connection problems I couldn't get passed. It would forget settings, drop blutoothe, unable to connect to wifi, etc. I love the unit, but this is an achilles heel. I hope they invent a fix for it. They are sending me a Yamaha.....we'll see.
