well i just got off the phone from denon UK, my what a helpful bunch they aren't.
I explained that I needed audio delay and asked if they have a release date for the UK model, and an approx. street price.
This was one of the guys in sales btw. who i take it is responsible for getting his customers (mainly retailers) excited about forthcoming products.
Well apparently the 3803 is just a rumour !!!
just because there has been a 1603 and a 1803 doesnt mean that denon will design a 3803 !!
He doesnt think that there will be a 3803.
I explained that there were already .pdf's released detailing the units specs and that a couple of german retailers were expecting them in November/December
"Oh really ?? what differences are there ??"
WTF !!!! was he asking me for ???
I really do think that it is pretty poor that companies let people represent them and do not give them all the latest facts and gossip, so when asked about a product the can at least tell you as much as you know, rather than making said company look pathetic.
Ok so what other amps of that quality or higher have audio delay to compensate with video processing ??
I really was going to stick with Denon but I don't think they deserve the business, so if I find somthing else before the 3803 is released I will have a change, my brand loyalty hasd just gone down the pan.
