Wish the manual that came with the 3805 was as good as your review. Did sell me on it though....

At least your review did not go blundering on about the beauty of the remote. Made me puke every time I leafed through WHAT-HIFI, or AREADVD, or all these other follow-the-leader imposters and saw the picture.
Well done!

If I don't win the drawing for the 3805 you better send my twenty bucks back!

Great review. I just can't make up my mind between the AVR-3805 and the RX-V2400. A shoot-out between the two would be great I think I'm leaning towards the Yammie though.

Default Review the review
The review was perfect, much better than what you can find in magazines.

I had same experience with the Automatic setting of parameters.

It worked ok for distance and level, actually it was extremely exact. I discovered that one of the tweeters had been damaged, the dome was inputted, after taking it out the dome, then was the levels almost exactly the same.

But the parametric eq settings did not work at all, it suggested strong and quite narrow peaks for some frequencies. I know that my speakers does not have such problem. So it's overcompensating.
Itried several different position of microphone but it did not help

Maybe you should wait till you see our Cedia coverage in a few weeks. Your decision making may get harder/easier
