Hey all,
I am going to be looking to purchase a new receiver soon as my 3805 is out of date and am between two denons, the 3808 and the 4308. I am weighing the differences for $1000 and justifying if the later is worth the higher dollar.
I will be running a PS3 via HDMI 1.3a to the receiver to pass audio and 1080P video. The audio will be coming LPCM from the PS3. I was wondering about the AL24+ processing on the two receivers. I know Denon claims that LPCM is the trigger for AL24, but they claim only the stereo channels are affected. What about the surrounds and center channel? Also, if AL24+ is not on the surrounds would AL24 be there instead? All of the movies I have right now are only 96kHz audio, I don't have any 192kHz nor do I plan on buying any. When the audio is coming in from the PS3 at 5.1 LPCM or 7.1 LPCM would AL24 light up on both receivers or just the 4308? Anyone have this combo and seen this? I will be going to a best buy magnolia sometime soon to test this with HDMI if i could, just wondering if anyone had tried this yet.
Thanks,
Chris
