@@Youthman Thanks for all you do for us out here. There's always a "new guy". I keep offering free help, but no takers. Must be because I don't own 6 figure HT. Oh well, real busy repairing welding machines anyways. ATB and great day Mr. S.
@@Youthmancan you try this in pre amp mode in your theater room with your amplifier and see if the sound is comparable to your marantz pre amp? Run the room correction as well audyssey and or Dirac then level match your speakers. That would be REALLY nice if you can do that!!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 I’m thinking about getting this receiver in the near future!
may I ask, with this setup, it is thus not possible to watch Apple TV with just the TV speakers, is that correct? you have to turn on the amplifier every time? or is there a diff way to setup if you want to also have the option to only use the TV?
Mr. Stevens, You must have so much fun trying out some of this great gear. If only I was so lucky. Please have a great day and all the very best to you and yours.
Thanks Kevin. I believe in making your own luck. It has taken me five years to film and edit myself, the 723 videos on my channel. It’s a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to produce each video but I certainly love my job and am grateful to have a small part in furthering the Home Theater Community. Have a great week Kevin.
I just received the X4800H and have a couple of issues with it. First, the subwoofer setup in Audyssey does not work. The on screen setup tells you to turn up the subwoofer to 75db but it stays at 30db on screen no matter how high the volume is in the subwoofer. Secondly. I get frequent audio drops that are only a split second while watching TV on the ARC. I will return it if Denon doesn’t have a fix. BTW, it is running the latest firmware.
I get my new Denon amp the same as yours next week. You’ve just saved me £50 installation fee. Thank you . I could easily now do that myself piece of cake. ☺️
Great video as always youthman. I am looking to get either the x3800 or the x4800 but the x4800 is $600 more expensive. Is it worth it and why. Any info from personal experience or otherwise is appreciated. Thanks
Do you need a smart tv for this set up? I have this basic 2 speaker set up with a Denton reciever and a Samsung tv that’s not a smart tv and I can’t get it to connect, not sure what I’m doing wrong, I am only using 1 HDMI cable, not understanding what your second one is for?
To this day, I am still confuse on how to setup this denon with my shield. It keeps turning on zone 3 for a reason, trouble with cec as well, still working on it since 2 weeks now

On the specs sheet the receivers seems it does not support QMS, do you know if it will be available later on through firmware update? I have the new Apple TV that supports that but not shore if it will be useless if I plugged in through the receiver
Hello, I just bought a denon x1700h plug into my samsung qled, and the conaole is plug in to the tv also. I have a question why is my main zone set to game not tv audio? And when I turn on netflix it only says Dolby Sorrund not D+ S+ like my old marantz nr1607? And i cant go with passthrough now with denon
Hello sir,after resetting my x2800 denon,I cant find in speakers menu->manual setup the speaker configuration to change front speakers from large to small,how can I fix it;
You’re correct it is a 9.4 AVR. I didn’t realize I said 9.2 in this video. If you jump to 1:18 in the next video I made, th-cam.com/video/PXCyMx4Muds/w-d-xo.html I mentioned the X4800H and I stated it correctly as a 9.4 AVR. I have updated the title of this video, description and pinned comment. Thx for letting me know I stated it incorrectly in this video.
im having issues with the Xbox series X with the mirantz cinema 50, with hand shake issues, when i exit a game it is saying no signal detected. and i am using high level hdmi cables.. would this denon have the same issue? i am so frustrated right now
Hello youthman the usb mode random/shuffle mode is gone after the early updates in the 3800 version. Shuffle was also in the 4700 not working properly but it is always important for me when listening music. Really a missed option for some people with that kind op money spend when buying denon! Small things make a world great... how's that with the 4800?
I have to criticize this video. If you're anyway showing the details like menus etc you might as well simulate a situation with all possible speakers and types of setups you COULD have done with that receiver. Why limit it to 3 speakers just because you only have 3? Thumb down.
I do find that a bit amusing for the “thumbs down” considering Denon makes it absolutely a no-brainer when you boot it up for the first time and it ask you do you have this speaker yes or no and you tell it whether you have it or not. I’m all for making videos that are easy for anyone to follow and understand. But that’s one of the major benefits of Denon and Marantz. They make it really a no-brainer to choose what your speaker layout is. They even show you pictures.
@@Youthman I've been fiddling with my own home cinemas for over 15 years... so trust me when I say I wasn't here for the "guide" you provided. So back off with that condescending tone, another recommendation. My comment is from me to you and to help you make more fruitful videos. I'm simply just saying don't do the setup that simple just because you only had 3 speakers in the room. Simulate a full setup, because then maybe even I could have had use of your video. I wanted to see how Denon has set up their flexibility in switching on and off internal amplifiers and how that was integrated in their UI. I won't explain why.
@trancer256 I realize not every video I make will meet everyone’s needs. The purpose of this video was to provide a demonstration of a simple setup. Exactly what was promised in the title. There’s nothing condescending about what I shared. Denon makes it incredibly simple on how to set it up in any configuration. The UI walks you through each speaker asking if you have them, how many there are and where you have them located in your room with a visual representation. Turning off internal amplification and enabling Preamp Mode would happen after the initial set up and wouldn’t follow under the Simple Setup of this video.
that's not 9.4 pls correct the title 9.4 means L and R speaker, Centre, side, rear, high front, high side, high rear and 4 separate subwoofer pls correct the title its misleading
Youthman going back to the basics. Very cool.
Always providing a mix so there is something for everyone. I never want to leave out the "new guys".

If you ever get a chance to make a comparison video, I’d love to know how the X4800H sounds compared to its cousin, the Marantz Cinema 50.
The cousin would be C40
@@ekjellgrenWhich can easily be overlooked considering their price policies.

I have the 3800H and set up to 5.2.6 the 6 height speakers really make a difference to my ears especially with Auro 3D turned on!!!
Does it matter which AVER you choose if youre planning on using it as a pre amp and getting a dedicated amp for each channel?
I get my new Denon amp the same as yours next week. You’ve just saved me £50 installation fee. Thank you . I could easily now do that myself piece of cake. ☺️
3800h runs really hot, how with 4800h, doest stay cool or heats as hell like 3800h?
Great video as always youthman. I am looking to get either the x3800 or the x4800 but the x4800 is $600 more expensive. Is it worth it and why. Any info from personal experience or otherwise is appreciated. Thanks
Get x4800h when on sale.
Looks awesome Michael
When or are you doing a full review of the denon avr-x4800h?
I will but have several other reviews ahead of it.
Any update on your review?
I’m WAY behind in reviews due to the 5 events I attended over the past 4 months.
Do you need a smart tv for this set up? I have this basic 2 speaker set up with a Denton reciever and a Samsung tv that’s not a smart tv and I can’t get it to connect, not sure what I’m doing wrong, I am only using 1 HDMI cable, not understanding what your second one is for?
Do you like the x4800 better than the LX505?
Hey Michael, what is that stand for the mic? I have a mic stand but I have no ideal how to hold the Audyssey mic on it.
Thanks, I was looking at this one and it clarifies a few things
To this day, I am still confuse on how to setup this denon with my shield. It keeps turning on zone 3 for a reason, trouble with cec as well, still working on it since 2 weeks now

Hello sir,after resetting my x2800 denon,I cant find in speakers menu->manual setup the speaker configuration to change front speakers from large to small,how can I fix it;
Its a 9.4 receiver. It has 4 independent subwoofer outputs. How could you miss that? 🙂
You’re correct it is a 9.4 AVR. I didn’t realize I said 9.2 in this video.

Is it capable of Dirac Live Bass Control and Dirac Live ART?
Although it is a 9.4 reciever. Is it possible for me to install height speakers to make a 5.1.2 set up?
yes
How does it play in stereo?
How do I get back to the set up menu system?
im having issues with the Xbox series X with the mirantz cinema 50, with hand shake issues, when i exit a game it is saying no signal detected. and i am using high level hdmi cables.. would this denon have the same issue? i am so frustrated right now
Another great vid like usual🍿
Thank you Danny
Only a pair of front speakers, do not need AVC, just keep playing AVR?!

Small things make a world great... how's that with the 4800?
How do you setup 7.1.4 system with this avr?
Since it only powers, nine speakers, you would need a two channel amplifier to power the other two
@@Youthman does it have to be a 2 ch Amp? Could I have a 3ch Amp for my LCR and power the rest?
Yes, that would work to you just need to offload at least two of those channels because the AVR’s can only power nine speakers
@@Youthman 👍
really nice unit
Full review coming in the future❤
Yes. Editing the Definitive Technology review today and will go live tomorrow.
It looks similar to the mid to late 2000's Denon receivers.
Yes they haven’t changed much in design. Marantz FINALLY updated their design with the new Cinema series.
Still rocking the 4200

Hi Chris, you might want to do a bit of research - www.denon.com/en-ca/product/av-receivers/avr-x4800h/300608-new.html. It's indeed a 9.4ch AVR.
