Just as soon as we can get one. The AVR-1909 is tested in the October issue (on sale Thursday), and we received that almost the same moment it arrived in the country. The AVR-2809 shouldn't be far behind.
Sure is. We're doing the AVR-2809 in the December issue (which goes on sale 13th November) but there's every chance it'll go on-line in advance of that.
I know its a bit early but im deperate to find out which amp has the best sound quality and video upscaling between the Denon 2809 and Yamaha DSP-AX863se?
Patience! We're working on it and the review will be published when we've spent sufficient time testing it... The Yamaha you can already read about here.
Why are you taking so long to review the Denon 2809 when it is available in the shops ? Does it decode DSD directly to analogue without internally converting to decimating LPCM .DSD has twice the resolution of LPCM
