What's the difference between this model ASD51W and older Denon ASD3w? Does anyone know any other differences?

did you ever get an answer to this question? and do you know if you can stream itunes with either one?

the bitstreaming through optical on the a30 and the a35 should be the same. you SHOULD get better sound with the analog outs than with the optical with the discs that have truehd, since you cannot get truehd through optical. i'm about to upgrade from an a3 to an a35 because of the analog outs. i plan on getting a new receiver someday but am not sure when that will be and i want my truehd sound NOW. :-)

Hi, Onkyo support had us use 1141-0108-0400 firmware, I really hope it works for you, we still had interupted video signal. We even had our receiver looked at by a service tech. Unfortunately we have now been forced into a Denon model that actually is pretty great.

The 7030's D/A conversion is excellent. I hooked mine up to the analog inputs (>100db A s/n) of my recycled old 6.0 a/v receiver with 3 ft KabelDirekt RCA/RCA, a big $12 via Prime. Works great! Save your digital inputs for BD, etc.

That's a good point, theater environment vs home environment. In that case you would THINK that when they press the disc for home viewing they would remix the audio for that environment...I just got the AVR-591 last month, and I'm LOVING it. The only dislike so far is that the volume numbers are a bit small... I'm kind of OCD and have specific numbers I like for various uses of the receiver, LOL.

Dear E. Thanks for your inquiry. The X series of Denon receivers offers and upgraded Audyssey setup, a longer warranty, and other features that are designed for more custom installations. The same is true for comparing the AVRS900 and the AVRX1100. The AVRS900 has a few more inputs but does not have the upgraded Audyssey, the longer warranty and the detachable power cord. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

The Denon AVR- 1513 5.1 User Manual for U.S. only lists 120 V, 60 HZ. They probably have a European Model with the higher voltage.

i also can now. it was shipped to my house on saturday. i'm a little disappointed, i kinda wish i got the pioneer 919 for the upscaling factor. i had tabled it cuz it was a little out of my price range but about an hour after i bought the onkyo i noticed the pioneer was only 10 bucks more. oh well...thanks brad.

I have the denon 4520 and set up as 11X2.so 11speakers and 2 subwoofers.i have 4 dvd players 1 i use for netflix( ie never put a dvd in) a 6 disc dvd.,a all region dvd and a very high end bluray 3d dvd.plus a ipod player and cable box plus a satellite.i have done nothing with firmware and have seen no limitations.this probably doesnt help but i have everything working.with no problems.and a logitech remote .the touch pad obe so never need to use any of the 11remotes.also an sharp 80" 3d 480 tv.spectacular.

I think its a bad ad. There isnt any phono input on the back and when you look at Denon's site, it says the same, but under connectivity, it says it does not have a input. Looks like the AVR-3312CI has Phono Input.

I love my 876 also. But the news I heard is that the 876 and other 1.3 units cannot send 3d content. I love onkyo but have seen some 1.4v process by onkyo and made by denon and pioneer.

It would appear that this model is from the 2012 product line as the earliest review I have found for it was written in February, 2012, posted at wwwaudioholics.com. I have seen no product updates from Onkyo, so I am assuming this is the latest model. I replaced an earlier Onkyo model with this one several months ago and I am very happy with the results. I hope this info helps.

I haven't had any trouble with the receiver passing a 3D signal thru to my displays. Denon gives you an option to purchase additional warranty time beyond the initial 2 yr period. Instructions to do so are included in the box.

Both sound great. In my opinion the HK sounds slightly better. The power output difference is not what it seams (90w vs 75w), I'd wager if properly tested they are equal in power or the HK actually has a little more. HK is very conservative in their watt ratings and push higher amps than most. The HK seams to match well with the warm sound I like and my Paradigm speakers (older models w/ silk tweeters). The HK will be easier to set up if you don't have much experience. The Denon has more surround processing modes that you may or may not like. Sound is very subjective and depends on your room acoustics, your speakers, and most importantly your preferences. If you are using a Blu ray player that bitstreams the new uncompressed surround formats (Dolby Digital HD, DTS Master Audio), then they will both decode them for you. If you use a PS3 remember that it can't bitstream these HD audio formats, but must decode them internally and send them via LPCM. If you need a good speaker set check out the Energy Take Five Classics sold on Amazon for less than $600 last I checked. You are going to be happy with either unit. Good luck! ps. The included iPod dock with the HK is a really nice free addition if you have an iPod. If I had chosen the Denon, I would have bought their model dock eventually.

Hi, Onkyo support had us use 1141-0108-0400 firmware. It still produced interrupted video signal. We went as far as to have a service tech check the receiver. Unfortunately our long relationship with Onkyo has now ended and we have purchased a Denon unit that is lovely. Good luck to you.

The Owner's manual is available at Denon's site. You may wish to check it out.
