My old receiver was a Denon AVR-3300. When the DAC finally gave out after daily use for 14 years I had to buy a replacement of equal or better quality. I finally decided to buy an NAD T 758 which had a very solid reputation in the high end audio industry. To my surprise I found out that the sound quality was inferior compared to my old receiver. So I finally decided to return that receiver and find another. When I found out that this AVR-X3300W got a significant price drop I couldn't let it pass. I'm so glad I got it. I'm really happy with all the added features and decent sound quality. My old Denon receiver still had better sound quality but at least it wasn't as bad as the NAD. For me to get the equivalent sound quality of my old receiver the next model up would cost over $2000. So I'm very happy with this one. A very minute trade off in sound quality (unnoticeable to most people), but in exchange you get all the cool new features.Read full review

I had bought one of these new about 16 years ago for 750 dollars and it finally died about a week ago, after all those years of sounding amazing. So when I saw I could buy a used one for 60 dollars plus 43 dollars shipping it was a no brainer for me to get another one. It doesn't have HDMI but I don't care because I use a Harmony One remote and so I don't switch video through the receiver. I only use it for sound and it has plenty of digital audio inputs. The used receiver I got sounds as great as the original one and I expect to get at least a few years of use out of it before it shows any signs of issues.

This is an awesome receiver. The sound quality makes the cheaper units sound like transistor radios. Although it lacks the newer features like HDMI inputs, its Japanese components make this a great addition for mixing newer components with it for great sound quality. I am looking to purchase another one for my bedroom in the near future. It helps if you can purchase one with a remote control that works; these run around $100 used.
I've had my Denon AVR-3300 for several years now. Denon considers it a "legacy" product and doesn't actively support the unit but, hey, I've had no need to contact Denon for aftercare because this beauty has been ABSOLUTELY ROCK solid. My AVR-3300 has seen all the other components in my HT system get turned over during its tenure, simply because I've never considered replacing the receiver. It process DTS, DD and other source signals with absolutely flawless clarity. The advent of BlueRay and DVD-HD, with their HDMI connections, may very well persuade me to replace my AVR-3300, but one things for sure - its replacement will be a mid- to high-level Denon Audio/Video Receiver. I'm sold. DENON HT products can't be beat!
Have it in the basement to watch movies in the winter. Plenty of power and sounds fantastic!
