"Sits at the Head of Its Class"

The AVR-X2800H won a top rated of Five Stars from England's What Hi-Fi? magazine in a October 12, 2022 review."

"The AVR-X2800H ups the ante with more HDMI 2.1 inputs, a new user-friendly interface and, most importantly, a more responsive, coherent and spacious sound. It retains Denon’s signature authoritative weight but refines and balances it with a bolder top end that can do better justice to both music and movies. With its onboard room calibration software and a modernized full-screen interface, it's relatively easy to use and well-equipped," says the magazine. "The AVR-X2800H still sits at the head of the class, just as its excellent predecessor did."
