Top of the line dissapointment
After spending 2K for Denon's DVD 3800 BDCI the trouble began. I watched my first movie (SpiderMan 3 Blu-Ray) all went well. A week or two later I tried to watch Cloverfeild and 2001 A Space Od. NO GOOD.

Both movies started to stop and play at random, not a good thing. Went to Denon website, there may be a fix, upgrading the firmware. However I must ship the unit to Denon in NJ, worse yet I'll have to pickup the shipping both ways ($45.00 each way). Unit should have an ethernet .... Read more

Outstanding Blu-Ray and CD player
I purchased the Denon 3800BDCI as I was looking for a "high end" Blu-Ray player that was also capable of playing SD DVD's and CD's. Having a Denon 4308CI as an AV processor also made this player an optimal choice for my system. Blu-Ray discs used in connection with the review included Home Video Essentials HD Basics, The Golden Compass, 2001, 10,000 B.C., Blade Runner (5 disc), Adventures of Baron Munchausen and Celine Dion's A New Day. Various SD DVD's and CD's were also used.

It plays blu-ray discs, no SACD support
This is a my opinion type of review, but they fall well short of actually supporting the best sound format in SACD. The PS3 does this for $500.00.

An Oppo 980H supports SACd and it's DVD multiplayer with DSD acros the HDMI cable. I know it's not Blu-Ray, but it only costs $170.00.

I put a Blu-ray player in my computer for $150.00 and the picture is perfect. They are coming out with newer sound cards that will support DTS-HD for computers ($100.00 or so and via HDMI). .... Read more

Excellent Blu-ray player with one caveat
The Denon DVD-3800BDCI is an excellent blu-ray player. It features the best audio and video components.

On the audio side, it features the Burr-Brown DACs PCM-1796, which is the same one featured in the Denon AVP-A1HDCi. It has internal decoders for 7.1 Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA. Sound quality is outstanding whether it is TrueHD, DTS-MA, LPCM, or just 2.0 CD.

On the video side, it features the Silicon Optix Realta chip, which is also featured in the Denon AVP-A1HDCI. .... Read more

El Perfecto
I got this player a week ago and I am totally blown away, and my TV is only capable of 1080i! (I won't be able to replace my TV until next year.) Two things struck me immediately, aside from the incredible detail, which beats the 1080i broadcasts that I am getting. The first was the colors. They are just dazzling! But it isn't because they're over-saturated or anything like that. It's like I'm seeing a variety of pastels that I've never seen before from my TV. So far I've looked mainly at nature ....
