Denon AVR-E300: versatile receiver with no exceeds

Denon AVR-E300 review & specs

This Denon AVR-E300 Home Theater does much more than average receiver. The nicest feature is a possibility to change the option Video source being fed to the audio channel, so you can play, for instance, any PS game while listening to the streaming or local radio tuners which this unit has. It is better to keep experimenting with adjusting master volume settings and room speakers physical locations, for better Home Theater solution.

Design

This model perfectly combines sound quality and rich functionality. The receiver features Denon speaker sockets with color markings, and the bundle includes color labels for the wires. To simplify the connection, the new AVR-E300 features Denon Easy-Connects acoustic connectors - it becomes easier to connect the acoustics with them than ever before.

Features

One of the precious features of this receiver is the Audyssey technology, which makes setup a breeze. You plug in the attached microphone, and move it to some sitting locations in your room, while test tones sound. The whole processes take maybe 15 minutes total and make a huge difference in quality.

Performance

The Audyssey Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume do an amazing job of processing different sources, and evening out content levels. The Denon receiver seems to be actively processing all of the audio passing through the unit, making every source incredibly, easy to listen to. As it should it sounds right.

Sound Quality

The sound is great, setup is graphically guided if you need it, and the WiFi remote app is awfully handy for when you lose the normal remote since ideally you'll only ever be using it for volume (if this is strictly for your home theater setup).

Connectivity

One of the great Denon AVR-E300 specs is the inclusion of Apple's AirPlay technology, making streaming from iTunes on your phone or laptop a snap. Unfortunately, the display menus from the Denon is decidedly low-res 480p, but that doesn't detract from the listening experience.

Setup

The setup is unexpectedly easy. The on-screen menu walks you through connecting each speaker and the Audyssey automatic volume setup makes it sound incredible. Using Audyssey for 15 minutes really made a huge difference in the quality of sound.

Conclusion

Great general AV system for its price. The Denon AVR-E300 is simple for set-up and control, it has not a lot of buttons and knobs to play with.

The Audio Return Channel (ARC) saves a lot of cabling by allowing any TV audio to play through AV regardless of source. If you need a quality receiver with no extra functions the Denon AVR-E300 will fit your requirements.
