Chose Denon 3803..now for speakers

I have a Denon 3801 with the Sonus Faber Concertino speakers including the center. The Concertino has a nice smooth mid range and highs (Not overly bright) which matches the warm Denon sound quite well. I have had this set up for quite sometime and am very happy with it. I did also listened to the Vienna but decided to go with SF.
As with the surround speaker, depending on the size of the room, the mirage omni sats will do nicely!

You would need a sub to bring out the base. To bring out the dynamic and soundstage of any CD or DVD sound tracks, I would recommend that you bypass the L,R,C channel amp section of the Denon with a decent Multi-Channel Amps.

Then when you get the $$, go to a nice pre-pro. Bottom line, let your ears and budget decide.

M&Ks are a natural match with Denon, as are the paradigms. I just don't like the paradigm sound (psb is better to me) but is worth an audition

I also have the 3803; I'm using 5 older Acoustic Research that I've had for about 10 years. The first new speaker set-up that I'd listen to are the PSB Image series. Fantastic range without over-emphasizing any one frequency area,similar to the Paradigm line. The performance-to-dollar value on the PSB's is one of the best for any speaker line.

I'm using Boston Acoustics VR950 with a PV600 subwoofer (the sub is turned WAY down - I almost don't need it), and the sound is very nice, especially in pure direct mode. Bostons tend to have a full but somewhat bright sound, and the Denon has a warm sound. I think it's a nice combination... I picked up the Bostons for $350 on sale at Tweeter, and the sub for another $350. There is also a new VR3 speaker that sounds stunning, which sells for $1200 a pair.
