| f8ster's Full Review: Denon AVR-3300 5.1 Channels Receiver |
I've had this receiver for a long time. I've been very happy with it overall, but I've got one particular problem: when switching inputs (e.g. from VCR1 to DVD), the audio doesn't switch immediately. If I don't touch it, it'll come back after some period of time -- sometimes immediately, sometimes 10 minutes.
I have the same problem when powering it on initially. It's been in for service, and they can't find anything wrong with it. Indeed, about half the time I have no problem at all -- the sound comes right on. Cycling power one or more times (sometimes up to 4+ times) does eventually solve the problem. However, if I just let it sit there, eventually the audio will kick on.
I've tried factory reset as well, to no avail. I can find no other reports of this problem anywhere on the internet, so it's likely an isolated incident, but it is really frustrating.
