Me?
I like the Denons. I think they have a very clean sound and the 3808 has alot of features including ethernet port for Internet radio / music server / firmware updates, etc., multisource/multizone, HDMI 1.3, 40 hz and 60 Hz crossover settings, and all the latest audio formats, etc. I was coming off another Denon so I didn't really compare with anything else except Yamaha.
If I were buying again I might look harder at Pioneer, Onkyo, and Marantz or separates if I had the $$$, but I am very happy with this unit.
