Forget about headphones

This price for an AVR that has no capability to connect to a bluetooth headphone! What idiot made that decision?

Great Product

I've had my receiver set up for a week and have used it everyday. It replaces a Yamaha from the Aventage series but after 8 years of heavy use began to be glitchy. The Denon was very easy to set up and the surround sound is fantastic. Very intuitive! Although I loved the Yamaha, it was a bit more difficult. I would recommend this product to a friend or anyone looking for a new home AVR.

This receiver has more than enough inputs for our small home theater, delivers power to our LCR speakers and provides the added benefit of atmos sound above. Would highly recommend to anyone on the fence about purchasing.

This AVR was so simple to install and configure. Setting up a calibrating the 7 speaker surround system on my previous AVR was a nightmare and took hours. With this new one it was so much easier and faster. The surround sound quality is fantastic in a large area of the room now. I also really like how the AVR picks up the arcHDMI from the television and automatically turn off and on to manager the TV sound output over the surround system. The up video scaling is also very impressive when playing dvds through and older player.

I bought this receiver to replace a Pioneer vsx 501 that I've had since 1993. The options are endless and the sound separation is great !! I also purchased 2 12 inch powered subs to go with the unit, I've played music and movies and this far exceeds my expectations. This thing is top-notch the only downside is the steep learning curve.

Long time Yamaha fan switched to Denon.

Having a hard time getting a Yamaha, I decided to replace my aging and failing RX-2010 with this model. Both models are very similar in look, design, and layout. I only need 5.1 channels in my main room, but I also have 2 separate zones (3 zones total) that I need to push stereo out with different source than main. This model meets that need at a good price point. First one I received was defective and thanks to the great support from Crutchfield, I received a replacement in hand less than 24 hours after ending the support call. I can't say enough about the quality of support provided by Crutchfield as many other support organizations are not even close in the level of quality. My only thing (and not really a fault of Denon) was learning how everything works as I have been used to Yamaha for the past 15 years.

So far I really like this receiver. It sounds great in stereo and surround. I bi-amped it before powering it up the first time so I can't compare it not being bi-amped. I highly recommend the Denon AVR-X4500H. And my Bowers & Wilkens speakers really like the extra power compared to my previous receiver.

For the money it is a great receiver. The sound is good and the initial set up was easy. Fine tuning the receiver is a little more difficult because to the lack of information. Unless you are an expert at setting up stereo AV receivers plans on spending weeks learning how to set this up.

Denon AVR-X4500H

I feel like I got a steal, because of the awesome prices crutchfield offers. This AVR makes my room feel like I'm in a huge theater. I'm only running 7.1 but the Denon 4500 gives so much room to grow, especially since it can process 11 channels. One thing I wasn't expecting is that the upscaling works so well, it almost made think I got a new projector I was wanting to upgrade to 4K but I can wait a little longer with this AVR. The service from crutchfield is awesome they tell you one day shipping that is exactly what you get, their selection is unmatched especially during this time when almost everyone is out of stock. I would most definitely be shopping with crutchfield again.

Horrible

I built a brand new house and had all the wire run professionally. I originally got the 4400 but after it failed to send video properly Crutchfield switched it out for a 4500. Crutchfield is an amazing company and has always stood behind Their product. The 4500 has now died for no apparent reason for now the third time I am over Denon..... I have checked all the speakers they are all fine ,wires check ,independent 20 amp dedicated plug check ,surge protectors check. And by the way the last time it died my wife was watching I love Lucy!!!!!! This is ridiculous. So if you want to wait for 6 to 8 weeks to have it repaired just to have it happen again six months later by one of these.

I am very happy with my purchase. I had Denons for around 30 years, and the new unit sure lives up to he high standards of its predecessors. Installation was fairly simple. This was the first time I bought from Crutchfield and it's been a great experience (fast shipping). I cannot comment on the customer service, because I didn't run into any problems with th Denin.

Back in the Denon fold

I've been using Denon AVR's for about 20 years now. This is my 3rd and the other two are still powering other systems in my home. I recently bought a new 4k smart TV and needed ARC for HDMI and upgraded to another, cheaper AVR. I was disappointed in the UI and amplifier of that brand so I returned it and went back to Denon. I am so glad I did. Denon has been rock solid for me. Their power supplies are beefy and able to deliver constant power levels with low distortion. Unfortunately, I could not wait for the 2020 models as I would have been out of Crutchfield's stellar return policy.

No Regrets. Best Receiver, Hands Down.

I purchased this receiver on 05/11/20 and I can confidently say now that it is the best receiver I've ever owned. For all of the haters, stating that it will shutdown after 5 minutes of use, I've never had that issue. Not once over the past month of use. I immediately applied the firmware update once I received it and I suggest others do the same. I've also read from the impacted users that they had a mix of speakers not rated at the default-set: 8 Ohms. Luckily during the receiver setup process, Denon gives us the option to change the Ohm rating for each channel, so the auto shutdown should never be a problem. Along with this receiver I purchased a pair of B&W 706 S2s (Front), a pair of B&W 607 (Rear), and B&W HTM71 S2 (Center). I already had sub so I was good there.... Let me tell you, when I AirPlayed my sample of Little Drummer Boy by Pentatonix, I had chills. It sounded like the voice of God was in my room living room-- and it's mostly thanks to this receiver. The Dolby experience shines better than I've ever heard, and I can't wait to upgrade my setup in the future with Atmos speakers. Don't give this receiver a second thought if you're debating it over Marantz!

I replaced a 20+ year old Denon with the AVR-X4500H and am very pleased. I went from a unit with 2 "VCR" inputs a total home entertainment router. My sales rep, Doc, was the best. Being a more capable unit than my old one, I needed setup assistance. I went back to Crutchfield for all my questions and not once felt rushed to close the call, and this was over several different calls and techs. BRAVO!

Multi Zone - Great!

I've had denon units for a very long time and continue to love them. This one allows you to play 5.1 surround in the living as well as two other self amplified zoes. The heos app is great as it allows you to control not only the zones from the app but the music as well. I'm really enjoying the usit so far!

Where's the Boom??

After my AVR990 7.1 (the sister model of the 3300ci) never turned on last year, I figured it was time to upgrade to an Avr that is 4k comparable. First went with the X4400H and for a whole year I have been dealing with the LINITED Sub woofer output. Called Denon, took it in to be looked at, tech said it was opparating normal DISPITE Denon telling me it's DEFECTIVE. Now I'm on the X4500h, and guess what? SAME ISSUE. It seems on these new models, DENON PUTS SOME KIND OF LIMIT ON THE SUB OUTPUT. I have both units sitting here waiting for an answer as to why and what to do. I'm VERY disappointed. As for the X4500, unlike the 4400, they removed the Center channel dialog anhanser, it basically raises the overall volume, Not DIALOG. I'm using all 9.1 with a new 15" Sub. That SHOULD SHAKE THE BLOCK. in short, I dont know what Denon is doing, each new model they add a feature that is not needed IMAX?, while taking away what is needed or useful. I'm fed up as my hands are still tied. Crutchfield did thier best, tested one of thier own units, same issue!. Wake up Denon, my AVR'S are taking a nap while I'm running around.. Not Happy!.... miss my 7.2 AVR 990 :(

Quality today in receivers is a major disaappointment

Today's receivers just don't have the punch and depth that they did 15-20 years ago. Neither do they have the control of the sound like we did with older receivers. I even stepped up to the 4000 series instead of the 3000 series receivers and went with the latest model to match the abilities of the TV and still feel my old Denon 3000 from the early 2000's, if still working, would have out done this one for sound quality. All you need do is to pick up a receiver from today and one from 20 years ago and the weight of the units tells the whole story.

I am enjoying the system very much. Although only half of the system is set up. Waiting on geek squad to come and help set up the rest, like running the wires in the walls and other electronic components and running a ethernet line. I'm loving the surround sound even without the back speakers being connected yet.

Great option if you're not getting into pre/pro systems

Great for an AV Receiver, but what it has for features will never compare to a processor and amp setup can offer. Still reasonable power and multi-zone capability for most home theater and home audio systems. Nonetheless, quite pleased so far. Rest of setup includes Klipsch RP-600M FR, FL, SR, SL, 600C center, and R112SW sub.

Great receiver

Really nice receiver. I bought the 4500 to go in my new home theater. While the theater isn't quite finished yet, I have been able to set-up and test the receiver with 2 channel stereo. Super simple to set-up and connect to the home WiFi network. The AirPlay 2 set-up is also a bit easier on this receiver then the 1500 (I have two of those for whole house audio). HEOS works great for audio to multiple receivers. The receiver does run a bit warm so I'm also going to invest in an AC Infinity component fan. Love the sound of the receiver connected to my Martin Logan 60XT's. Once the room is finished, the receiver is going to be used solely as a preamp with the 11 speaker set-up powered by external amps. This is my third Denon AVR and I really like not only the sound but the rear layout of the unit. It's thought out well and has plenty of room to make connections. Very pleased with the unit thus far and Crutchfield's customer service is top notch.

Did not impress as much as onkyo tx rz820

for my living room home cinema, recently i bought onkyo tx rz820 and paired with Pioneer Elite SP-EBS73-LR Dolby Atmos Bookshelf Speakers with center channel (all are 4 ohms) along with dynamo 1100x sub.the set up 3.1.2.. I am totally immersed by the onkyo sound and dynamic range . music play back also wonderful. ( fyi: For music have kefls50 wireless.+node2i with tidal ). So i tempted go full 5.2.4 setup with onkyo tx RZ830 but unfortunately it was not in stock so i tried denon avr -x4500h due to very good reviews. so i fired with same 3.1.2 setup and watched all reference movie clips. i was kept looking for immerse dynamic sound as onkyo and increased volume 75%. no luck. something missing . its just plain. no excitement in Player one movie racing clip. after a while i started getting listing fatigue. so i verified EQ graph by Audyssey calibration. i surprised to see highs are too much and reduced mids and upper bass. settings are joke like i use to play 15 years back with 12 band graphic equalizer with my stereo.i see this one have latest tech imax enhanced dts but at this movement i cannot compromised with onkyo dynamics and sound quality . Onkyo sound is like bold full bodied and music also i get very good soundstage with very good vocals.on the other hand in denon sound all are missing with thin sound. hope i will not get hdmi issues with onkyo.

Amazing Sound Quality and

I purchased the Denon AVR-X4500 because I had two 7.1 systems with Klipsch reference speakers. I decided to upgrade my Onkyo 787 receiver and am glad I did. The music and movies come to life with the processing power and sound of the Denon. The only problem I experienced was audio dropouts. I soon realized it was my older Monster HDMI cables weren't compatible with Dolby Vision or HDR. I tried calling Monster to get their lifetime replacement, but their customer service is terrible because they wanted me to find the receipt for 15 year old cables. Never purchase Monster again! Also, I received amazing service from a Crutchfield advisor via the live chat. She helped me price match B&H photo. Thank you. Overall, the Denon is an amazing purchase and I absolutely recommend it.
