[Denon's AVRs get network upgrade] AV Denon has announced a firmware upgrade to a range of its current network capable AV receivers.

Owners of the brand’s highly-rated AVR-3808, AVR-4308, AVC and AVP-A1HD components will be able to download an update which delivers advanced Audyssey signal processing in the shape of Dynamic Volume and Dynamic EQ, as well as CEC HDMI protocol support.

Once downloaded, the firmware needs to be enabled with an Access key before it can be used, which can be purchased for £70 from a Denon retailer.

When queried about the charge, spokesman Henry Griffiths assured HCC: ‘These aren’t just run-of-the-mill firmware upgrades, but offer extensive new technologies to consumers.’
Well that's alright then...

Great news...I just wish that the local distributor can do this.   Sa US its a $100 upgrade option.     Mahirap kasi tinkering with the firmware, baka ma brick yung unit, pero kung local distributor ang gagawa, at least me coverage.

I've been monitoring this for the longest time. The trouble is that there is a lot of feedback on AVS Forum on guys who had a bad download (for whatever reason) and who had to send their unit to Denon. Patay.

Tama si Munskie. Better if the local distributor can do it. Kaso binili ko naman unit ko sa US.

But sir, according to the original post, its the network capable Denons only that can have the upgrade.

But correct me if I am wrong.
