Denon AVR-1912

Denon's AirPlay-equipped receiver is good but no match for its superior midrange rival

Six HDMI inputs ; Supports AirPlay ; Smooth, detailed sound

Not as aurally exciting as some rivals ; Some operational foibles ; No video scaling or Wi-Fi support

The AVR-1912 is relatively light on connections, although compromises were always likely at this price. Thankfully Denon hasn’t skimped on HDMI inputs, offering six v1.4 ports plus a single ARC-compatible output. You only get two digital audio inputs...

Denon AVR-1912 review

AirPlay-enabled multichannel receiver delivers a weighty, detailed sound, but competition is tough, despite a £50 price cut

Fine build ; good specification ; AirPlay built-in ; easy to set up ; weighty, detailed sound ; open, expressive midrange

Lacks the dynamic versatility and detail of rivals ; soundfield cohesion between channels could be more immersive

The AVR-1912 is a very good receiver for the money, but is bettered by rival machines

Denon AVR-1912 review

Apple's nifty music streaming feature, AirPlay, is slowly finding its way onto more and more home cinema products, and Denon's AVR-1912 is another one to add to the list. This makes it dead simple to play music from iPods, iPhones and iPads, but with...

Crisp, polished performance; built-in AirPlay; build quality

Lacks the gusto of midrange rivals; no video scaling; mixed GUI; skimps on connections

Denon AVR-1912

Denon AVR-1912 7.1 Channel Networked A/V Receiver First Look

For those not in the know, there are two receiver lines from Denon. The ones that have a model number that end in 'CI' are the higher end, "Custom Installer" models. These models often have expanded features that attract not only the power user, but...

There is a lot to like in the Denon AVR-1912. While they had to make some tradeoffs as far as number of connections, the fact that a $530 receiver is not only networked but also streams Internet radio, Rhapsody, Napster, and Pandora and is compatible...

Denon AVR-1912 review

As music and movie lovers demand more power and features, the number of brands entering the market through dealers also increases.

The Denon AVR-1912's price in India is Rs. 45,900, so it doesn’t really end up being the cheapest receiver around. As far as its connectivity options go, it’s very good and it’s a solid solution for a good speaker set.
