Exactly what I wanted. Works great.

I feel obligated to write this review, since there's another review up here by someone who does not own the product. Not only did I "think before you buy", but I also thought before I wrote this review. I just hooked mine up, so this is early impressions.I just setup a 3D home theater, and discovered that my Sony STR-DA3400ES 7.1 Channel AV Receiver does not pass the 3D signal. It downgrades the signal to non-high speed. So, the Denon AVR-E400 is its replacement in this setup. I chose the E400 over the E300 for its video up-scaling and up-conversion. That's one feature of the Sony that I really like - only connecting a single HDMI cable to my projector, and all non-HDMI inputs are up-converted to HDMI.Setup was extremely simple. This receiver is made for HDMI, so Denon got rid of a lot of useless ports on the back. Just one component video input, no s-video, etc. I much prefer that over the Sony with its massive switchboard of ports that I'll never use. The Wii uses component video, and an old camcorder uses composite if I need it. One gripe is that the speaker connections do not support banana plugs, so I had to pop those off my speaker wires. I also hooked up a wired network connection, from an gigabit switch, to take advantage of the network features of the receiver.Once powered on, the onscreen setup wizard is easy to use. I skipped the automatic speaker adjustments for now. After I get all the boxes and such out of the room, it'll be ready for acoustic optimization. Be aware that the default volume level is completely turned off. The speaker test tone won't make a sound during setup until you raise the volume. In general, the onscreen menu is very easy to read and navigate. It overlays on top of my cable tv signal. (BTW, that cable standby pass-though is very cool. Before I even turned the unit on, it was passing the tv signal to my projector.) The menu is a bit simpler than I expected (this is my first Denon). On the network setup step of the wizard, the receiver connected to the internet without asking for anything, and played an internet music station to verify - awesome.Be aware that if you want the full manual, you have to download it or copy it from the supplied CD. There's no printed manual, just a quick setup guide.Right now my receiver is downloading a firmware update. I checked for an update on the menu, saw that there was one with an estimated download/install time of 41 minutes. I'm about to check on it. If I update this review using ALL CAPS like some maniac, then you know my receiver has been bricked and I'm pissed. Otherwise, I'm off enjoying a movie.

think before you buy
By hard worker
this is not a review of this receiver, its just my current thoughts on the state of HT. the one part of any av receiver is the HDMI board. It is not something that anyone can guarantee to work flawlessly. These are made exclusively by third parties and are prone to fail. The second trend I see is the addition of networking and wireless transmission of music. IMO its best to hook up a network box like apple tv to make that easy to use. pointless to splurge extra money on that feature, if you need Bluetooth add a blue tooth receiver from some third party . getting all these features built in to receiver might make for an elegant look but will come with a lot of compromises. remember when you are about to spend close to $600 on one of these products , if the HDMI fails on you past the warranty period, you are looking at an expensive brick. buy lots of power in an amplifier, most folks will not ever hook up a 7.1 channel system. stick to 5.1 channel set up , save money , do not worry about 4K till you can actually afford a 80 inch tv (0r have place for it). remember in the past five years things when from usb-2 to usb-3, hdmi 1.3 went to hdmi 1.4, apple 30 pin adapter to lightning and thunderbolt. so by the time 4K gets to your den the standards will have changed and stuff like 4K passthru in todays receiver will not mean much . I have yet to run into someone who can watch stuff like a full basketball or football game in 3D and not have a terrible headache or gets to see more dramatic action than shown on 2D tv. save extra money spent to fancy add on features and go the plugin route, easier on the pocketbook to upgrade a 80-100 dollar add on rather than an entire $600 brick. good luck on your future AV-receiver purchases
