Review Conclusion

by Clint DeBoer last modified December 07, 2006

I can't tell you how impressed I was with this player. It is an enigma and I predicted how hard it would be to review the DVD-5910CI following this report. The DVD-3930CI is simply such a stellar performer it doesn't leave much left to be desired. Video quality is above par as is the audio fidelity coming form this unit. Whether you are going analogue or digital, audio or video, the Denon isn't going to let you down and it will be very hard, if not impossible, to find anything that competes with this product at or below this price. At $1500 this player isn't for the weak of heart (or light of wallet) - this is an audioholic's and videoholic's transport. Highly recommended is an understatement.

The Score Card

The scoring below is based on each piece of equipment doing the duty it is designed for. The numbers are weighed heavily with respect to the individual cost of each unit, thus giving a rating roughly equal to:

Performance × Price Factor/Value = Rating

Audioholics.com note: The ratings indicated below are based on subjective listening and objective testing of the product in question. The rating scale is based on performance/value ratio. If you notice better performing products in future reviews that have lower numbers in certain areas, be aware that the value factor is most likely the culprit. Other Audioholics reviewers may rate products solely based on performance, and each reviewer has his/her own system for ratings.
