Denon Service... Yeah or Nay?

I`m on my second 3910.I too could not get a hold of Denon so I retuened the first one & my dealer friend gave me another.Now 4 month`s old it has laser pick up issues & stops in the middle of the
disc on 1/2 the dvd`s Ifeed it.Great picture though.Im taking it back next week,maybe I`ll update to the 5910.The service tech says he talks to Denon allthe time.I told him he must have a priorty rating cause I was unable to get a response as you.

Thanks for the input. It seems as though they do not offer any real customer assistance. After owning McIntosh and Marantz I am used to being able to get answer. I only can remember one other manufacturer that I had trouble with and that was Naim. They answered the phone but the arrogance and rude way they handeled my call was enough to say no more Naim. I am hopeing to avoid that with Denon. And if they have treated a prospective customer this way maybe I should rethink this purchase. I just don't know what other Uni-Player in this price range to consider. I wish Marantz would offer a better video display. I compared the DV5910 to the McIntosh MVP861 but the video falls short there as well. Although the audio is superior to Denon. The Escoteric is more than I want to spend and haven't compared the video. Thanks again for all the input.

What ever you do, do not use Inner Sound out of Portland, Or. Take my word for it. Use the guys in Austin Tx.

They fixed my problem quick, and cheap. The other guys had mine a long time and when i got it back, it was not fixed. but I had to pay. Grrr! It went back to them twice at 45 bucks a pop for shipping. I even told them what the problem was. The tech's in Texas said what the problem was after I told them the symptoms. They had it fixed & back to me in 1 week, and paid the return shipping. Not so the other place. Other than that, the player has had no other problems. Good Luck!

Rws1950 was that a warranty claim?

Had a 1600 dvd player. Went on the fritz a couple of months after the warranty expired. Fortunately I had bought the extended warranty! This is a scheme where the out-of-warranty work is sold and paid for by some insurance company, but the work is still done by Denon. Was told it would take 2 weeks and got the player back after 8. It lasted another 3 months. I tossed it in the garbage. Denon's first and last chance with me.
