This new receiver supports both DTS ES matrix 6:1 and DTS ES discrete, as well as Dolby Digital 6:1 and has 8 channel input for DVD-A or SACD. Speakerwise, it offers a 7.1 configuration which allows two back wall speakers for the center rear surround channel. I am seriously thinking about replacing my Yamaha A3090 with this new receiver. I was wondering if anyone on this site knows anything about this new unit. I believe it was introduced just before Christmas. The good thing is, it is about half the price of the 5800 receiver, though not as powerful- 105 watts for each of the 7 channels. The 3801 wouldn't have as many inputs and outputs as the 5800 either, but certainly has enough to accomodate my setup.
