I have a brand new Denon AVR-X1200 on the bench at the moment. It packed up two days from new so the retailer simply sent the chap another one. It was headed for the bin when my son nabbed it. This thing has seen two days of use and has (what should be) a fairly simple fix. It has a high voltage rail missing. Problem is, it's impossible to work on the thing "hot", one simply cannot get access to the required areas without a major dismantle and without bridging leads and cables you just end up with a pile of boards and cold testing which is a nightmare. It will get fixed but like so much modern gear, the time involved through normal channels would make it uneconomic to repair.
