[funkymonk]

Looks like the 3802 has more power (including two additional amps for the back surround speakers), DTS-ES, DD 6.1, multi zone output, amp output assign, probably other additional feature too, didn't look very closely (sorry!); but here are a couple of links to the involved receivers to get you started on figuring out why the 3802 is double the price of the 1802:

The 1082 is not the 1802.

Everything I've read indicates that the 1082 is the exact same product as the 3802, but intended for mass retailers rather than specialty shops.

Thanks for correcting that!
