Denon pronunciation - Blu-ray Forum

Silly question, but is Denon pronounced [DEE nahn] or [Dih NAHN]? I've always said it with a long "e", but a friend of mine keeps saying it the other way. It occured to me I've never heard it pronounced.

Like "Denim" with an N at the end

Well hell, I've been wrong then. I guess it wasn't a silly question after all. Thanks guys.

Don't feel bad, I thought it was "Dee-nahn" until a friend kindly pointed out my mispronunciation

Maybe that's why they work so well with "Blue Jeans Cables".
