I recently acquired these, and would like to make them work.
Wanted; 3 owners manuals; Denon AVR-1804. Pioneer VSX-4900s. Pioneer SX-1500TD. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on picking up three interesting pieces of kit!
For owners manuals, your best first stop is https://www.hifimanuals.com and https://www.manualslib.com - both have huge libraries of free downloadable PDFs covering Denon and Pioneer equipment, and all three of your models are well within the range of gear commonly archived there. The Denon AVR-1804 in particular was a popular mid-2000s receiver so its manual is widely available. The Pioneer VSX-4900S and SX-1500TD are older and more vintage in character, but Pioneer manuals from those eras are generally well preserved online.
If the PDF route does not pan out, https://www.vintageshifi.com and the Vinyl Engine library (https://www.vinylengine.com/library) are excellent for older Pioneer and Denon material - Vinyl Engine does require a free registration but it is worth it. For the SX-1500TD specifically, being a vintage receiver, you may also find scanned manuals on collector and vintage audio sites such as Antique Radio Forums or the Audiokarma forums.
If you do find a manual is missing or a scan is poor quality, noting the exact model number and production region (US, European, Japanese market) when you search can make a real difference, as some models had region-specific variants with different documentation.
