User manual DENON AVR-1604

[. . . ] I DENON's Basic Design for High-Quality Sound Reproduction · Twin Drive Rectifier DENON's Twin Drive Rectifier design uses two rectifying diodes in parallel to bring out the maximum potential of the large transformer. Since the rectifiers recharge the large block capacitors at low impedance, they are able to supply ample current to reproduce deep basses as well as sudden bursts of sound from percussion or other musical instruments. · Large Aluminum Extruded Heatsink DENON uses a large heatsink made of extruded aluminum. It is placed in a design that ensures mostly uniform temperatures throughout the heatsink. This will ensures that all channels respond with equal performance to the demands of the audio signals. [. . . ] This will ensures that all channels respond with equal performance to the demands of the audio signals. I Dual-Channel Surround Back Power Amp for 7. 1 Surround The AVR-885 is equipped with a total of 7 power amps including 2 for the Surround Back channel speaker to give you more clearly defined sound localization at the rear for 6. 1-channel surround sources such as DTS-ES Discrete 6. 1, DTS-ES Matrix 6. 1, Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES NEO:6. I Wide-Range Play Capability for DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD The power amp circuits of the AVR-885 have been meticulously designed to reproduce exceptionally high sound quality with a wide frequency response from 10 Hz to 100 kHz. I Cinema Equalizer The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats emphasizes high-frequency due to a theater's front speakers being placed behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-885 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II and IIx, Dolby Digital EX and DTS surround modes) I On Screen Display The AVR-885 lets you make system settings via diaplays on your TV screen from the comfort of your chair. I Personal Memory Plus, for Easy Operation The AVR-885 includes the Personal Memory Plus function that automatically remembers the surround mode you last used for each program source, so that you do not need to select the mode again for that program. · Power Transformer for High Power Driven The chassis that supports the large transformer has been designed to absorb vibration, and the transformer is housed inside a highly rigid frame to secure it more solidly to the chassis. In addition, a cushioning material has been placed around the core of the transformer to minimize interference on the signal and enable more faithful reproduction of the original sound. The AVR-885 inherits these low-noise design from higher-end models not to mention the use of short ring. NEW MODEL INFORMATION Specifications AVR-885 I Acclaimed Customization Feature As with all of DENON's high-grade A/V receiver, the AVR-885 lets you adjust delay times and other parameters so that you can customize the performance of the AVR-885 to suit your own home theater and enhance operating ease. Sources can be selected for output to an additional zone, in addition to the main room. I Multi Zone Power Amplifier Assign The AVR-885's Power Amplifier Assign function lets you assign the Surround Back (SB) amplifier channel when the system is not configured for 7. 1 to instead drive the Multi-room Zone 2 speakers, with 125 Watts per channel output power, while still providing 5 discrete amplifier channels to drive all speakers in a 5. 1 configured home theater room.
