User manual DENON AVR-684

[. . . ] Outstanding surround sound an affordable price, with Dolby Digital and DTS decoding. The AVR-684's remote controller features an easy-to-use layout where most frequently used buttons are provided in different colors and shapes for easy recognition, even while keeping your eyes on the screen. The buttons also feature "Self-illuminated GLO-KEY" for easy operation in the dark. [. . . ] s Equal Power Discrete Power Amplifier Front 100 W + 100 W (8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0. 07 % THD) Center 100 W (8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0. 07 % THD) Surround 100 W + 100 W (8 ohms, 1 kHz, 0. 07 % THD) All five power amplifier channels feature discrete power output devices, and all five amplifier channels provide equal power with lowest distortion. Each channel is rated at 100 watts, into 8 ohms, 1 kHz, with no more than 0. 07% THD. A hallmark of Denon A/V component design, the equal power amplifier provides outstandingly accurate reproduction of motion picture soundtracks and multi-channel music programs. s DDSC-Digital (Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit-Digital) Since surround signals are all processed in the digital domain, the AVR-684 is equipped with a newly-developed, sophisticated, high-performance dual DSP circuit for the Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, dts decoders, and Surround Simulator. The D/A converters feature high resolution designs for all the Front L/R, Center, Surround L/R, and Subwoofer channels. This combination of DSP and D/A converters works to bring out the tremendous potential of Dolby Digital and dts sound. In addition, high resolution A/D converters have been incorporated for the Dolby Pro Logic decoder. The high sound quality of New DDSC-Digital is due in part to the high-grade signal processing of the 24-bit, 96-kHz Digital Interface Receiver (DIR). The AVR-3300 not only allows digital signals input from DVD and other advanced media to pass directly to the DIR, it also processes them while preserving their integrity so that even the most delicate nuances of the music, reflecting the emotions of the artists, are passed unfettered to the dual digital signal processor (DSP). Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit-Digital Block Diagram s Dolby Digital Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic decoding functions are performed in the digital domain for excellent dynamic range and crystal clear reproduction.
