Information

1. Digital Surround Sound Decoding Featuring 32 bit high speed DSP, operating entirely in digital domain, surround sound from digital sources such as DVD, LD, DTV and satellite are faithfully re-created. 2. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multi-channel audio signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision. 3. Dolby Digital Using advanced digital processing algorithms, Dolby Digital provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound. Dolby Digital is the default digital audio delivery system for DVD and North American DTV. 4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems) DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and specially-encoded music discs. 5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6 The AVR-3803/1083 can be decoded with DTS-ES Extended Surround, a new multi-channel format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. The AVR-3803/1083 can be also decoded with DTS Neo:6, a surround mode allowing 6.1-channel playback of regular stereo sources. 6. DTS 96/24 compatibility The AVR-3803/1083 can be decoded with sources recorded in DTS 96/24, a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. DTS 96/24 sources can be played in the multi-channel mode on the AVR-3803/1083 with high sound quality of 96 kHz/24 bits or 88.2 kHz/24 bits. 7. Wide screen mode for a 7.1-channel sound even with 5.1-channel sources Denon has developed a wide screen mode with a new design which recreates the effects of the multi surround speakers in movie theaters. The result is 7.1-channel sound taking full advantage of surround back speakers, even with Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital/DTS 5.1-channel signals. 8. Dual Surround TV Multimedia">Speaker Mode Provides for the first time the ability to optimize surround sound reproduction using two different types of surround sound speakers as well as two different surround TV Multimedia">Speaker positions: (1) Movie Surround Motion picture soundtracks use the surround channel(s) to provide the ambient elements of the acoustic environment they want the audience to realize. This is best accomplished by the use of specially-designed surround speakers that offer a wide diffusion pattern (bipolar dispersion) or by using surround speakers that provide broad dispersion with a minimum of onaxis localization (dipolar dispersion). Side wall mounting (closer to the ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the greatest envelopment, minimizing localization of direct sound from the speakers. (2) Music Surround With full range discrete surround channels, as well as three discrete full range front channels, digital formats such as Dolby and DTS offer thrilling surround sound music listening. Producers of multi-channel discrete digital music recordings almost always favor the use of direct radiating (monopolar) surround speakers, placed in the rear corners of the room, since that is how they configure their studios during the mixing/creation process. The Denon AVR-3803/1083 provides the ability to connect two different sets of surround speakers, and place them in the appropriate locations in your AV theater room, so that you can enjoy both movie soundtracks and music listening, with optimum results and no compromise. 9. Multi Zone Music Entertainment System Multi Source Function: This unit’s Multi Source function lets you select different audio sources for listening Different sources can thus be enjoyed in the main room (MAIN) and the subroom (ZONE 2) simultaneously. 10.Component Video Switching In addition to composite video and “S” video switching, the AVR- 3803/1083 provides 2 sets of component video (Y, PB/CB, PR/CR) inputs, and one set of component video outputs to the television, for superior picture quality. 11.Video Select Function Allow you to watch one source (visual) while listening to another source (audio). 12.Future Sound Format Upgrade Capability via Eight Channel Inputs & Outputs For future multi-channel audio format(s), the AVR-3803/1083 is provided with 7.1 channel (seven main channels, plus one low frequency effects channel) inputs, along with a full set of 7.1 channel pre-amp outputs, controlled by the 8 channel master volume control. This assures future upgrade possibilities for any future multi-channel sound format. 13.Video Conversion Function The AVR-3803/1083 is equipped with a function for up-converting video signals. Because of this, the AVR-3803/1083’s MONITOR OUT jack can be connected to the monitor (TV) with a set of cables offering a higher quality connection, regardless of how the player and the AVR- 3803/1083’s video input jacks are connected.
