7.2 Channel Home Theater Receiver 1

Dolby Atmos
Feel every dimension in Dolby Atmos. Upgrade your home theater with a 5.1.2 speaker setup to unleash a fully immersive 3D audio experience from Dolby Atmos content.
Dolby Surround upmixer engages all speakers to create 3D audio sensation from legacy content. Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization Technology creates the sensation of overhead sound even without a 5.1.2 system.

DTS:X
DTS:X immersive audio content places sound where it would naturally occur in space, creating lifelike, multi- dimensional audio.

ARC (Audio Return Channel) or eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) makes playing TV audio through your AV receiver simple, with just a single HDMI connection. eARC provides HD and 3D audio transmission such as Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD Master Audio, and Dolby Atmos while ARC is limited to conventional 5.1ch audio formats or PCM.

Multi-source, multi-room
By connecting a pair of speakers in a second room to the AV receiver, it’s possible to enjoy 5.1-channel surround sound in the main room and a separate source or music stream in the second room, such as den or patio. You can also play the same audio in both so that everyone in your home can enjoy and cheer your favorite team on Sunday evening or listen to the same song in both rooms. The AV receiver supports 2-source, 2-zone audio.

For additional convenience, the AV receiver renames HDMI inputs automatically when connected or you can rename manually at your convenience.

Denon AV receivers use the Audyssey suite of EQ software for simple, accurate setup and calibration.

This AV receiver supports Audyssey MultEQ room-correction technology. The other supported Audyssey features are Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume.
