Denon DHT488BA Features

Sound that surrounds — 5.1 channels

A huge part of the home theater experience is achieving theater-like sound in your living room. You may not have noticed, but there isn't just one giant speaker mounted under the movie screen (like the speaker in your TV), delivering all your favorite audio effects. No, there are multiple speakers, arranged all around you, enveloping you in the theater-sound experience. Why should the home theater experience be any different? It shouldn't. The DHT-488BA home theater system from Denon delivers 5.1 channels of surround sound fueled by Dolby digital® and dts® technologies, the same surround-sound formats used in the movies. The DHT-488BA's 5.1 channels consist of five 75W channels and one 100W powered-subwoofer channel. Four satellite speakers with 3" mid-bass drivers and 0.75" tweeters fill the room with the effects while a center channel speaker with dual 3" mid-bass drivers and 0.75" tweeter delivers the dialogue. The 8" subwoofer completes the audio experience by accenting the low-frequency rumbles and bass tones.

Memorable surround sound

Allowing the receiver to store surround modes, level settings for all speakers, and delay times, Personal Memory Plus lets you customize your sound source. With the push of a button, the DHT-488BA's receiver will be turned to the source of choice and the preset settings will be activated.

Three HDMI connections? We rest our case

All rise for the honorable, connectible, DHT-488BA. Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Denon's DHT-488BA features 2 HDMI inputs. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI.

You'll be 'floating' on waves of audio and video bliss

Gliding above older, slower fixed-point digital signal processors, the 32-bit floating point DSP hard at work inside your new DHT-488BA's AVR-488 receiver allows you to take advantage of the fastest in digital processing when filtering your favorite audio and video media to this Denon home theater system.

Bringing 'Home' and 'Theater' together

You aren't investing in a home theater so that you can continue to have the same audio and video experience as always. Oh no; you're looking for more, and so you've turned to Denon. In the quest to make your home audio and video experience as theater-like as possible, Denon has equipped your new DHT-488BA with Cinema Equalizer technology. The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital®, dts®, or other formats emphasizes high-frequency range 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 can be too strong. Cinema Equalizer corrects these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. Denon brings the theater experience home.

Setting the color standard

Not only does high-definition video come in amazing detail, but it also features vast, rich color displays. Your Denon DHT-488BA includes both x.v.YCC Wide Color Gamut and Deep Color color enhancement technologies that expand the range of color that your system can display by up to 80%. More color is, itself, more detail, more definition.

Ready . . . Set . . . Satellite radio (and iPod, too)

Sure, portable music devices and satellite radio subscriptions are great for when you're on the go, but they are just as good when you're at home. Denon sees no reason why you shouldn't be able to enjoy your portable music or satellite radio at home on your new DHT-488BA home theater system. With this in mind, the DHT-488BA has been equipped with both XM® satellite radio and iPod readiness via the addition of optional accessories, like the ASD-1R iPod dock.

Restored audio is happy audio

Taking the experience of your portable audio at home one step further, the DHT-488BA features compressed audio restoration technology. Most portable audio formats — like MP3, for example — are compressed audio formats. This means that some audio information (usually higher and lower frequency information) has been removed in order to shrink the file, allowing you to fit more songs into the same memory space. Denon's new compressed audio restoration technology reproduces the higher frequency range and deeper bass sounds that were originally removed from the files. Experience your portable audio like never before, at home.

Get plugged in

The advent of HDMI has been monumental in the advancement of all your favorite audio and video gadgets. Don't miss out on all the high-definition audio and video connectivity that your new DHT-488BA offers — put a set of HDMI cables on your list! HDMI cables give you the ability to transmit all audio and video between your various components along a single cable. Vann's sales representatives are here to explain all your options, so you can make the best purchase and get the most out of your hi-def system. Call for expert advice: 1-800-769-5668.
