Denon 5.1-channel black home theater receiver

AVR-1610 (Black)

Fuel 5.1 channels of audio with 75W of output power each and the latest decoding technologies from Dolby and dts, including Dolby TrueHD and Pro Logic IIz, and dts-HD Master Audio. While minimum-signal-path technology and direct mechanical grounding minimize distortion, Audyssey MultEQ room calibration uses an included microphone to tailor your audio system's performance to your listening area. Finally, three HDMI inputs in combination with a wealth of audio and video connections make the Denon AVR-1610 a versatile hub for your home-theater experience.

The ultimate in surround sound from Dolby and dts

There's surround sound, and then there's high definition surround sound. We're talking seven full channels of uncompressed, studio-quality audio such as that found on HD sources like Blu-ray Disc. Taking full advantage of the HD audio experience requires more than seven speakers and a Blu-ray player, however. You've got to have the decoding power to translate the encoded digital signal on Blu-ray into an analog signal that can be amplified to power your speakers. You need heavy hitters from Dolby Digital and dts. Not only does the Denon AVR-1610 home theater receiver sport Dolby TrueHD and dts-HD Master Audio decoding for seamless processing of the HD audio on your favorite Blu-ray movie, but it also serves up the latest from Dolby . . . Dolby Pro Logic IIz. Incorporating two front "height" channels into the surround sound constellation, Pro Logic IIz decoding adds a new dimension of spatial sensation to movies, music, and video games. Achieve the ultimate in surround sound in your home theater.

And now . . . the nuts and bolts

With 75W of discrete power amplification channeled to each of its seven channels, the Denon AVR-1610 delivers all the power you need to achieve a truly impressive surround sound experience. This receiver doesn't just offer audio power, it also brings you high-fidelity audio reproduction. Minimum-signal-path technology minimizes degradation of the audio signal, while direct mechanical grounding controls sources of vibration, another threat to sound quality. While digital optical and coaxial audio connections offer versatile audio connectivity, three HDMI inputs make this receiver the HD hub for your entire system, offering the most advanced, single-cable HD audio/video connection. Further, a broad spectrum of auxiliary audio and video inputs and outputs offers diverse options for connecting other A/V devices.

Audyssey equalization . . . a different kind of odyssey

Unlike Homer's Odyssey, the Audyssey technologies offered on the AVR-1610 don't plague your home theater with perils and pitfalls, strife and struggle. There are no digital Scylla nor Charybdis here. For starters, Audyssey Dynamic MultEQ room equalization works in concert with an included setup microphone to measure the performance of your speakers, ultimately adjusting and optimizing their performance based on the unique characteristics of your listening area, automatically. Further, Audyssey Dynamic Volume constantly monitoring the sound source being heard and adjusting the volume to the optimum level for that source without sacrificing dynamic range. Imagine watching a "Behind-the-scenes" bonus feature on your favorite action movie. You need the volume to be louder when listening to the director discuss a scene from the studio, but when the documentary switches to a high-intensity scene from the film, you don't want to have to scramble to lower the volume.

The advanced HD connectivity of HDMI

Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Denon's AVR-1610 features three 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. (Please note that a physical adapter, sold separately, is needed to make the conversion from HDMI to DVI.)

The HD connection

High Definition Multimedia Interface, or HDMI, is the only home A/V connection that allows for both Full HD 1080p video and 7.1-channel studio-quality audio to be passes along a single cable. In other words, in order to take full advantage of your home theaterâ€™s high definition potential, you need to HDMI cabling to link HD-capable components. Itâ€™s only natural that you might have questions regarding how best to outfit your personal HD system. Vannâ€™s sales representatives are here to explain all of your options.
