Superb Stereo Sound
Providing 80 watts per channel, into 8 ohms, from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with no more than .08 percent total harmonic distortion, the DRA397 delivers solid, reliable audio performance even when driving both A and B speaker systems at the same time. The circuit handling low-level signals have been divided into separate blocks to ensure that influences from these signals on each other are held to an absolute minimum. This new chassis design, known as Signal Level Divided Construction (SLDC), preserves the purity of the signal, allowing it to be reproduced with much greater fidelity and clarity.
Enough Sound To Go Around
The DRA397's Multi Source function lets you enjoy two different programs, simultaneously in two or more areas of your home. You can listen to a CD or the tuner in one room, for instance, while another family member watches a DVD video or video tape in the other room. Dedicated multi-room outputs, with volume level adjustment via remote control, are provided for connection to powered speakers or an additional amplifier (sold separately) in Zone 2 and Zone 3. External remote control equipment including IR re-transmitters and IR remote receivers can be connected to the DRA397's IR remote input and output terminals.
More Entertainment Options
You can enjoy playing back the music loaded on your iPod through the DRA397 when the ASD1R, Denon's original Control Dock for iPod (sold separately), is connected to the dedicated control terminal of the receiver. The iPod can also be controlled via the remote controller supplied with the DRA397. This features supports 3rd-generation and later iPods equipped with a Dock connection. What's more, with the purchase of an optional XM Mini-Tuner and subscription to XM Satellite Radio, you can enjoy this exciting entertainment format through the DRA397.
Get It Together
The DRA397 has several features that can add to your entertainment experience. Stereo video sources, such as hi-fi VCR, stereo TV, and DVD can all be easily connected to the DRA397's DVD/VDP, VCR and Video Aux terminals. The Video Select Function allows you to select a video source, and then select an alternate audio input source, ideal for simulcasting, as well as watching TV sports programs while listening to radio commentary. The DRA397 includes random preset memory tuning for 56 stations (AM/FM/XM). FM stations can be searched by the tuner, and automatically stored in the preset memory up to 56 stations, which is great for locales with many FM stations. Thanks to PLL circuit design, reception drift is a thing of the past.
