n Additional functions

n Contents

1. Corresponding with New DENON control dock for iPod ASD-11R

When you connect the ASD-11R to AVP-A1HDCI / AVR-

5308CI, you can play your iPod’s music, photos and videos.

2. Addition of Audyssey Dynamic Volume

While constantly monitoring the sound source, Audyssey

Dynamic Volume delivers optimum volume adjustment without losing dynamic range.

3. Addition of SIRIUS Satellite Radio Ready

When you subscribe to the SIRIUS service, you can receive

SIRIUS Satellite Radio broadcasts.

Simply The Best Radio on Radio™ with all your favorite

entertainment including 100% commercial-free music, plus superior sports coverage, uncensored talk and comedy, world-class entertainment, news, weather and more for your car, home or ofﬁce.

4. DENON LINK 4th compatible (jitter-free playback)

DENON LINK 4th, in addition to DENON’s proprietary high-

grade audio signal transmission technology, DENON LINK 3rd, achieves high quality playback of HD audio.

When connected to a DENON LINK 4th compatible AV

ampliﬁer and Blu-ray Disc player by DENON LINK cable and HDMI cable, you can operate the Blu-ray Disc player with the master clock signal sent from the AV ampliﬁer. Since D/ A conversion is conducted with the master clock of the AV ampliﬁer, HDMI transmission is not affected by clock jitter, enabling jitter-free playback. This produces clearer sound localization, so you can enjoy the clear and three-dimensional sound imaging that beﬁts HD audio.

About Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance, and surround impression that remain constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ XT to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

About Dynamic Volume

Audyssey Dynamic Volume™ solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, ﬂipping between television channels, or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

NOTE

You cannot use either the “Dynamic EQ” or “Dynamic Volume” function if you conduct auto setup when the microphone connected to the V.AUX L terminal is not the prescribed accessory.

SIRIUS Connector

• The AVP-A1HDCI / AVR-5308CI is a SIRIUS Satellite Radio Ready® receiver. You can receive SIRIUS® Satellite Radio by connecting to the SiriusConnect Home Tuner and subscribing to the SIRIUS service.

• Connect the SiriusConnect Home Tuner to the 232C terminal (port

2) and the audio terminal on the rear panel. To make the connection, use the 232C cable in the accompanying Prokit.

• To assign the SIRIUS, make the setting at GUI menu “Source Select” – “(input source)” – “Assign” – “SIRIUS” (vpage 7).

• Position the Home Tuner antenna near a south-facing window to receive the best signal.

For details, see “Listening to SIRIUS Satellite Radio Programs”

(vpage 10).

When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of

the SiriusConnect Home Tuner.

Audyssey

Audyssey MultEQ® XT

Audyssey MultEQ XT is a room equalization solution that calibrates any audio system so that it can achieve optimum performance for every listener in a large listening area. Based on several room measurements, MultEQ XT calculates an equalization solution that corrects for both time and frequency response problems in the listening area and also performs a fully automated surround system setup.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ™

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ XT to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

Audyssey Dynamic Volume™

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain the same.

About DENON LINK 4th

DENON LINK 4th, in addition to DENON’s proprietary high-grade audio signal transmission technology, DENON LINK 3rd, achieves high quality playback of HD audio. When connected to a DENON LINK 4th compatible AV ampliﬁer and Blu-ray Disc player by DENON LINK cable and HDMI cable, you can operate the Blu-ray Disc player with the master clock signal sent from the AV ampliﬁer. Since D/A conversion is conducted with the master clock of the AV ampliﬁer, HDMI transmission is not affected by clock jitter, enabling jitter-free playback. This produces clearer sound localization, so you can enjoy the clear and three-dimensional sound imaging that beﬁts HD audio.
