AVR-3802
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and Dolby Pro Logic II with 7 Power Amps and Multi-room Flexibility
The AVR-3802 provides two power amps for the Surround Back channels for a total of 7 fully-discrete amps of equal power. This powerful configuration lets you take maximum advantage of the dynamic performance that today's DTS-ES, Dolby Digital EX, DVD-Audio, and SACD program sources offer. The Dolby Pro Logic II features lets you hear 2-channel stereo sources in realistic 5.1-channel surround sound. The AVR-3802 includes Multi Zone Output and Power Amp Assign functions that let you

The AVR-3802 features an equal power 7-channel amplifier section, with identical amplifier design on all 7 channels, with high current discrete output devices on all channels. Each of the 7 amplifier channels is rated at 105 watts, into 8 ohms, from 20 Hz - 20 kHz with no more than 0.05% THD.
■ Hefty Power Transformer for Stable Supply of Power
A huge power transformer has been connected in the power section where it is combined with a rectifier diode and a large block capacitor to ensure a large, stable supply of electrical current. Accordingly, the AVR-3802 boasts high output power of 105 W for each of the 7 channels.
■ High Power Custom Transistor
When temperatures rise or fall inside the unit, bias current values supplied to the power transistor tend to fluctuate, causing sound quality to deteriorate. The high power custom transistor used in the AVR-3802 ensures that the bias current is constantly uniform so that the sound you hear is of consistently stable, high quality.
■ DDSC-Digital, for High-quality Sound Reproduction
Featuring the Analog Devices SHARC 32-bit floating point DSP processor, DENON’s DDSC-D circuitry faithfully recreates all the nuances of the original performance. Compared to ordinary 24-bit fixed point DSP processors, the Analog Devices SHARC 32-bit floating point DSP processor features greatly increased computational dynamic range for superior reproduction of stereo and multi-channel digital program sources.
■ Featuring DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 Decoding
The AVR-3802 is equipped with the DTS-ES (true discrete) 6.1 decoder, developed by DTS to provide dramatically improved surround sound panoramic reproduction and superior surround sound localization.
■Supports DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 Decoding
■Supports DTS NEO:6 Surround Decoding
■Featuring Dolby Pro Logic II Decoding
Enjoy 2-channel stereo recordings in stunning 5.1-channel surround playback.
The Dolby Pro Logic II decoder reproduces dynamic 5.1-channel surround sound not only from normal 5.1-channel DVD but from 2- channel sources such as videos and CDs, too. Dolby Pro Logic II uses matrix decoding technology that has been dramatically improved over Pro Logic. With Pro Logic II, for instance, the Surround (Rear) channels are in stereo (only mono with Pro Logic) and playback covers the full frequency range (only up to 7 kHz with Pro Logic). These improvements let you enjoy a wide variety of 2- channel sources with the exciting effects of 5.1-channel surround sound. In Dolby Pro Logic II, there is a Movie mode (*1) that creates a sound space suitable for movies, a Music mode that does the same for music, and a Pro Logic emulation feature that reproduces sound effects in the way that conventional Pro Logic does.
