Audyssey DSX®

This unit is equipped with Audyssey DSX® processor. By connecting front height speakers to this unit and playing back through Audyssey DSX®, you can experience a more powerful playback expression in the height audio range. By connecting front wide speakers, you can experience a more powerful playback expression in the wide audio range.

DTS Neo:X

This technology enables the playback of 2-channel source audio or 7.1/5.1 multi-channel source audio through a maximum 11.1 channel speakers, achieving an even broader sound field.

Audyssey LFC™ (Low Frequency Containment)

Audyssey LFC™ solves the problem of low frequency sounds disturbing people in neighboring rooms or apartments. Audyssey LFC™ dynamically monitors the audio content and removes the low frequencies that pass through walls, floors and ceilings. It then applies psychoacoustic processing to restore the perception of low bass for listeners in the room. The result is great sound that no longer disturbs the neighbors.

Discrete subwoofers and Audyssey Sub EQ HT™

The unit has two subwoofer output capability and can adjust the level and delay for each subwoofer individually.

Audyssey Sub EQ HT makes the integration seamless by first compensating for any level and delay differences between the two subwoofers and then applying Audyssey MultEQ® XT 32 to both subwoofers together.

: when 480i/576i signals are input

For example, when an HDMI-compatible TV is connected to this unit with an HDMI cable, input signals other than HDMI video signals are automatically converted to HDMI signals that are then output from the HDMI connector to the TV. Only one type of video signals is output, so video signals output from this unit to the TV do not change even when the source for playback is switched to a device that outputs video signals in a different format, which allows you to continue with playback without the need to switch the video input source on the TV. Furthermore, the video quality improves because analog video signals such as video and component video signals that are input to this unit are converted to digital HDMI video signals with a higher resolution for output. When a TV does not support the HDMI connection, make an analog connection between this unit and the TV for video signals. This unit cannot convert HDMI input signals to analog video signals, so when signals are input from an HDMI device, use the component video input connector or video input connector. In this case, the component video signals that are input to this unit are converted to video signals.

Important information

Make Settings as Necessary

If you do not want this unit to convert video signals automatically, use the following setting item to disable this function.

“Video Conversion” (vpage 131)

If you want to change the resolution of video signals output to the TV, use the following setting item to do so.

“Resolution” (vpage 132)

The video conversion function supports the NTSC, PAL, SECAM, NTSC 4.43, PAL-N, PAL-M and PAL-60 formats.

Resolutions of HDMI-compatible TVs can be checked at “Video” – “HDMI Monitor 1” or “HDMI Monitor 2” (vpage 153).

NOTE

While signals are being upscaled to 4K, the menu screen is only displayed on a TV that is connected to this unit via HDMI.

When a non-standard video signal from a game machine or some other source is input, the video conversion function might not operate.

Connecting an HDMI-compatible device

You can connect up to ten HDMI-compatible devices (7-inputs/3-outputs) to the unit.

When a TV is connected to the HDMI ZONE4 OUT connector, you can play back a video or audio from the device connected to the HDMI 1 – 6 IN connector in ZONE4 (vpage 111).

If the device connected to this unit is equipped with an HDMI connector, it is recommended to use HDMI connections. Connections with an HDMI cable offer the following benefits that can not be achieved with other connection methods.

High quality playback by transmitting audio and video via digital signals

HDMI connections can transmit high definition video and high quality audio formats adopted by Bluray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, dts-HD, dts-HD Master Audio).

HDMI connections also convey information required for playback between devices. The information is used for copyright protection and TV resolution recognition, the ARC function, the HDMI control function, etc.

Transmission of audio and video signals with a single HDMI cable

Previous connections require multiple audio and video cables, but HDMI connections require only a single HDMI cable to transmit audio and video signals. This allows wires in a home theater system, which tend to be complicated, to be more organized.

Mutual control through the HDMI control function (vpage 102)

This unit and the HDMI device connected via HDMI can be linked to perform operations such as power control, volume control, and input source switching.

Other video and audio functions, such as 3D video playback, Content Type, the ARC function, are supported (vpage 13).

There is more than one version of HDMI standard. The supported functions and the performance vary according to the version. This unit complies with the HDMI standard, supporting the ARC and 3D playback functions. To enjoy these functions, the HDMI device connected to this unit also needs to use the same version of the standard. For the version of the HDMI standard on the device connected to this unit, see the device’s manual.

Some TVs do not support audio input via HDMI connections. For details, see your TV’s manual.

If a TV without the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, video signals of the playback device connected to this unit are transmitted to the TV, but this unit can not play back the audio from the TV. If you want to enjoy surround audio for TV program, a separate audio cable connection is required.

In contrast, if a TV with the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, no audio cable connection required. Audio signals from the TV can be input to this unit through the HDMI cable between this

and the TV. This function allows you to enjoy surround playback on this unit for the TV.

When the ARC function is used, connect a device with a “Standard HDMI cable with Ethernet” or “High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet” for HDMI.

Refer to the owner’s manual for your TV for details about TV connection and settings.

NOTE

The HDMI ZONE4 OUT connector is not compatible with the ARC function.

Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case, switch the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.

When this unit and monitor are connected with an HDMI cable, if the monitor is not compatible with HDMI audio signal playback, only the video signals are output to the monitor. Make audio connections (vpage 16 “Connecting a TV”).

Connecting an HDMI-compatible device

NOTE

The HDMI 7 / MHL connector on the front panel does not support the HDMI ZONE4 function.

The audio signal from the HDMI output connector (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may be limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs.

When connecting a TV that does not support the ARC function, an audio cable connection is required in addition to the HDMI cable. In this case, refer to “Connecting a TV” (vpage 16) for the connection method.

For the ARC function, see “About ARC (Audio Return Channel) function” (vpage 10).

Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector

The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) method is also used for video transmission via digital signals. This is developed mainly for computers, and some AV devices such as projectors are equipped with this interface. To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion cable, which converts HDMI video signals to DVI signals.

The DVI-D connector can transmit high quality digital signals, but the copy guard and other issues may hinder normal operations for some device combinations.

NOTE

No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make audio connections as described in “Connecting a TV” (vpage 16).

Signals cannot be output to DVI-D devices that do not support HDCP.

Depending on the combination of devices, the video signals may not be output.

Settings required when using a TV that supports the ARC function

When using a TV that supports the ARC function, make the following settings.

Set “HDMI Control” (vpage 130) to “On”.

Set “Control Monitor” (vpage 130) to match the number of the HDMI MONITOR connector connected to the TV that supports the ARC function.

NOTE

If the TV that supports the ARC function is connected to both HDMI MONITOR 1 and HDMI MONITOR 2 connectors, you cannot use ARC function at the same time.

Connecting an HDMI-compatible device

HDMI function

This unit supports the following HDMI functions:

nnAbout 3D function

This unit supports input and output of 3D (3 dimensional) video signals of HDMI.

To play back 3D video, you need a TV and player that provide support for the HDMI 3D function and a pair of 3D glasses.

NOTE

When playing back 3D video, refer to the instructions provided in the manual of your playback device together with this manual.

When playing back 3D video content, the menu screen or status display screen can be superimposed over the image. However, the menu screen or status display screen cannot be superimposed over certain 3D video content.

If 3D video with no 3D information is input, the menu screen and status display on this unit are displayed over the playback video.

If 2D video is converted to 3D video on the television, the menu screen and status display on this unit are not displayed correctly. To view the menu screen and status display on this unit correctly, turn the television setting that converts 2D video to 3D video off.

nnAbout 4K function

This unit supports input and output of 4K (3840 x 2160 pixels) video signals of HDMI.

When a device supporting 4K is connected, use a cable compatible with “High Speed HDMI cable” or “High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet”.

nnHDMI pass through function (vpage 130)

Signals input to the HDMI input connector are output to the television or other device connected to the HDMI output connector, even if the power of this unit is in standby.

vSee overleaf

NOTE

The Denon Link HD connector is not an audio signal input connector. Audio signals cannot be played back only by making a connection with the Denon Link HD connector.

nnHDMI control function (vpage 102)

This function allows you to operate external devices from the unit and operate the unit from external devices.

NOTE

The HDMI control function may not work depending on the device it is connected to and its settings.

You cannot operate a TV or Blu-ray Disc player/DVD player that is not compatible with the HDMI control function.

The HDMI ZONE4 function is compatible with the HDMI control function. To enable the HDMI control for the ZONE4 HDMI monitor, set “Control Monitor” (vpage 130) to “ZONE4”.

nnAbout Content Type

This function was added with the HDMI standard. It automatically makes settings suitable for the videooutput type (content information).

NOTE

To enable the Content Type, set “Video Mode” to “Auto” (vpage 131).

Connecting an HDMI-compatible device

nnDeep Color (vpage 193)

When a device supporting Deep Color is connected, use a cable compatible with “High Speed HDMI cable” or “High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet”.

nnAuto Lip Sync (vpage 129, 193)

Copyright protection system

In order to play back digital video and audio such as BD-Video or DVD-Video via HDMI connection, both this unit and TV or the player need to support the copyright protection system known as HDCP (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copyright protection technology comprised of data encryption and authentication of the connected AV devices. This unit supports HDCP.

If a device that does not support HDCP is connected, video and audio are not output correctly. Read the owner’s manual of your television or player for more information.

Settings related to HDMI connections

Set as necessary. For details, see the respective reference pages.

nnHDMI Setup (vpage 129)

Changing the source assigned to connectors

This unit can change the source that is assigned to the HDMI IN, DIGITAL AUDIO IN, COMPONENT VIDEO IN, VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN connectors.

Let us take a digital audio connection for Blu-ray Disc players for an example. The rear panel digital audio input connectors do not have the input connector indication for Blu-ray disc players (Blu-ray). However, DIGITAL AUDIO IN connectors have the “ASSIGNABLE” indication, which means that you can change the source assigned to these connectors. You can assign Blu-ray disc players to these connectors to use them for Blu-ray disc players. Select “Blu-ray” when switching functions on this unit to play back the source connected to these connectors.

Connecting an iPod or USB memory device to the iPod/USB port

You can enjoy music stored on an iPod or USB memory device.

For operating instructions see “Playing an iPod” (vpage 44) or “Playing a USB memory device” (vpage 47).

DENON does not guarantee that all USB memory devices will operate or receive power. When using a portable USB connection type HDD of the kind to which an AC adapter can be connected to supply power, use the AC adapter.

NOTE

You cannot use the USB ports on the front panel and rear panel simultaneously. Select and connect the USB port to use (vpage 76).

USB memory devices will not work via a USB hub.

It is not possible to use this unit by connecting the unit’s iPod/USB port to a PC via a USB cable.

Do not use an extension cable when connecting a USB memory device. This may cause radio interference with other devices.

When connecting an iPhone to this unit, keep the iPhone at least 20 cm away from this unit. If the iPhone is kept closer to this unit and a telephone call is received by the iPhone, noise may be output from this device.

If the iPod is connected using an iPod cable (commercially available) that is longer than 6.6 ft (2 m), sound may not be played correctly. In this case, use a genuine iPod cable, or a cable that is shorter than 3.3 ft (1 m).

(MM cartridge)

 

 

 

 

This unit is compatible with record players with an MM cartridge. When you connect to a record player with an MC cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer.

If you set this unit’s input source to “PHONO” and increase the volume without connecting the record player, there may be a “booming” noise from the speakers.

NOTE

The SIGNAL GND terminal of this unit is not a safety ground connection. Connect it to reduce noise when noise is excessive. Note that depending on the record player, connecting the ground line may have the reverse effect of increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the ground line.

Make sure the AM loop antenna lead terminals do not touch metal parts of the panel.

If the signal has noise interference, connect the ground terminal (GND) to reduce noise.

If you are unable to receive a good broadcast signal, we recommend installing an outdoor antenna. For details, inquire at the retail store where you purchased the unit.
