For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-683 features high quality, wideband audio amplification, providing 110 watts power output for each of the five main channels. A large capacity power supply includes a high current power transformer along with discrete power output devices on all five amplifier channels for highest dynamic range and superb reproduction clarity.
■ Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder
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.
■ Dolby Digital and DTS Decoders
Equipped with both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel decoding, the AVR-683 provides thrilling surround sound with the thousands of Dolby Digital and DTS encoded DVDs, as well as the growing library of DTS 5.1 channel music recordings available on CD.
■ High-quality DSP
A high-quality 32-bit DSP “MELODY32” from Analog Devices has been used in the DSP processor, placing the AVR-683 at a higher rank than other models of this class in its ability to accurately decode and reproduce the superior quality of Dolby Pro Logic II.
■ Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats emphasizes high-frequency range due to a theater’s front speakers being placed behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-683 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS surround modes)
■ 5 Channel Stereo Mode
DENON's popular 5 Channel Stereo mode transforms your favorite 2-channel sources such as CD, tape, stereo radio and stereo video sources into exciting surround sound, free of delay effects and unnatural artifacts, from all five speakers.
