Features
• Discrete subwoofers and Audyssey Sub EQ HT™ (vpage 173)
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® XT32 to both
subwoofers together for improved deep bass response and detail.

High quality sound
• With discrete circuit technology, the power amplifier provides
identical quality for all 7-channels (165 Watts x 7-channels)
For optimum realism and stunning dynamic range, the power amplifier
section features discrete power devices (not integrated circuitry).
By using high current, high power discrete power devices, the amplifier
is able to easily drive high quality speakers.

• DTS Neo:X (vpage 108)
This technology enables the playback of 2-channel source audio or
7.1/5.1 multi-channel source audio through a maximum 9.1-channel
speakers, achieving an even broader soundstage.

• Audyssey DSX® (vpage 159)
This unit is equipped with Audyssey DSX® processor. By connecting
front height speakers to this unit and playing back with Audyssey
DSX® processing you can experience a more vertically expansive front
soundstage. By connecting two front wide speakers, you can experience
a wider and more expanded front soundstage.

• Denon’s unique high quality playback technology “Denon Link HD”
(vpage 43)
This unit is equipped with our exclusive Denon Link HD technology.
When connected to a Denon disc player that has Denon Link HD, the
sound localization becomes more precise, with increased detail and
definition. The system works by carrying the critical clock timing signals
via the dedicated Denon Link HD connection, minimizing the jitter caused
by conventional digital connections.

• Audyssey LFC™ (Low Frequency Containment) (vpage 158)
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.

Speaker connection
Install speakers and connect them to this unit (vpage 25, 28).

Speaker installation
Determine the speaker system depending on the number of speakers you
are using and install each speaker and subwoofer in the room. Here, we
explain how to install the speakers using a typical example.
FHL

FHR

FL
FWL

FL/FR : Place the FRONT left and right speakers an equal distance from
the main listening position. The distance between each speaker
and your TV should also be the same.
C : Place the CENTER speaker in between the front speakers and above
or below your TV.
SL/SR : Place the SURROUND left and right speakers an equal distance
to the left and right sides of the main listening position. If you
don’t have Surround Back speakers, move the surround speakers
slightly behind your listening position.
SBL/SBR (SB) : 
Place the SURROUND BACK left and right speakers
an equal distance from the main listening position and
directly behind the main listening position. If you only
have one Surround Back speaker, center it.
FHL/FHR : Place the FRONT HEIGHT left and right speakers just outside
of the front left and right speakers. Mount them as close to the
ceiling as possible and aim them towards the main listening
position.
FWL/FWR : Place the FRONT WIDE left and right speakers outside of the
front left and right speakers so that there is an equal distance
between all front speakers.
SW : 
Place the SUBWOOFER at a convenient location near the front
speakers. If you have two subwoofers, place them symmetrically
across the front of your room.

Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to this unit, and be
sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.

Here we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using typical examples.
NOTE
• Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the
speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer.
• Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker
terminal. The protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear
panel or if the + and – sides touch each other (vpage 250 “Protection circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so
could result in electric shock. When the “Setup Assistant” is running, follow the
instructions in the “Setup Assistant” screen for making connections. (Power is not
supplied to the speaker terminals while the “Setup Assistant” is running.)
• Use speakers with an impedance of 6 – 16 Ω/ohms.

22About the Bi-amp connection

Some audiophile loudspeakers can be connected to an amplifier with two separate amp-to-speaker connections per each speaker. One amplifier
channel’s output is hooked up to the speaker’s bass driver (woofer), while the other amplifier drives the upper range transducers (tweeter, or in
some cases midrange and tweeter). This connection method has one amplifier channel driving one half of the bi-amp speaker, and avoids electrical
interference between the speaker’s bass and treble drivers and the driving amplifier channels. You can assign 4 amp channels to connect to one pair
of bi-amp capable speakers. Bi-amp capable speakers always have two sets of speaker input connector pairs, one for the bass range and one for
the treble range. If you’re unsure about whether or not your speakers are bi-amp capable, consult the owner’s manual that came with the speakers.
• For how to connect the center and surround speaker and the subwoofer to this unit, see “Connecting 11.1-channel speakers” (vpage 31).

22Connecting an external power amplifier

• You can use this unit as a pre-amp by connecting an external power amplifier to the PRE OUT connectors. Adding an external power amplifier with
a higher power output rating than this unit may be beneficial with loudspeakers that have lower efficiency and/or lower impedances, or to reach
higher volume levels.
• Select the terminal to use and connect the device.

• When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following
functions:
• Built-in DHCP server
This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.
• Built-in 100BASE-TX switch
When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed
of 100 Mbps or greater.
• Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is easily available at electronics
stores (CAT-5 or greater recommended).
• The normal shielded-type LAN cable is recommended. If a flat-type cable or
unshielded-type cable is used, other devices could be affected by noise.
NOTE
• The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact your ISP or a
computer shop for details.
• This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible router is required if
you have a contract for a type of line set by PPPoE.
• Do not connect an NETWORK connector directly to the LAN port/ Ethernet
connector on your computer.

Description
This mode can be selected when the Dolby Pro Logic gx decoder is used to play back 2-channel sources in 6.1/7.1-channel
surround sound including the surround back channel(s).
By adding the surround back channel(s), a more enveloping surround environment is produced, compared to Dolby Pro
Logic g.
There are three playback modes: “Cinema” mode that is optimized for movie playback, “Music” mode that is optimized
for music playback, and “Game” mode that is optimized for game play.
This mode can be selected when the Dolby Pro Logic g decoder is used to play back 2-channel sources in 5.1-channel
surround sound with an enveloping surround sound experience.
This mode can be selected when the Dolby Pro Logic gz decoder is used to play back 2-channel sources in 7.1-channel
surround sound with added front height channels.
By adding front height channels, the front soundstage becomes dramatically taller, simulating the effect of listening in
a large movie theater or concert hall.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded with Dolby Digital.
Using the Dolby Digital EX decoder, this mode plays Dolby Digital sources in 6.1/7.1-channel surround sound with added
surround back channel(s).
By adding surround back speaker(s), sounds can be heard coming at you from behind and not just from the sides.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded in Dolby TrueHD.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded with Dolby Digital Plus.

This can be selected when “Speaker Config.” – “Surr. Back” (vpage 184) is not set to “None”.
This can be selected when “Speaker Config.” – “Front Height” (vpage 185) is not set to “None”.

Description
This matrix decoding technology uses the DTS NEO:X decoder to playback 2-channel source or 5.1/6.1/7.1-channel
surround sound including the surround back channel.
There are 3 modes: “Music” suited for playing music, “Cinema” suited for playing movies, and “Game” which is
optimized for playing games.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded in DTS.
This mode is suitable for playing discs recorded in DTS-ES. The surround back channel added using the discrete method
is played as an independent channel.
Since all channels are independent, the 360-degree spacial expressiveness and sound localization are enhanced.
This mode is suitable for playing discs recorded in DTS-ES.
The surround back channel added to the surround-left and surround-right channels by a matrix encoder at software
recording time is decoded by this unit’s matrix decoder and played from each channel (surround left, surround right,
surround back).
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded in DTS 96/24.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded in DTS-HD.
This mode can be selected when playing sources recorded in DTS Express.

This mode cannot be selected when DSD signals from Super Audio CD are input.
This mode can be selected when only one surround back speaker is used and no front height speaker is used.
This can be selected when “Speaker Config.” – “Surr. Back” (vpage 184) is set to “1 spkr”.

Restorer

Appendix

Audio Delay

Compressed audio formats such as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio)
and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal
components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The “Restorer”
function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the
sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression.
It also restores the original bass characteristics for a rich and expanded
tonal range.

While viewing video, manually adjust the time to delay audio output so
that the video and audio are synchronized.

22MultEQ® XT32

Tips

22Dynamic EQ

MultEQ® XT32 compensates for both time and frequency characteristics
of the listening area based on Audyssey® Setup measurement results.
Selection is done from three types of compensation curves. We
recommend the “Audyssey” setting.
Audyssey (Default) : Optimize the frequency response of all speakers.
Audyssey Byp. L/R : Optimize frequency response of speakers except
front L and R speakers.
Audyssey Flat : Optimize frequency response of all speakers to flat
response.
Graphic EQ : 
Apply frequency response set with “Graphic EQ”
(vpage 160).
Off : T
 urn “MultEQ® XT32” equalizer off.

Solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is
decreased by taking into account human perception and room
acoustics. Works with MultEQ® XT32.
On (Default) : Use Dynamic EQ.
Off : Do not use Dynamic EQ.

22Reference Level Offset

Tips

22Dynamic Volume

Audyssey Dynamic EQ® is referenced to the standard film mix level. It
makes adjustments to maintain the reference response and surround
envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However,
film reference level is not always used in music or other non-film
content. Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides three offsets
from the film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be
selected when the mix level of the content is not within the standard.
Recommended setting levels are shown at below.
0dB (Film Ref) (Default) : This is the default setting and should be used
when listening to movies.
5dB : Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic
range, such as classical music.
10dB : 
Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider
dynamic range. This setting should also be selected for TV
content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film reference.
15dB : Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program material
that is mixed at very high listening levels and has a compressed
dynamic range.

Solves the problem of large variations in volume level between TV,
movies and other content (between quiet passages and loud passages,
etc.) by automatically adjusting to the user’s preferred volume setting.
Heavy : Most adjustment to softest and loudest sounds.
Medium : Medium adjustment to loudest and softest sound.
Light : Least adjustment to loudest and softest sounds.
Off (Default) : Do not use “Dynamic Volume”.

%

• If “Dynamic Volume” is set to “Yes” in “Audyssey® Setup” (vpage 172),
the setting is automatically changed to “Medium”.

• Setting is enabled when “Dynamic EQ” (vpage 156) is “On”.

About 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.

Appendix

About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (A-DSX)
Audyssey DSX® is a scalable system that adds new speakers to
improve surround impression. Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey
DSX® first adds Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment.
Research in human hearing has proven that information from the
Wide channels is much more critical in the presentation of a realistic
soundstage than the Back Surround channels found in traditional 7.1
systems. Audyssey DSX® then creates a pair of Height channels to
reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues.
In addition to these new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX®
applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend
between the front and surround channels.

Provides more immersive surround sound by adding the new channels.
Wides : T
 urn on Audyssey DSX® processing for wide expansion.
Heights : Turn on Audyssey DSX® processing for height expansion.
Wides/Heights : Turns on Audyssey DSX® processing for wide and
height expansion.
Off (Default) : D

Speakers
The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called
“Audyssey® Setup”.
You do not have to perform Audyssey® Setup when you have already performed Speaker Calibration in Setup Assistant.
To set up the speakers manually, use “Manual Setup” (vpage 182) on the menu.

Audyssey® Setup

NOTE
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room
measurements. Close windows and turn off the power on electronic devices
(TVs, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, etc.). The measurements could be
affected by the sounds emitted by such devices.
• During the measurement process, place cell phones outside the listening room.
Cell phone signals could disrupt the measurements.
• Do not stand between the speakers and Setup and measurement microphone or
allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. Do not hold
the Setup and measurement microphone in your hand during measurements. This
will cause inaccurate readings.
• During the measurement process, audible test tones will come from the speakers
and subwoofer(s), but this is part of normal operation. If there is background noise
in the room, these test signals will increase in volume.
• Operating VOLUME df on the remote control unit or MASTER VOLUME on the
main unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements.
• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected. Unplug the
headphones before performing Audyssey® Setup.

To perform measurement, place the Setup and measurement microphone
in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we
recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the
illustration (up to eight positions).

%

• When performing Audyssey® Setup, Audyssey MultEQ® XT32/Audyssey Dynamic
EQ®/Audyssey Dynamic Volume®/Audyssey LFC™ functions become active

Tips
I want the volume not to become too loud by mistake.

• Set the volume upper limit for “Volume Limit” in the menu beforehand. This prevents children or others from increasing the volume too much by
mistake. You can set this for each zone (vpage 155, 196).

I want to keep the volume at the same level when I turn the power on.

• By default, the volume setting when power was previously set to standby is applied at next power on. To use a fixed volume level, set the volume level
at power on for “Volume Limit” in the menu. You can set this for each zone (vpage 155, 196).

I want to have the subwoofer always output audio.

• Depending on the input signals and sound mode, the subwoofer may not output audio.
When “Subwoofer Mode” in the menu is set to “LFE+Main”, you can have the subwoofer always output audio (vpage 188).

I want to make human voices in the movies clearer.
• Use “Dialog Level” in the menu to adjust the level (vpage 149).

I want to keep bass and clarity during playback at a lower volume level.

• Set “Dynamic EQ” in the menu to “On”. This setting corrects the frequency characteristics to allow you to enjoy clear sound without the bass being
lost even during playback at a lower volume level (vpage 156).

I want to automatically adjust the volume level difference in content such as TV and movies.

• Set “Dynamic Volume” in the menu. Volume level changes (between quiet scenes and loud scenes) in TV shows or movies are automatically adjusted
to your desired level (vpage 157).

I want to set the optimized listening environment after changing the configuration/position of the speakers or
changing a speaker to a new one.
• Perform Audyssey® Setup. This automatically makes the optimized speaker settings for the new listening environment (vpage 172).

I want to combine a desired video with the current music.

• Set “Video Select” in the option menu to “On”. You can combine the current music with your desired video source from Set-top Box or DVD, etc. while
listening to music from Tuner, CD, PHONO or the Internet radio (vpage 105).

I want to play back photos from Flickr at the same time while listening to the Internet radio.
• After playing back photos from Flickr, start the slide show on the Internet radio playback screen (vpage 104).

I want to delete unused input sources.

• Set unused input sources for “Hide Sources” in the menu. This allows you to skip unused input sources when rotating the SOURCE SELECT knob on
this unit (vpage 170).

I want to enjoy the same music in all zones at the home party, etc.

• Set “All Zone Stereo” in the option menu to “On”. This allows you to simultaneously play back in ZONE2 the music that is played back in MAIN ZONE
(vpage 107).

I want to minimize the delay in video signals when I’m playing a game on my game console.

• When the video is delayed against button operations with the controller on the game console, set “Video Mode” in the menu to “Game” (vpage 165).

How to add Wi-Fi to the AV receiver?

• Connect a wireless LAN converter (sold separately) to the NETWORK connector on this unit.

again.
• Please re-install this unit in a place having good ventilation.

250

Power turns off and the power
indicator flashes in red approx. every
0.5 seconds.

• Check the speaker connection. The protection circuit may have been activated because
speaker cable core wires came in contact with each other or a core wire was disconnected
from the connector and came in contact with the rear panel of this unit. After unplugging the
power cord, take corrective action such as firmly re-twisting the core wire or taking care of the
connector, and then reconnect the wire.
• Turn down the volume and turn on the power again.
• This unit’s amplifier circuit has failed. Turn off the power and please contact the Denon

About HDMI

• 3D
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.
• 4K
This unit supports input and output of 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 pixels)
video signals of HDMI.
• Content Type
It automatically makes settings suitable for the video output type
(content information).
• Adobe RGB color, Adobe YCC601 color
The color space defined by Adobe Systems Inc. Because it is a wider
color space than RGB, it can produce more vivid and natural images.
• sYCC601 color
Each of these color spaces defines a palette of available colors that is
larger than the traditional RGB color model.
• Auto Lip Sync
This function can automatically correct delay between the audio and
video.
Use a TV that is compatible with the Auto Lip Sync function.

HDMI is an abbreviation of High-Definition Multimedia Interface, which is
an AV digital interface that can be connected to a TV or amplifier.
With the HDMI connection, high definition video and high quality audio
formats adopted by Blu-ray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD,
DTS-HD, DTS-HD Master Audio) can be transmitted, which is not possible
with the analog video transmission.
Furthermore, in the HDMI connection, audio and video signals can
be transmitted through a single HDMI cable, while in conventional
connections it is necessary to provide audio and video cables separately
for connection between devices.
This allows you to simplify the wiring configuration that tends to be quite
complex in a home theater system.
This unit supports the following HDMI functions.
• Deep Color
An imaging technology supported by HDMI. Unlike RGB or YCbCr, which
uses 8 bits (256 shades) per color, it can use 10 bits (1024 shades), 12
bits (4096 shades), or 16 bits (65536 shades) to produce colors in higher
definition. Both devices linked via HDMI must support Deep Color.
• “x.v.Color”
This function lets HDTVs display colors more accurately. It enables
display with natural, vivid colors.
“x.v.Color” is trademark of Sony Corporation.

the HDMI input connector are output to a TV or other device that is
connected to the HDMI output connector.
• HDMI control
If you connect the unit and an HDMI control function compatible TV or
player with an HDMI cable and then enable the HDMI control function
setting on each device, the devices will be able to control each other.
• Power off link
This unit power off can be linked to the TV power off step.
• Audio output destination switching
From the TV, you can switch whether to output audio from the TV or
the AV amplifier.
• Volume adjustment
You can adjust this unit’s volume in the TV volume adjustment
operation.
• Input source switching
You can switch this unit input sources through linkage to TV input
switching.
When playing the player, this unit input source switches to the source
for that player.

• ARC (Audio Return Channel)
This function transmits audio signals from the TV to this unit through the
HDMI cable and plays back the audio from the TV on this unit based on
the HDMI control function.
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 is required.
Audio signals from the TV can be input to this unit through the HDMI
cable between this unit and the TV. This function allows you to enjoy
surround playback on this unit for the TV.

In order to play back digital video and audio such as BD-Video (Blu-ray
Disc) or DVD-Video via HDMI connection, both this unit and TV and the
player need to support the copyright protection system known as HDCP
(High-bandwidth 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.

Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion
(A-DSX)
Audyssey DSX® is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve
surround sound vividness.
Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX® first adds Wide channels for
the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human hearing has
proven that information from the Wide channels is much more critical
in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than the Back Surround
channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX® then creates a
pair of Height channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical
and perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels,
Audyssey DSX® applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the
blend between the front and surround channels.
Audyssey Dynamic Volume®
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.
Audyssey MultEQ® XT32
MultEQ® XT32 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®
XT32 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.

A
AirPlay
AirPlay sends (plays) contents recorded in iTunes or on an iPhone/iPod
touch/iPad to a compatible device via the network.
ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec)
This is a codec for lossless audio compression method developed by
Apple Inc. This codec can be played back on iTunes, iPod or iPhone. Data
compressed to approximately 60 – 70 % can be decompressed to exactly
the same original data.
App Store
App Store is a site that sells application software for such devices as the
iPhone or iPod Touch, and is operated by Apple Inc.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ®
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® XT32 to
provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

Dolby Digital Plus
Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is
compatible with up to 7.1-channels of discrete digital sound and also
improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is
upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater
flexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the
playback device.
Dolby Pro Logic g
Dolby Pro Logic g is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby
Laboratories.
Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to achieve
an excellent surround effect.
The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band
signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create
a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of presence for
all stereo sources.
Dolby Pro Logic gx
Dolby Pro Logic gx is a further improved version of the Dolby Pro Logic g
matrix decoding technology.
Audio signals recorded in 2-channels are decoded to achieve a natural
sound with up to 7.1-channels.
There are three modes: “Music” suited for playing music, “Cinema”
suited for playing movies, and “Game” which is optimized for playing
games.

D
DLNA
DLNA and DLNA CERTIFIED are trademarks and/or service marks of
Digital Living Network Alliance.
Some contents may not be compatible with other DLNA CERTIFIED®
products.
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby
Laboratories.
A total of 5.1-channels are played: 3 front channels (“FL”, “FR” and “C”),
2 surround channels (“SL” and “SR”) and the “LFE” channel for low
frequency effects.
Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic
sound field with a “three-dimensional” feeling (sense of distance,
movement and positioning) is achieved. This delivers a thrilling surround
sound experience in the home.
Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX is a 6.1-channel surround format from Dolby Laboratories
that allows users to enjoy in their homes the “DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND
EX” audio format jointly developed by Dolby Laboratories and Lucasfilm.
The 6.1-channels of sound, including surround back channel, provide
improved sound positioning and expansion of the surround sound field.

Sampling frequency
Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at
regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in
digitized format (producing a digital signal).
The number of readings taken in one second is called the “sampling
frequency”. The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to
the original.
Speaker impedance
This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω (Ohms). Greater power can
be obtained when this value is smaller.
