■Adjustable Cross-Over Switching

The AVR-1803 supports subwoofer cross-over switching with a choice of 3 cross-over frequencies: 80, 100, and 120. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to the main speaker system.

■Multi Source Function

The AVR-1803 provides a Multi OUT terminal. The Multi Source function lets you enjoy one program source in a second room, or area, while another source is playing in the main room.

■6-Channel Input For DVD-Audio or SACD

■Support for Multi Zone Configurations

The AVR-1803 provides a Multi Zone Output function and a Select function that let you output different sources to multiple zones. Sources can be selected for output to up to 1 additional zone, in addition to the main room. Multi-room Zone can have variable pre-amp output.

The AVR-1803’s Power Amplifier Assign function lets you assign the Surround Back (SB A/B) amplifier channels to instead drive the Multi-room Zone powered speaker outputs, with 110 Watts per channel power output capability, while still providing 5 full amplifier channels to drive the main and surround speakers in the home theater room.

■Video Select Switch

This function lets you select video sources independently of the audio sources.

■All-channel Level Control

■Binding Post Speaker Terminals for All Channels

■Personal Memory Plus

The handy Personal Memory Plus function allows you to store the surround mode, the level settings for all speakers, as well as the delay time, to further customize the sound source. Simply push any source button and it will instantly display the settings stored for that source.

■Multi-function Remote Controller

•Self-illuminated GLO-KEY Remote Controller with Easy Recognition Layout

•Pre-Memory Function for non-DENON components

■Frequency Synthesis Tuning

•40-Station AM/FM Random Preset Memory Tuning

•Auto Preset Memory

■Other Features

•Cinema Equalizer

•Tone Control
