AVR-1804

■DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1 / Matrix 6.1) and DTS NEO:6 Decoder

■Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Digital EX Decoder

■6 Channel Stereo Mode

DENON's popular 6 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 six speakers. This 6 Channel Stereo mode was originally developed by DENON to enhance music lovers' enjoyment of home theater ambience.

■Virtual Surround Mode

Surround yourself with sensational 3D soundfield envelopment using just one pair of speakers. The AVR-1804's Virtual Surround mode provides a dramatic psychoacoustic surround sound effect, using two speakers with all sources.

■DENON DSP Surround Modes Add Listening Excitement

Put yourself in the middle of your favorite concert hall and music environments with DENON's DSP acoustic environment simulation modes. These DSP modes add spacious surround sound enhancements to your favorite music and video sources.

■Adjustable Cross-Over Switching

The AVR-1804 supports subwoofer cross-over switching with a choice of 4 cross-over frequencies: 80, 100, 120 and 150. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to the main speaker system.

■Support for Multi-Zone Configurations

The AVR-1804 provides a Multi Zone Output function and a Select function that let you output different surces to multiple zones. Sources can be selected for output to an additional zone, in addition to the main room.
