A
Adobe RGB color, Adobe YCC601 color
Like “x.v.Color”, each of these color spaces defines a palette of available colors that is larger than the traditional RGB color model.
AirPlay
AirPlay sends (plays) contents recorded in iTunes or on an iPhone/iPod touch/iPad to a compatible device via the network.
AL24 Processing Plus
AL24 Processing for All Channels
DENON has further developed its proprietary AL24 Processing, an analog waveform reproduction technology, to support the 192 kHz sampling frequency. AL24 Processing Plus, thoroughly suppresses quantization noise associated with D/A conversion of LPCM signals to reproduce the low- level signals with optimum clarity that will bring out all the delicate nuances of the music.
Equipped foe not only front left and right channels but also for the surround left and right, center and subwoofer channels.

Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion™
Realistic reproduction of sound relies on the ability of audio systems to match human hearing performance. Three key requirements are: (1) frequency response, (2) dynamic range, and (3) accurate spatial reproduction. The requirements for frequency response have already been surpassed with sampling rates that exceed human hearing. The dynamic range limits of human perception have also been met with current digital audio systems operating capable of signal to noise ratios that approach 120 dB. Accurate spatial sound rendering, however, has not yet reached the limits of perception as human perception relies on the combination of sounds arriving from many more directions than what

The Left (L) and Right (R) front loudspeakers should be placed at ±30° relative to the central listening position. The Center (C) loudspeaker should be at 0° and the surround loudspeakers (SL, SR) should be placed between 100° and 120°. All loudspeakers must be equidistant from the center listening position or compensated with time delay if that is not possible. A separate

Adding more channels to a surround system is not for special effects. Accurate spatial sound reproduction requires rendering of directional sound cues and
Research in the perception of auditory source width has shown that there are strong preferences in the direction of refl ected sound and the perception of soundstage width and spaciousness. The single most important direction of
Adding surround channels behind the listener has a very small impact compared to the increase in envelopment and soundstage width that the front wide channels will provide.
After side refl ections, the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues come from refl ections above the front stage. Audyssey DSX™ provides a pair of Height channels (LH and RH) at a ±45° azimuth angle and elevated to a 45° angle in the median plane.
In addition to creating new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX™ also provides Surround Processing to enhance the envelopment of the Surround and Back Surround channels (if present). Audyssey DSX™ Surround Processing analyzes the standard surround signals in the time and frequency domains to improve the perceived sense of envelopment and blending with the other speakers in the surround system.
Audyssey DSX™ is a scalable system that can adapt to the practical needs of the user. The first level of surround stage enhancement comes from adding the Wide channels. The second level comes from adding the Height channels. If it is practical to have both Wides and Heights then the surround performance will be further enhanced. Audyssey DSX™ automatically reconfigures its processing to optimize surround rendering over any number of available speakers beyond that of
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® XT to provide
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® XT
MultEQ® XT 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® XT 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.
Auto Lip Sync
If you connect the unit to a TV that supports the Auto Lip Sync function, it can automatically correct delay between the audio and video.

Deep Color
This technology allows expression of more number of colors than the conventional 8 bits and can reproduce colors close to natural ones without color streak.

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 frequencies.
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.
A realistic, powerful sense of presence is achieved when playing movie sources in AV rooms as well.
