■DENON's Basic Design for High-Quality Sound Reproduction
• Power Transformer for High Power Driven

The chassis that supports the large transformer has been designed to absorb vibration, and the transformer is housed inside a highly rigid frame to secure it more solidly to the chassis. In addition, a cushioning material has been placed around the core of the transformer to minimize interference on the signal and enable more faithful reproduction of the original sound. The AVR-484 inherits these low-noise design from higher-end models not to mention the use of short ring.

• Twin Drive Rectifier

DENON's Twin Drive Rectifier design uses two rectifying diodes in parallel to bring out the maximum potential of the large transformer. Since the rectifiers recharge the large block capacitors at low impedance, they are able to supply ample current to reproduce deep basses as well as sudden bursts of sound from percussion or other musical instruments.

• Large Aluminum Extruded Heatsink

DENON uses large heatsink made of extruded aluminum. It has been placed in a design that ensures mostly uniform temperatures throughout the heatsink. This in turn ensures that all channels respond with equal performance to the demands of the audio signals.

■Fully Discrete, Equal Power Five Amplifier Channels, 110 Watts Each

Front

110 W + 110 W (6 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.7 % THD)

Center

110 W

(6 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.7 % THD)

Surround

110 W + 110 W

(6 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.7 % THD)

For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-484 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 the highest dynamic range and superb reproduction clarity.

■24 bit High Resolution DSP
■24 bit, 96 kHz High Resolution D/A Conversion
■Wide-Range Play Capability for DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD

The power amp circuits of the AVR-484 have been meticulously designed to reproduce the exceptionally high sound quality with wide frequency response from 10 Hz to 100 kHz.

■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-484 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)

■Personal Memory Plus, for Easy Operation

The AVR-484 includes the Personal Memory Plus function that automatically remembers the surround mode you last used for each

program source, so that you do not need to select the mode again for that program.

■Acclaimed Customization Feature

As with all of DENON’s high-grade A/V receiver, the AVR-484 lets you adjust delay times and other parameters so that you can customize the performance of the AVR-484 to suit your own home theater and enhance operat-

ing ease. The adjustments are easy to make via a dialog format on the fluorescent display on the front panel. These customized features are then stored, for each source input and surround mode, in Personal Memory Plus so constant readjustments are not required.

■Multi-Function Preset Memory Remote Controller with Glo-keys

The supplied system remote controller features a large selection of remote control codes to operate other components in your home theater system, including codes for selected DENON models, along with remote control codes from other manufacturers. The most frequently used buttons are laid out separately for TV, VCR and DVD, for maximum ease-of-use.

* Remote control codes may not be available for some products of other manufacturers.

■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.
