FEATURES
• Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected
A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched
when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either
turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components
to the input jacks.
• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER
terminals
The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals
include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are
greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is
turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is
changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will
be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait
until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.
• Whenever the unit is in the STANDBY state, the apparatus is
still connected on AC line voltage.
Please be sure to turn the power off (
£off) when you leave
home for, say, a vacation.
1. Dolby Digital
Using advanced digital processing algorithms, Dolby Digital
provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround
sound. Dolby Digital is the default digital audio delivery system for
DVD and North American DTV.
2. Dolby Pro Logic IIx compatibility
Dolby Pro Logic IIx furthers the matrix decording technology of
Dolby Pro Logic II to decode audio signals recorded on two
channels into up to 7.1 playback channels, including the surround
back channel. Dolby Pro Logic IIx also allows 5.1-channel sources
to be played in up to 7.1 channels.
The mode can be selected according to the source. The Music
mode is best suited for playing music,the Cinema mode for playing
movies, and the Game mode for playing games. The Game mode
can only be used with 2-channel audio sources.
3. Dolby Pro Logic II Game mode compatibility
In addition to the previously offered Music and Cinema modes, the
AVR-3805 also offers a Game mode optimum for games.
4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity
surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and
specially-encoded music discs.
5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6
The AVR-3805 can be decoded with DTS-ES Extended Surround, a
multi-channel format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc.
The AVR-3805 can be also decoded with DTS Neo:6, a surround
mode allowing 6.1 channels playback of regular stereo sources.
6. DTS 96/24 compatibility
The AVR-3805 can be decoded with sources recorded in DTS
96/24, a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital
Theater Systems Inc.
DTS 96/24 sources can be played in the multi-channel mode on the
AVR-3805 with high sound quality of 96 kHz/24 bits or 88.2 kHz/24
bits.
7. HDCD decoder equipped
Connection with a player that supports HDCD playback allows
the features of HDCD to be extracted, namely the
characteristics of high resolution and low distortion, and fusion
with the digital technology that is contained in the AVR-3805
allows for the exhibition of the high sound quality of HDCD.
8. DENON LINK
The connection of one cable to our DVD player, which supports
digital transfer, permits the digital transfer of DVD audio, and
DVD multi-channel audio for an enjoyable experience of higher
sound quality digital sound with low transfer losses.
9. NEW D.D.S.C-Digital
New 32-bit floating point DSP is used for digital transfer
processing. Furthermore, operation of D/A and DIR at up to
192 kHz supports the digital transfer of DVD audio by DENON
LINK.
10.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 of DVD-Audio,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 signals with optimum clarity that will bring out all the delicate
nuances of the music.
Equipped for not only the front left and right channels but also for
the surround left and right, center and subwoofer channels.
11.Auto Setup/Room EQ
Use of the optional microphone for setup applications
measures the presence of speakers, the distance to the
speakers, and other information, and permits automatic setup.
The characteristics of each speaker can also be corrected.
Auto setup requires an optional microphone for setup use.
12.Dual Surround Speaker Mode
Provides for the first time the ability to optimize surround sound
reproduction using two different types of surround sound speakers
as well as two different surround speaker positions:
(1) Movie Surround
Motion picture soundtracks use the surround channel(s) to
provide the ambient elements of the acoustic environment they
want the audience to realize. This is best accomplished by the
use of specially-designed surround speakers that offer a wide
diffusion pattern (bipolar dispersion) or by using surround
speakers that provide broad dispersion with a minimum of on-
axis localization (dipolar dispersion). Side wall mounting (closer
to the ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the greatest
envelopment, minimizing localization of direct sound from the
speakers.
(2) Music Surround
With full range discrete surround channels, as well as three
discrete full range front channels, digital formats such as Dolby
and DTS offer thrilling surround sound music listening.
Producers of multi-channel discrete digital music recordings
almost always favor the use of direct radiating (monopolar)
surround speakers, placed in the rear corners of the room,
since that is how they configure their studios during the
mixing/creation process.
The DENON AVR-3805 provides the ability to connect two
different sets of surround speakers, and place them in the
appropriate locations in your AV theater room, so that you can
enjoy both movie soundtracks and music listening, with optimum
results and no compromise.
13.Multi Zone Music Entertainment System
Multi Source Function:
This unit’s Multi Source function lets you select different audio
sources for listening Different sources can thus be enjoyed in the
main room (MAIN) and the subroom (ZONE2 and ZONE3)
simultaneously.
