Denon AVR-2808CI Stereo System User Manual


 
DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 is a digital audio format enabling high sound quality
playback in 5.1-channels with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz and 24
bit quantization on DVD-Video.
Neural Surround™, a breakthrough in audio technology, will bring the
excitement of surround music to more of America’s listening audience.
It provides the rich envelopment and discrete image detail of surround
sound in a format 100 % compatible with stereo. With superior
spectral resolution and channel separation, Neural Surround™ draws
the brain’s attention to sonic details in musical instruments, vocals,
and ambience that are typically masked by other playback systems.
This allows the listener to fully experience the richness and subtleties
in recorded performance as never before. As the chosen format for XM
Satellite Radio’s new XM HD surround programming, Neural Surround
will help deliver more surround music to more listeners than any other
broadcast format. XM Satellite Radio will be the first radio company to
broadcast surround sound on the radio 24 hours a day and will offer
three channels fully dedicated to Neural Surround™ music. This alone
will amount to more than 25,000 hours of Neural Surround™ music
each year.

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 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 music.
Equipped foe not only front left and right channels but also for the
surround left and right, center and subwoofer channels.

HDMI
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a digital interface standard for next generation TVs based
on DVI (Digital Visual Interface) standards and optimized for use in
consumer equipment.
Non-compressed digital video and multi-channel audio signals are
transmitted with a single connection.
HDMI is also compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents
Protection), a technology for protecting copyrights that encrypts digital
video signals in the same was as with DVI.
“HDMI”, “HDMI logo” and “High-Definition Multimedia Interface”

LLC.
Deep Color
Eliminates on-screen color banding, for smooth tonal transitions and
subtle gradations between colors.
Enables increased contrast ratio.
Can represent many times more shades of gray between black and
white.
At 30-bit pixel depth, a four times improvement would be the minimum,
and the typical improvement would be eight times or more.
xvYCC
Next-generation “xvYCC” color space supports 1.8 times as many
colors as existing HDTV signals.
Lets HDTVs display colors more accurately.
Enables displays with natural, vivid colors.
Lip Sync
Because consumer electronics devices are using increasingly
complex digital signal processing to enhance the clarity and detail of
the content, synchronization of video and audio in user devices has
become a greater challenge and could potentially require complex end-
user adjustments. HDMI 1.3 incorporates an automatic video/audio
synching capability that allows devices to perform this synchronization
automatically with total accuracy.

Audyssey MultEQ
®
XT is the first technology to properly measure
sound information throughout a listening area, then combine this
information to accurately represent the acoustical problems in
the room. Based on these measurements, MultEQ XT calculates
an equalization solution that corrects for both time and frequency
response problems in every seat.
Audyssey MultEQ XT not only corrects frequency response problem
in a large listening area, it also performs a fully automated surround
system setup.
