The DHT-485DV is a versatile A/V receiver and DVD Video player package that includes 6 satellite speakers and a 100W
active subwoofer. Since speakers must be carefully selected to bring out the full sound quality of the recording, DENON has
made the job easier by selecting the speakers for you. With Dolby Pro Logic IIx, the AVR-485 recreates existing Dolby
Surround programs and conventional stereo sources such as CD in realistic 6.1-channel likeness.
With this home theater package, you'll be ready to fire up your favorite video or music program in full surround sound.
DHT-485DV Home Theater Package with 6.1 Speakers and DVD Video Player
■ High-Quality Sound Reproduction
• NEW High Resolution 32bit Floating Point DSP
• 96 kHz Processing Circuit
■ 3 Sets of Component Video Inputs
The AVR-485, A/V Receiver, is equipped with 3 sets of component video inputs and 1set of
monitor outputs.
■ 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 mini-
mize interference on the signal and enable more faithful reproduction of
the original sound. The AVR-485 inherits these low-noise design from
higher-end models, like the highly acclaimed AVR-3805.
•
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 accurately 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. They have been
placed in a design that ensures mostly uniform temperatures throughout
the heatsink so that the output transistors for all channels can be driven
under uniform conditions. This in turn ensures that all channels respond
with equal performance to the demands of the audio signals.
■
Fully Discrete, Equal Power 6 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)
Surround Back 110 W (6 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.7 % THD)
For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-485 features high quality, wideband
audio amplification, providing 110 watts power output for each of the 6 main channels. A large
capacity power supply which includes a high current power transformer along with discrete power
output devices on all 6 amplifier channels for highest dynamic range and superb reproduction clarity.
■
Wide-Range Play Capability for DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD
The power amp circuits of the AVR-485 have been meticulously designed to reproduce the
exceptionally high sound quality with a 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 higher
frequencies 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-485 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency compo-
nents so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic
IIx, and DTS surround modes)
■
Personal Memory Plus, for Easy Operation
The AVR-485 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 receivers, the AVR-485 lets you adjust speaker configuration
delay times and other parameters so that you can customize the performance of the AVR-485 to
suit your own home theater and enhance operating 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.
* Some remote control codes may not be available for some products of other manufacturers and some DENON products.
