For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-485 features high

quality, wideband audio amplification, providing 75 watts power

output for each of the six main channels. A large capacity power supply

which

includes a high current power transformer along with discrete power

output devices on all six 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

exceptionally high sound quality with

a

wide frequency response

from 10 Hz to 100 kHz.

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 solid-

ly 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

, l

ike

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 sup-

ply ample current to

accurately

reproduce deep bass as well as sudden bursts

of

sound from percussion or other musical instruments.

• Large Aluminum Extruded Heatsink

DENON uses large heatsink made of extruded alu-

minum. 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 perfor-

mance to the demands of the audio signals.

■

Cinema Equalizer

The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats

emphasize high

er

frequen

cies

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 components 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 pro-

gram.

■

Acclaimed Customization Feature

As with all of DENON’s high-grade A/V receiver

s

, the AVR-485 lets you

adjust 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.
