DPR 1001 7 x 50W Digital Path Receiver Pure digital. Once again, Harman Kardon breaks the rules and sets a new standard for advanced technology. This time we've leapfrogged conventional technology to create the first true digital path A/V receiver. Simply put, the audio signal remains digital all the way from the disc through to the digital amplifiers. This unique, all-digital approach results in a dramatically smaller form factor, much cooler operating temperatures, enhanced reliability, and flexibility in output assignment. At the heart of the DPR 1001 is a sophisticated audio/video switching, control and decoding system. Choose from Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX 6.1, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS 5.1 and DTS-ES. Also available are DTS Neo:6, Logic 7 and VMAx. Select HDTV sources or progressive scan DVD players without compromising picture quality, thanks to wide-bandwidth component video switching. You can send separate audio and video programs to a second room in your house. Digital bass management options include a Triple Crossover system and full control over the "Direct" inputs for use with DVD-Audio and SACD players. If you enjoy owning the latest technology - or if you simply want an extremely compact and stunningly styled receiver - consider the DPR 1001. DPR Remote Controller Not just another "universal" remote. The DPR's internal sophistication is further enhanced with the external simplicity of a completely new remote control design. With the EzSet feature, the DPR remote makes surround sound level setup a breeze. It includes a built-in sound pressure level meter and calibration system that takes the complexity out of balancing your multichannel system. And instead of having to look up codes and enter numbers, you just "tell" the DPR remote the brands of your TV and other components and it does the rest, thanks to internal firmware programming. When you select a source other than the DPR 1001, the remote's backlit, two-line LCD screen shows you the function for each button you select. No more guessing. No more "oops." The digital path to reality. Until recently, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) amplifiers were used mostly in subwoofer systems and entry-level DVD/receiver combinations. They simply didn't have the musicality necessary for quality reproduction across the full audio spectrum. As in every other area of digital engineering, nothing stays the same for long. Harman Kardon engineers have tapped into the very latest advances in PWM, including multiple pole-zero feedback systems, increased sampling speeds in excess of 350kHz and new logic chip designs, to harness the potential of Pulse Width Modulation in our DPR 1001.
