The First Name In Digital Audio AVR-1700 The Full Discrete 5-channel Equal Power Amplifier AVR-1700 offers a full discrete 5-channel power amplifier to support the dynamic performance of the Dolby Digital AC-3 sound signal from DVD. All channels have an equal power output of 70 watts (8 ohms, 20Hz - 20kHz, THD 0.05%) and are configured as independent monaural amplifiers. This construction enables the AVR-1700 to produce dynamic realism through its high-current capability and to recreate a nuanced surround sound effect via superior channel separation. DDSC-Digital (Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit-Digital) Since surround signals are all processed in the digital domain, the AVR-1700 is equipped with a newly-developed, sophisticated, high-performance DSP circuit with "Full Block Floating Point" calculations for the Dolby Digital AC-3 and Dolby Pro Logic decoders and Surround Simulator.

The D/A converters feature 96 kHz, 24-bit audio performance to meet the highest specification level of DVD Video. 6-channel External Decoder Input Versatile Speaker Terminals Binding Post Speaker Terminals for All Channels Two Pairs of Front Speaker Terminals for Bi-Wiring Center Speaker Terminals for Bi-Wiring Functions for Easy Operation Self-illuminated GLO-KEY Remote Controller with Easy Recognition Layout The remote controller of AVR-1700 features the "Self-illuminated GLO-KEY" for frequently used functions, and it gives you ease of use even in the dark. It also comes with four powerful functions: System Call, System Remote Control, Pre-Memory, and Programming. If several A/V components are connected to the AVR-1700, this single controller can operate the entire system, even if the components are not of DENON make. Personal Memory Plus Dot Matrix Display The AVR-1700 is equipped with a dot matrix display with greater resolution to ensure that operating status and other alpha-numeric characters are easy to read.
