NEW MODEL I N F O R M AT I O N AVR-3803 ■ Pure Direct mode which is equipped with AL24 processing, to enjoy purely stereo music with high sound quality The Pure Direct mode lets you use the AVR-3803 as a high sound quality stereo amplifier. A simple key operation on the main unit to select Pure Direct automatically turns off power to the video circuitry and the fluorescent lights also go off to thoroughly minimize adverse influences from these circuits on the audio circuit. During analog audio input, power to the digital circuitry is also turned off. Furthermore, Denon's AL24 processor for high sound quality has been added to the front 2 channels during digital audio input, enabling the playback of sound with remarkably high transparency. ■ Designed for high sound quality • Hefty Power Transformer for Stable Supply of Power A huge power transformer has been connected in the power section where it is combined with a rectifier diode and a large block capacitor to ensure a large, stable supply of electrical current. Accordingly, the AVR-3803 boasts high output power of 110 W for each of the 7 channels. • Newly-developed block capacitor A new, large-capacity block capacitor was developed for the AVR-3803 to ensure a rock stable supply of power. ■ Newly redesigned pre-programmed remote controller with learning feature The AVR-3803 comes with a newly-developed remote controller with the most frequently used keys layed out in the center and an easy-to-grip shape and size. It also has a small liquid crystal display that lets you quickly identify which devices you are controlling at a glance. - Preset Memory - Learning functions - System Call - All keys backlit - Supports independent Power On and Off commands ■ Support for Multi Zone Configurations • The AVR-3803 provides a Multi Zone Output function and a Select function that let you output different sources to multiple zones.Sources can be selected for output to an additional zone, in addition to the main room. Multi-room Zone 2 can have variable pre-amp output along with composite video feed. The AVR-3803's Power Amplifier Assign function lets you assign the 2 Surround Back (SB L/R) amplifier channels when the system is not configured for 7.1, to instead drive the Multi-room Zone 2 speakers, with 110 Watts per channel output power, while still providing 5 discrete amplifier channels to drive all speakers in a 5.1 configured home theater room. • +12 V Trigger Output • Serial Control Port to support an AMX, Crestron integrated control system ■ Other features that enhance operating ease • Audio Delay Function Audio Delay function corrects slight lags between sound and picture that can occur when a video signal is processed, such as in a Progressive Scan DVD player or outboard video processor. • Variable Gain Volume S/N in the useable area has been improved. Finer adjustments are also possible in 0.5 dB steps across the extended range of -80 dB to +18 dB. • Adjustable Cross-Over Switching The AVR-3803 supports subwoofer cross-over switching with a choice of 5 cross-over frequencies: 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 Hz. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to the main speaker system. • A/B switching between surround speakers ■ Frequency Synthesis Tuning • 40-Station AM/FM Random Preset Memory Tuning • Auto Preset Memory Input/Output Terminals For Every A/V System ■ Audio Inputs 11 Analog Input PHONO, CD, Tuner, DVD, VDP, TV, DBS, VCR-1, VCR-2, V.AUX, CDR/TAPE 1 8-ch Analog EXT.
