XV Colour is the latest colour standard that refers to the colour space of the picture and determines the range of colours that can be represented, not the number of colours. As an example, XV Colour determines how many shades of blue can be seen and allows for 1.8 times more colour gradient than the previous YCC colour standard.

Deep Colour compatibility technology processes the primary colours such as red, green and blue signals in 10-bit or 12-bit blocks instead of earlier 8-bit technologies. This higher bit technology eliminates a distortion effect known as banding and requires extra bandwidth to transfer the video signal to your TV or display monitor, including HDMI V1.3 connects and cable. Most of the major flat panel manufacturers are now making panels that are XV Colour and Deep Colour compliant. To achieve the best from these advanced technologies it is imperative that all devices be HMDI V1.3 compliant.

Other features of the The AVR-2309 receiver includes seven channels of 100 Watts of identical power into 8 ohms from 20Hz to 20kHz and supports the latest range of high-resolution surround sound decoding, including the new HD-audio formats from DTS-HD Master Audio to Dolby True HD.

The video section features Faroudja’s DCDi video processing and up-conversion, 4 x V1.3a HDMI inputs with full 1080p scaling of all incoming analogue video, and 3 x wideband HD component video inputs offering composite/video and component to HDMI up-conversion, while HDMI signals pass through unaltered. It’s the combination of these and Denon’s high-picture quality circuitry that enhances enjoyment of existing DVDs.

 


The AVR-2309 offers a suite of Audyssey’s sound-enhancing features including MultEQ, Dynamic Volume, and Dynamic EQ. The MultEQ and auto setup revolutionary technology takes into account items that affect sound including lounges, floor coverings, curtains and adjoining rooms.

Audyssey’s MultEQ uses a microphone (supplied with all Denon’s A/V receivers) to measure your exact room acoustics pattern and make individual equalisation adjustments to each speaker so that the home theatre system is acoustically matched to your living environment. The end result is a much broader listening area so that all the family can now enjoy the ‘sweet spot’ of home theatre. This technology also creates three EQ patterns for your individual home theatre environments – movie, flat and bi-pass.

Audyssey’s Dynamic Volume, is a technology that overcomes the varying volume levels of different sources and program material when listening to the home theatre. One example is Pay TV advertising where the volume of the commercial relative to the actual program is boosted – causing the user to reach for the remote control and turn it down. This technology uses the latest digital technology to make continual adjustments based on the room’s acoustics to ‘level the volume’ of all sources and programs. As a result, the dialogue is more intelligible, loud passages maintain impact, while soft whispers are clearly heard.

Dynamic EQ, an integral part of dynamic volume also makes sure the relative balance of the original sound mix will be retained even at lower volume levels. It does this by taking the room’s acoustic data collected by the MultEQ process and adjusts the frequency response of the track sound in real time, reacting when the volume level is down and makes corrections to keep the surround sound full, even at low volume levels.

Another new feature is the company’s compressed audio restorer circuitry that restores the compressed audio signal employed in formats such as MP3, AAC and WMA to as close as possible to the original by using the latest in digital restoration technology. Not just designed for iPods, Denon’s compressed audio restorer will work on network audio and also recommended when listening to your AM/FM radio broadcasts. This is a considerable upgrade over traditional dynamic compression techniques or ‘night modes’.

Other features include; RS232 port, IR in/outs, optional RC7000/7001 remote controllers, 3 x Quick select buttons for most used features, and 12V triggers.
