Drive Immersive surrounded sound

Dolby Atmos allows you to experience multidimensional audio. For the ultimate home theatre experience, pair Dolby Atmos with a 5.2.2 surround sound speaker system and Dolby Atmos elevation speakers or dedicated overhead speakers. Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization creates virtual height effects in a 7.2, 5.2, or 2.2 speaker configuration, providing immersive audio without height channels.

Immersive surround sound is an audio experience that immerses you in the action. It creates a three-dimensional soundstage, making you feel like you're in the movie or listening to music. There are several key elements to consider when driving immersive surround sound in your home theatre. You will first require a receiver that supports immersive audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. By adding height channels to the traditional 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound setup, these formats provide a more realistic and engaging listening experience.

After that, you'll need a powerful amplifier to power the speakers. The amplifier's output power should be sufficient to drive even the most demanding speakers without distortion. You will also require speakers capable of reproducing immersive audio formats.

Another critical consideration is the number of HDMI inputs and outputs. This will allow you to connect all of your devices and ensure that they are sending and receiving video and audio signals of the highest quality.

Advance HDMI video section with earc

With 8K/60Hz pass-through, 4K/120Hz pass-through, and support for the latest HDMI specifications, the 1700H Denon provides the ultimate home theatre experience.

For even the most demanding entertainment needs, enjoy the highest quality 3D audio and video.

The advanced HDMI video section with eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel) is an increasingly popular feature in modern AV receivers. This feature enables the highest quality video and audio signals to be sent and received via the receiver's HDMI connections.

One of the primary advantages of the advanced HDMI video section with eARC is the ability to transmit high-resolution video and audio signals such as 4K and 8K video, as well as high-resolution audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. This preserves the video and audio quality of your movies and music, allowing you to enjoy them in the best possible quality.

Another advantage of the advanced HDMI video section with eARC is that it allows audio signals to be transmitted in both directions. This means you can send audio from your TV to the receiver and back without using any additional cables. This is especially useful if you want to use a TV with built-in speakers as part of your home theatre setup.

The advanced HDMI video section with eARC also makes it simple to connect to other devices. With multiple HDMI inputs and outputs, you can connect and switch between all of your devices, including your Blu-ray player, gaming console, and streaming devices.

One of the biggest advancements in the next generation of gaming is the introduction of 8K resolution. With 8K resolution, games will look more realistic and immersive than ever before. The increased resolution will provide gamers with more detailed and lifelike graphics, making the gaming experience more engaging and enjoyable.

Virtual Reality (VR) is also becoming more popular in the next generation of gaming. With VR, gamers can experience games in a completely new and immersive way. VR technology allows gamers to step into the game world and interact with it in a more realistic way.

Brilliant Color – Universal Compatibility, HDR10+ And Dynamic HDR

The AVR-X-1700H supports the HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG video formats (Hybrid Log Gamma). Dolby Vision enhances viewing experiences by enhancing brightness, contrast, and colour. Over broadcast content, HLG provides HDR technology for a crisper, cleaner image. The Denon avr-1700H also supports HDR10+, which sends dynamic meta data to the television for more realistic images, and Dynamic HDR. (Not all televisions support all technologies.)

Brilliant colour is a feature that is becoming increasingly popular in modern displays and televisions. This feature allows for more vibrant and accurate colours, making the viewing experience more immersive and enjoyable.

One of the key benefits of brilliant colour is its universal compatibility. Unlike other colour technologies that are specific to certain brands or devices, brilliant colour is compatible with a wide range of displays and televisions. This means that you can enjoy more accurate and vibrant colours on any display or television, regardless of the brand or model.

Another benefit of brilliant colour is its support for HDR10+ and dynamic HDR. HDR (High Dynamic Range) is a technology that allows for a wider range of colours and brightness levels, making the image more lifelike and realistic. HDR10+ and dynamic HDR are advanced versions of HDR that provide even more accurate and realistic colours and brightness levels.

HDR10+ allows for dynamic metadata to be included in the video stream, which allows the display to optimise the HDR image on a scene-by-scene or frame-by-frame basis resulting in a more accurate representation of the intended image. In contrast, Dynamic HDR adjusts the HDR settings on the fly to ensure that the image is always at its best.

Brilliant colour also allows for a wider colour gamut, which means that it can display a wider range of colours than traditional displays. This results in more accurate and lifelike colours, making the viewing experience more immersive and enjoyable.

DSP Power Processing

Incredible power for your music and movie needs. The Denon-AVR-X-1700H includes an advanced DSP (Digital Sound Processor) chip for tremendous power processing. The quadcore DSP is capable of processing over one billion computations per second, the AVR-X1700H supports the latest video, sound and processing needs.

DSP (Digital Signal Processing) power processing is a popular feature in modern AV receivers, processors, and other audio equipment. This feature analyses and improves audio signals using advanced algorithms, resulting in a more accurate and immersive listening experience.

DSP power processing is used to correct and improve the overall audio signal quality. DSP processing algorithms can help to eliminate distortion, reduce noise, and improve overall audio clarity. As a result, the sound is more natural and balanced, with better spatial representation of the audio.

To improve the surround sound experience, DSP power processing is also used. DSP processing can create a more realistic and immersive surround sound effect by employing advanced algorithms. Because of this feature, it is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a more realistic and engaging surround sound experience.

Another advantage of DSP power processing is that it can perform room correction and equalisation. Room correction analyses the acoustic characteristics of a room and adjusts the audio signal to account for any abnormalities in the acoustics. This produces a more balanced and natural sound, regardless of the size or shape of the room.

Equalization is another feature that DSP power processing can provide. It enables fine-tuning of the audio by adjusting the balance of the various frequency ranges, resulting in a more customised sound.
