Denon Announces AVC-A11XVA - Web-enabled and Networked THX Ultra2 7.1 Surround Amplifer (27/7/2006)

The newly upgraded AVC-A11XVA owes much of its design to the humungous Ÿber-amp AVC-A1XVA, pack-ing similar incredible performance into a compact and more affordable package. Key features of the A1 are there, including the advanced MultEQ(TM) XT room correction and calibration technology that is capable of minimising the effects of room acoustics for multiple listeners. Built to THX Ultra2 standards (the only ones worth having) the sound has not been forgotten and the A11 delivers powerhouse movie and music sound, with finesse.

This is a world-class component offering unprecedented features and capabilities for a price lower than might be expected. To enhance flexibility, the AVC-A11XVA features seven discrete amplifiers and multiple-channel output, with independent audio and video processing capabilities allowing a multi-source/multi-zone home entertainment system from a single component.

New features, over and above the A11XV

- NEW - Video upscaling to 1080p - Component, composite and S-Video to HDMI
- NEW - Four into one 1080p HDMI/DVI switching
- NEW - Ethernet port for Web Radio, PC control, Home Networking and more
- NEW - Improved Electro Luminescent (EL) programmable remote control

Stunning Audio Performance and Huge Power - THX Ultra2 Rated

- 7 x 140 watts of full-bandwidth high-current power, into each of its seven channels - 7 x 195 watts into 6 ohms, 1kHz, 0.7% distortion - rated the competitor's way

The AVC-A11XVA is compatible with every popular surround format, from Dolby, DTS and Dolby Pro Logic IIx to THX Ultra2 Cinema and Music, to THX Surround EX. It also features THX 4.0/5.1/6.1 post processing, and offers additional DSP modes. Audio performance is maximized through Denon's newly improved DDSC-D (Dynamic Discrete Surround Decoder-Digital) and Advanced AL24 Processing circuitry, which utilizes advanced Texas Instruments, Analog Devices 32bit floating point processors and Burr-Brown 24bit/192kHz audio DACs

Custom Installation-Friendly Features, Plus Upgradeability

In addition to its extensive complement of digital and analog audio and video connections, the AVC-A11XVA also includes a full array of custom installation AV Amplifier features, such as assignable high current DC trigger outputs and an RS-232C port for integrated system operation with Crestron or AMX. Via built-in Ethernet port, the amplifier offers TCP/IP control capability, and can accommodate future software / firmware upgrades.

The AVC-A11XVA is also supplied with a new, improved EL programmable remote control.
