and superb reproduction clarity.

Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder

Enjoy 2-channel stereo recordings in stunning 5.1-channel surround

playback. The Dolby Pro Logic II decoder reproduces dynamic

5.1-channel surround sound not only from normal 5.1-channel DVD

but from 2-channel sources such as videos and CDs, too. Dolby Pro

Logic II uses matrix decoding technology that has been dramatically

improved over Pro Logic.

■

Dolby Digital and DTS Decoders

Equipped with both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel decoding, the

AVR-483 provides thrilling surround sound with the thousands of Dolby

Digital and DTS encoded DVDs, as well as the growing library of DTS

5.1 channel music recordings available on CD.

■

Cinema Equalizer

The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other

formats emphasizes high-frequency range due to a theater’s front speakers

being placed behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the

home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong.

The AVR-483 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these

high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen

to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS surround modes)

■

5 Channel Stereo Mode

DENON's popular 5 Channel Stereo mode transforms your favorite

2-channel sources such as CD, tape, stereo radio and stereo video

sources into exciting surround sound, free of delay effects and

unnatural artifacts, from all five speakers. This 5 Channel Stereo

mode was originally developed by DENON to enhance music lovers'

enjoyment of home theater ambience.

■

Virtual Surround Mode

Surround yourself with sensational 3D soundfield envelopment using

just one pair of speakers. The AVR-483's Virtual Surround mode

provides a dramatic psychoacoustic surround sound effect, using two

speakers with Dolby Digital 5.1 encoded sources.
