Denon AVR-4802R Brochure & Specs

THX Ultra2 Certified 7-channel A/V Surround Receiver
The AVR-4802R is a new and enhanced version of the AVR-4802, featuring THX Ultra2 certification and processing, as well as the full
suite of technologies from DTS-ES, including the latest high-quality DTS 96/24 5.1 decoding for DVD-Video. Adding to its decoding
flexibility, the AVR-4802R lets you enjoy 96/24 PCM, and Dolby Digital 2-channel sources in Dolby Pro Logic II mode or DTS NEO:6
mode. Now, you can truly surround yourself with multichannel sound in the mode you like best. The AVR-4802R owes much of its
chassis design to its more technologically advanced, critically acclaimed sibling, the AVR-5803. This high-end approach virtually
eliminates the mutual interference from the various circuits to ensure that you experience all the delicate nuances of pure audio
sound, as well as the clearest and most dynamic realism that is Denon home theater entertainment.

The AVR-4802R proudly bears the THX Ultra2 logo, certifying that it sat-
isfies the strict standards of Lucasfilm, Inc., governing performance, fea-
tures, sound quality, power, stability into low-impedance speaker loads (3.2
ohms and higher), and ease of operation.
High-quality Pure Audio Chassis Construction
■
Unwanted vibration is minimized by placing the power transformer
near the center of the unit, the digital circuitry beneath the center, and
the power amp circuits on the left and right sides. By also separating
the analog circuit and video circuit sections, mutual interference
among all the circuits is eliminated. This chassis design is well suited
to the faithful reproduction of all types of sources, from the delicate
purity of 2-channel stereo music recordings to the high-quality multi-
channel soundtracks of DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD and the dynamic
realism of sound and picture signals from DVD-Video programs.
DDSC-Digital, for High-quality Sound Reproduction
■
DDSC-Digital is a circuit configuration specially designed by DENON in
which all the elements of the surround processor are optimized by the use
of selected high performance discrete elements, including separate A/D
and D/A conversion, with sophisticated dual DSP surround decoding.

1. THX Post-processing available for all decoded formats
2. DTS NEO:6 decoding
DTS NEO:6 lets you enjoy 2-channel analog, PCM, and Dolby Digital
2-channel sources in full 6.1-channel surround sound.
3. Dolby Pro Logic II Decoding
With the AVR-4802R, you can use Dolby Pro Logic II to do more than
just enjoy your 2-channel analog, PCM, and Dolby Digital 2-channel
sources in surround sound ambiance. For the first time in the world, you
can also add the soundfield effects of THX Post Processing to Dolby
Pro Logic II in Movie mode (*1) to brilliantly enhance the excitement of
2-channel A/V sources.
4. DTS 96/24 5.1 Decoding for DVD-Video
High-quality 96-kHz, 24-bit (96/24) sound playback from ordinary DVD-
Video recordings is limited to only two channels and there are also limi-
tations on the picture. DVD-Video recorded in DTS 96/24 however,
allows high-quality 5.1-channel sound playback in full-quality, full-motion
video. DTS 96/24 lets you enjoy both digital output and video output
from your existing DVD player.
AL 24 Processing
■
The AVR-4802R includes Denon's renowned 24-bit ALPHA processing
technology that reproduces digital signals in a waveform with the
smoothness of analog signals. This technology thoroughly suppresses
annoying quantization distortion and faithfully reproduces the delicate
musical details of low-level signals. AL 24 processing works in 2-chan-
nel Stereo, Direct, Pure Direct modes.
