Audio Features
9-Channel Amplifier: The Denon AVR-4810CI features
a 9-channel discrete amplifier, supplying 140 watts RMS per channel. The nine
amplifier channels
can be used in several different configurations to accommodate your home theater
setup:
- 11.1ch Surround: standard 7.1 channel
surround sound plus Front Height (L/R) and Front Wide (L/R) channels to
accommodate Dolby Pro Logic IIz and Audyssey DSX (in this case the Front
Wide speakers must be powered by a different amplifier)
- 9.1ch Surround: standard 7.1 channel
surround plus Front Height (L/R) or Front Wide (L/R) channels, all powered
internally; you can also choose 5.1 channel surround plus Front Height (L/R)
and Front Wide (L/R) channels
- 7.1ch Surround: standard 7.1 channel
surround or 5.1 channel surround plus Front Height (L/R) or Front Wide (L/R)
channels, all powered internally; this setting leaves two amplifier channels
available to bi-amp the front speakers or power speakers in Zone2 or Zone3
- 5.1ch Surround: standard 5.1 channel
surround; this setting leaves four amplifier channels available to bi-amp
the front speakers or power speakers in Zone2 and/or Zone3
- Front Height: Dolby Pro Logic IIz requires assigning the
extra channel amplifier to power the two Front Height speakers for better
front effects
- Front Wide: Audyssey DSX processing requires assigning the
extra channel amplifier(s) to power the two Front Wide and/or the two Front
Height speakers
- Bi-Amp/Bi-Wiring: extra speaker terminals on the back
panel allow you to easily bi-wire or bi-amp the front speakers; bi-amping
requires reassignment of the extra channel amplifier
- Multi-Zone/Multi-Source Operation: the multi-zone/multi-source
function lets you independently select different audio/video sources for listening and
viewing in different locations of your home:
- Zone2: analog audio (speaker or line level output) and analog video
(component video or composite video output/no HDMI source)
- Zone3: analog audio only (speaker or line level output)
- Zone4: optical digital audio only (requires amplifier and only
plays digital sources)
Note: Zone2 and Zone3 feature both
preamp outputs and speaker terminals, so you can use this
unit or a separate amp to power speakers in another room.
When using the receiver's preamp output terminals for the
second and third rooms you need additional amplifiers to
power those speakers. The Zone4 output has only an optical
digital output and also requires another amplifier.
Minimum Signal Path Construction:
The AVR-4810CI's circuit
board layout and mechanical construction is designed to minimize audio and video
signal paths in order to maximize video and sound quality:
- Direct Mechanical Ground: The receiver's heat sink and
main transformer are located near feet to minimize mechanical vibration.
Both the heat sink and main transformer are fixed to the bottom chassis of
the receiver to reinforce Mechanical Ground. The transformer is supported by
a separate transformer and plate and the receiver's center chassis is
reinforced to add overall strength and durability to the unit.
- Separate Circuit Boards: The AVR-4810CI utilizes
separate circuit board to isolate each signal to achieve the highest quality
of audio and video. The receiver features separate digital, analog audio and
analog video circuit boards which reduces interference and lowers noise
distortion.
- Main Power Supply:
A huge capacity main transformer
provides separate power supplies for the receiver's Power Amp section,
Digital block, Analog Audio block, Analog Video block, and HD radio block
for maximum performance. The receiver also features an independent sub
transformer ensuring excellent low frequency response.
D/A Converters:
The AVR-4810CI uses highly
accurate Burr-Brown PCM-1791A Digital-to-Analog converters for each channel; 12
total. The 192kHz sampling rate and 24-bit word length capabilities of the DACs
allows you to hear the increased clarity,
detail, and dynamic range of high-resolution recordings.
AL24 Processing Plus: Denon's AL24 Processing Plus
technology dramatically improves information volume in the time axis region
using high-speed signal detection and processing technology. In addition to
expanding the original 16-bit data to 24 bits, AL24 Processing Plus
uses data interpolation along the time axis of up-converted sampling to achieve
natural interpolation without losing the original data. A digital filter is used
to further expand adaptability. The result is
reproduction of such spatial information as the delicate nuances in your music,
the positions of the performers, and the breadth, height, and depth of the
concert hall. AL24 Processing Plus is conducted for digital (PCM) input signals
of 8.1 channels or less in Pure Direct, Direct, and stereo modes.
DDSC Digital HD: The
Denon AVR-4810CI is equipped with DDSC (Dynamic
Discrete Surround Circuit) Digital HD, featuring three Analog Devices 32-bit
floating point DSP processors. All elements of the Surround Processor are
optimized to the highest standards by the use of selected high performance and
discrete components, particularly the A/D and D/A converters and the
sophisticated DSP surround decoder.
HDCD Decoding: The AVR-4810CI automatically detects and
decodes the digital bitstream from a CD that has been encoded through the
special High Definition Compatible Digital (HDCD) process. HDCD discs use 20-bit
encoding and other proprietary processing to provide improved CD
listening.
Audyssey: This receiver is equipped with an Auto Setup and
Room Equalization function, to achieve the most ideal sound field for your room.
The AVR-4810's Audyssey MultiEQ XT function is designed to optimize the sound
quality at each listening position in the room. The included DM-A409 microphone
is used to measure test tones at each listening position. This measured data is
then analyzed using a program to improve acoustic characteristics in the
listening area. For best results at least six positions should be measured,
including a main position. The main position is given more weight in the
calculations. The Audyssey EQ offers the following settings:
- MultEQ XT: the MultiEQ XT function offers the following
adjustments:
- Audyssey: optimizes the crossover point, output
level, delay time, and equalization of all speakers based on speaker
frequency response, speaker location, and room acoustics
- Audyssey Byp. L/R: optimizes all speakers except
front left and right
- Audyssey Flat: optimize frequency response of all
speakers to flat
- Manual: adjusts the tonal quality for each speaker
individually using the manual equalizer settings; adjust from -20 dB to +6
dB at 63 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16
kHz
- Off: turns equalizer off
- Dynamic EQ: audio engineers mix music and movie
soundtracks at reference levels much louder than typical home listening
levels, at lower volumes the human ear perceives sound differently; voices
change, bass dissipates, and the surround effect becomes less enveloping;
Dynamic EQ adjusts the frequency response curve based on volume to maintain
consistent bass output, octave-to-octave balance, and surround impact,
resulting in rich sound at any volume; the reference level can be set to 0
dB (film reference), 5 dB,
10 dB, or 15 dB
- Dynamic Volume: Dynamic Volume addresses the issue of
commercials that are too loud and movie soundtracks with vast differences
between soft and loud passages; the results are more intelligible dialogue,
loud passages maintain impact, and soft whispers are clearly heard; when the
volume level changes, Dynamic EQ also adjusts the frequency response to
maintain sound quality
Note: You can also setup your speaker system manually
using the receiver; adjust speaker configuration (large/small/none),
bass setting (LFE/LFE+Main), low-pass crossover
(80/90/100/110/120/150/200/250Hz), speaker distance (0-60'), channel level
(-12 to +12dB), and high-pass crossover frequency
(40/60/80/90/100/110/120/150/200/250Hz).
Surround Modes: This receiver incorporates a wide variety of
surround modes to bring you maximum enjoyment from your audio and video software.

sleep timer to 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes.
Video Features
Noise Shaped Video (NSV):
The NSV precision video feature
works in the digital domain to reduce noise in the video signal frequency band
in order to enhance video signal linearity, provide accurate signal
representations, and enhance the picture quality. Noise shaping techniques can
be combined with dynamic element matching techniques in order to reduce the
matching requirements of DAC elements by converting the analog mismatch into and
out of band noise. This approach of dynamic element matching and noise
shaping has been shown to allow the use of sigma delta modulation at video data
rates. NSV can achieve ultimate precision with 12-bit fidelity in both
digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital domains.
HDMI ver. 1.3a: This unit has five rear
panel HDMI version 1.3a inputs and two HDMI version 1.3a outputs.
The HDMI inputs are assignable to different input sources. The
HDMI outputs are parallel so the same video signal is output
through both. The HDMI jacks support HDCP copyright protection
and are compatible with 30 and 36 bit Deep Color and xvYCC
technology.
High-Bit i/p Converter and Scaler: The AVR-4810CI is equipped with a
flexible video switching system that converts video signals in an effort to
require only one video connection from receiver to TV. The Denon AV receiver is
equipped with a high-bit i/p converter and scaler (up to 1080p) featuring Anchor
Bay VRS processing which provides multi-cadence detection for SD and HD video
