The Denon 2016 AVR Remote app gives you full control of the AVR-920W from your mobile device.
A feast for your ears and eyes
Indulge your senses and go easy on your wallet with Denon's AVR-S920W. Packed with features you typically find at twice the price, this 7.2-channel receiver lets you get the most out of movies, music, and TV. With support for 4K and HDR, it's an ideal match for current Ultra HD TVs and Blu-ray players. You'll get more out of older video sources with 4K upscaling, and eight HDMI inputs give you plenty of room to add newer components.
Get precision surround sound to match the amazing picture quality with decoding for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X (DTS:X support available via future firmware update). Denon's Setup Assistant makes connecting your gear and optimizing settings a breeze with step-by-step instructions. The improved 2016 AVR Remote app lets you make detailed adjustments to your system's settings from your compatible phone or tablet.
A world of music at your fingertips
The AVR-S920W's Wi-Fi lets you access your own digital music library through your home network, and Bluetooth lets you stream anything you like from your phone or tablet. Tune into Internet radio stations from around the world with vTuner, or play custom content with Pandora®, Spotify® Connect, or SiriusXM. This powerful receiver even offers convenient playback of several different high-resolution audio formats through the front-panel USB port or a networked computer.
Due to changes implemented by Pandora, this receiver is temporarily unable to connect to the Pandora service. A firmware update to resolve this issue is currently available.
Music in a second room
The AVR-S920W has outputs for seven speakers, so you can enjoy a 5-channel home theater setup in your living room and reassign the rear surround channels to power a pair of speakers in a separate room. Relax to your favorite tunes on the patio while the rest of the family takes in a movie with surround sound in the living room.
A second HDMI output lets you watch the same video source in your main zone and a second room. Start a movie in your living room and finish it in your bedroom or kitchen. Or watch the same content on a TV and projector in the same room.

This reciever is working great. It makes my speakers sound better then with the older Dennon it replaced. Setup was so easy that my 11 year old son did most of it. If you can read the text on the screen and know how to push enter then you are all set.
