Denon's DRA-685 is your ticket to pristine, powerful stereo sound and true A/V flexibility. This mighty receiver delivers 100 watts x 2 channels of high-current Denon amplification to fill your room with rich, dynamic stereo sound. Denon's exclusive Signal Level Divided Construction uses independent circuit blocks for handling low-level and high-level signals. This smart design helps the DRA-685 maintain maximum signal purity and reproduce your music with enhanced clarity and precision.

The back panel offers enough inputs to hook up 3 audio components, including a turntable, and 3 A/V components. You also get a multibrand remote that gives you easy control of your TV, DVD player and VCR. Best of all, the DRA-685's dual-room/dual-source capability lets you and a housemate watch two different A/V sources at the same time! (TV, receiver, amplifier, or powered speakers required in second room). Denon even includes a basic second remote that lets you change your second-room source and volume. (Use of this remote from the 2nd room requires a remote control extender, not included.)

The ability to independently select audio and video sources in your main room adds another level of flexibility. For example, you can watch a football game on TV while listening to game commentary from a radio broadcast, or watch a news station with scrolling headlines while listening to music.

The DRA-685's integrated AM/FM tuner offers 40 presets for easy access to all your favorite stations. Two sets of main speaker outputs let you connect an additional pair of speakers in another room without the need for a second amplifier (these speakers will always play the source you've got selected for your main room). A preamp-out/main-in loop keeps you ready for system expansion.
