Audio Features
High-Quality Construction: The Denon AVR-1913 offers a
minimum signal path design and direct mechanical ground construction, with
independent power supplies for high-quality, audiophile-type sound; all in a
vibration resistant chassis.
- Minimum Signal Path Design: The simple & straight
design concept has been thoroughly implemented in the signal paths to
contribute to clean audio and video playback. Signal paths are as short as
possible to keep signal degradation in the audio and video circuitry to a
minimum.
- Direct Mechanical Ground Construction:
Vibration-resistant construction has been used to suppress the adverse
influences of vibration on sound quality. The power transformers, a source
of vibration, have been securely mounted on the high rigid bottom chassis.
Direct mounting of cast-iron feet to the radiator in near proximity to each
other serves to suppress mutual vibration with the power transformers and
other sources of vibration.
- Independent Power Supplies: The Denon AVR-1913 employs
independent stable power supplies for high-quality sound and picture
playback.
- Vibration Resistant Construction: Vibration-resistant construction
suppresses the negative influence of vibration on sound quality. Power
transformers are securely mounted on the receiver's solid bottom chassis to
minimize vibration
Equal Power Amp Design w Discrete Circuitry: The Denon AVR-1913 is equipped with a
7 channel power amplifier rated at 90-watts (into 8-ohms, at 20-20kHz, with
0.08% THD, driving 2 channels) that reproduces high-fidelity sound in surround mode
with equal quality and power for all channels, true to the original sound. The
power amplifier circuit adopts a discrete-circuit configuration that achieves
high-quality surround sound reproduction. To faithfully reproduce the
original surround sound, each of the Denon AVR-1913's five channels are equipped
with its own high-current power amp of equal power. Since these power
amps also use discrete circuits configured with parts strictly selected for
their contribution to high sound quality, rather than with low-cost integrated
circuits (ICs), the surround sound playback is of impeccably high quality.
Amplifier Assignment: The AVR-1913 supports up to 7.1
channels (Front L/R, Center, Surround L/R, Surround Back L/R, and SW) for
surround playback defined by the Blu-ray disc format. The seven amplifier
channels built into the receiver are typically used for 7.1 channel surround in
the main room, but there are various amplifier configurations to accommodate
your home theater setup:
- Normal: The AVR-1913 is designed to be used as a 7.1ch
surround sound receiver with front left/right, center-channel, surround
left/right, and surround back left/right channels along with a preamp
subwoofer output.
- Bi-Amp: You can configure the amplifier for front
bi-amp operation to achieve a higher-quality 2-channel sound by connecting
the receiver's front and surround back channels to your main front speakers
(if compatible). Receiver will be limited to 5.1ch surround.
- Front B: A second set of front speakers can be powered
by the surround back amplifier. Receiver will be limited to 5.1ch surround.
- Front Height: To enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz you can
reassign the power amp from the two surround back channels to the two front
height channels for better front effects.
- Zone2: The surround back channel amplifier can also be
assigned to power stereo speakers in Zone2. Receiver will be limited to
5.1ch surround.
24-bit/192-kHz DACs: This receiver is equipped with
AKM Semiconductor 24-bit/192-kHz (AK4358VQ) DACs on all channels to decode and playback
high-resolution recordings with less jitter and clearer sound.
32-Bit Processing DSP: The Denon AVR1913 is equipped with a
Floating Point 32-bit DSP (ADSP21487) for powerful and highly accurate surround
sound reproduction.
Multi-Channel Decoding Formats: The Denon AVR-1913 AV
receiver supports the following multi-channel (Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro
Logic) decoding formats.
- Dolby Digital:
Dolby Digital,
Dolby, Digital EX,
Dolby Digital Plus,
Dolby TrueHD
- DTS:
DTS,
DTS-ES,
DTS-HD Master Audio,
DTS-HD High Resolution,
DTS Express,
DTS 96/24,
DTS Neo: 6
- Dolby Pro Logic:
Dolby Pro Logic II,
Dolby Pro Logic IIx,
Dolby Pro Logic IIz
Note: Dolby Digital and DTS listening modes can only be
selected if your audio source is connected to the AV receiver via a digital
audio connection (HDMI, optical, or coaxial). To enjoy true 7.1ch Dolby
Digital TrueHD and DTS-HD surround sound, the receiver must be connected to
your Blu-ray player via HDMI.
Denon Original Listening Modes: Denon's Original Listening
Modes, combined with Dolby Digital/DTS/Dolby Pro Logic processing, produce more
realistic, powerful sound effects for your movie and music sound tracks based on
the type of content and your home theater setup. You can choose from the
following:
- Rock Arena: For rock and popular music sources, this
mode surrounds you with reflected sound of the kind you would hear at a live
concert.
- Jazz Club: This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live
house where the ceiling is low and you are enveloped with rich doses of
reflected sound.
- Matrix: With this mode, you can add rich reflected
sound to 2-channel stereo music sources where reflected sound is normally
not audible.
- Video Game: This mode is suited for achieving surround
sound with video games..
- Mono Movie: This mode is used when you listen to
recorded monaural sound sources such as AM radio broadcasts or news programs
from the center speaker.
- Virtual: Enjoy surround effects using only the front
speakers or set of headphones.
- Multichannel Stereo: Left and right stereo channels are
distributed to all the speakers so that stereo sound can be heard from all
directions at any listening position.
Surround Parameters: You can adjust the following surround
mode parameters:
- Dolby Pro Logic II Music Settings: While listening in
the Dolby Pro Logic II Music format, there are three further enhancements
you can adjust:
- Panorama: Broadens the front stereo image to the
surround speakers to provide a wraparound effect, especially effective
when there is limited output from the surround channels, panorama can be
turned on/off in the menu.
- Dimension: Allows you to move the sound field
forward or backward.
- Center Width: Allows you to adjust the width of the
center channel.
- Center Image: In the Neo:6 Music mode, the Center Image
feature adjusts the output of the left and right channels relative to the
center channel, allowing you to make the center channel more or less
dominant as needed. This improves the image of the center channel,
especially when the listener is off-center. Adjustment varies from 5
(nothing subtracted from the L/R channels) to 0 (L/R channel output is cut
in half).
- Denon Original Surround Mode Settings: While listening
in one of the Denon Original Surround Modes, there are three further
enhancements you can adjust:
- Room Size: This feature allows you to set the size
of your desired acoustic environment when using specific Denon Original
Surround Modes; select Small, Medium small, Medium, Medium large, or
Large.
- Effect Level: This function adjusts the effect
signal level from 1 to 15 when using specific Denon Original Surround
Modes.
- Delay Time: This feature adjusts the delay time
(0-300ms) to control the sound stage size.
- Height Gain: Adjust the volume (Low/Mid/High) of the
Front Height channels in Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
Direct Listening Modes: The Denon AVR-1913 offers two Direct
Listening Modes which bypass the receiver's tone & DSP processing for higher
sound quality performance. Direct Mode provides playback of 2ch or Multichannel
audio in its original form, without any surround or tone processing. Pure Direct
Mode goes a step further by turning off the receiver's display and analog video
circuitry to minimize the possibility of any noised being added to the audio
signal.
Audyssey Technology: The AVR-1913 features a full package of
Audyssey audio technologies for optimal sound quality. Audyssey Dynamic Volume
offers real-time volume adjustment, while Audyssey DynamicEQ improves your
system's surround effects during low volume levels. Audyssey MultEQ
automatically sets speakers to suit your room's listening environment and the
speakers' characteristics.
- Audyssey MultEQ: Audyssey MultEQ technology helps
create an optimal acoustic profile for your home theater. Using the included
setup microphone, Audyssey MultEQ measures sound levels and adjusts speaker
configuration accordingly, making setup fast and easy. This room acoustic
measuring and correction system analyzes (via the included microphone) the
audio characteristics of your speaker system and your listening environment
at up to 6 measurement points and automatically tailors the sound for top
audio fidelity. You can set the Audyssey MultEQ to one of the following
modes.
- 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 Bypass L/R: Optimizes all speakers except
front left and right.
- Audyssey Flat: Optimizes frequency response of all
speakers to flat.
- Manual: Adjusts the tonal quality for each speaker
individually using the manual equalizer settings; 63 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz,
500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16 kHz (-20dB to +6dB).
- 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. You can set the Dynamic EQ to 0, 5,
10, or 15 dB.
- Audyssey Dynamic Volume: Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves
the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs,
commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. 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 heard clearly. When the volume level changes, Dynamic EQ
also adjusts the frequency response to maintain sound quality. You can set
the Dynamic Volume to Day (low), Evening (middle), Midnight (high), or off.
CINEMA EQ (Cinema Equalizer): The Cinema EQ function gently
decreases the level of the extreme high frequencies, compensating for
overly-bright sounding motion picture soundtracks. Select this function if the
sound from the front speakers is too bright. This function only works in the
Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic (including PL II, PL IIx, PL IIz), and DTS
Neo:6 modes.
Restorer: Compressed audio formats such as MP3, WMA (Windows
Media Audio), and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal
components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The Restorer function
generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to
conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects
the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio
signals. You can choose from 4 settings:
- Mode 1 (Restorer 64): Optimized mode for compressed
sources with very weak highs.
- Mode 2 (Restorer 96): Apply suitable bass & treble
boost for all compressed sources.
- Mode 3 (Restored HQ): Optimized mode for compressed
sources with normal highs.
- Off: Does not use Restored function.
Dynamic Range Compression (DRC): Motion picture soundtracks
have tremendous dynamic range (the contrast between very soft and very loud
sounds). For listening late at night, or whenever the maximum sound level is
lower than usual, Compressing the dynamic range allows you to hear all of the
sounds in the soundtrack with reduced dynamic range. DRC works when playing
program sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS.
Night Mode: The Night Mode optimizes sound for late night listening.
This function can be set to Low, Mid, High, or Off.
Tone Settings: You can independently adjust the system's
overall Bass and Treble settings from -6 to +6 dB. You can also fade the sound
from front to rear, or vice-versa.
Volume Settings: The AVR-1913 offers the following volume
settings.
- Volume Scale: You can
choose to display an Absolute volume scale (0-98) or Relative volume scale
(-79.5 to 18dB).
- Volume Limit: You can set a maximum volume level of 0,
-10, or -20 dB to limit the receiver's total volume output.
- Turn-On Volume: You can define the volume setting that
is active when the power is turned on (0, 1-98, -79 to +18dB, or Last)
- Mute Level: You can set the amount of attenuation for the audio muting
circuit; -40dB or -20dB below current volume, or full mute (sound turned off
entirely).
Level Adjustments: The AVR-1913 provides the following
level adjustments.
- Source Level: This function adjusts the playback level of
the currently selected input source's audio input. Use this feature if there are
differences in the input volume levels between different sources. You can correct
the playback level of the audio input from -12 to +12dB.
- Dialogue Level: You can adjust the output level
(+/-12dB) to clarify the dialogue output from the center channel.
- Subwoofer Level: You can set the receiver's subwoofer output
level (+/-12dB) independent from the other speaker levels and system's main
volume.
Audio Inputs/Outputs: The Denon AV receiver offers a variety
of analog and digital audio inputs/outputs.
- Assignable Digital Inputs: The AVR-1913 features an
optical digital (Toslink) input and a coaxial digital input. Each input
can be assigned to any of the different input sources except

1/4" jack on the front panel, all the speakers are automatically muted.
Video Features
HDMI (v1.4): With six HDMI v1.4 inputs (5 rear/1 front), the
AVR-1913 allows you to route multiple high-definition devices, like game
consoles and Blu-ray players, to your TV. It also allows you to connect all of
your devices to your TV with a single HDMI cable (via its HDMI monitor output), reducing cable clutter. The
HDMI inputs are assignable to different input sources. They support HDCP copyright protection and are compatible with 3D signals, Deep Color, xvYCC technology, LipSync,
ARC, and HDMI
control.
Analog Video Inputs: The receiver features 3 composite video
inputs (2 rear/1 front) and one composite video monitor output. There is also
one component video input(60MHz). The composite video inputs can be output
through the receiver's composite video or HDMI monitor outputs. the component
video input can only be output through the receiver's HDMI monitor output.
Analog-to-HDMI Conversion w/ Video Scaling (1080p): The
AVR-1913is equipped with a flexible video switching system that converts
incoming analog video signals to HDMI, so only one video connection is required
from the receiver to the TV. The 480i/480p (SD-quality), 720p, and 1080i video
signals input as component or composite video can be converted to HDMI and
scaled as high as 1080p resolution (output resolution set in the menu).
NSV (Noise Shaped Video): 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 the most accurate signal
representation, 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 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
is the only product on the market that can achieve ultimate precision with
12-bit fidelity in both digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital domains.
3D Pass-Through: With the advent of 3D media, it is
important to own a receiver that recognizes 3D video signals. The AVR-1913 is
able to pass through 3D signals from your Blu-ray player, ensuring that the 3D
effect doesn't get lost in translation. It also recognizes signals from 3D
television broadcasts. By connecting a 3D-compliant Blu-ray disc player and 3D-compliant TV to the AVR-1913, you will
have a 3D home theater where you can enjoy high-definition sound and video on a
level you've never experienced before.
HDMI Standby Pass-Through: When enabling the HDMI Standby
Pass-Through function, regardless of whether the AV receiver is "On" or in
"Standby" both audio/video streams from an HDMI input will be output to your
television, via the receiver's HDMI monitor output. You can select between three
HDMI through function modes.
- HDMI Input: Selects the HDMI Input (1-4) for which the
HDMI Standby Pass-Through function is enabled.
- Last: The HDMI Standby-Through function is activated on
the input source selected at the time of setting the AV receiver to the
"Standby" mode.
- Off: The HDMI Standby Pass-Through function is
disabled.
ARC (Audio Return Channel): This feature allows audio to be
sent from your compatible HDTV to your receiver through the same HDMI cable
already being used to send audio and video to your HDTV. This eliminates the
need for extra cables connected to your television.
Deep Color & x.v.Color Support: The AVR-1913 also supports Deep Color and x.v.Color content, which can display a
larger color range than standard-definition schemes. The result is a more
lifelike, vibrant picture
Lipsync: If needed, the audio signal can be manually delayed
to match the video signal; adjust from 0-200ms.
Video Select Function: You can switch the video input source
on the receiver while listening to a different audio signal.

Note: Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change
functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may
need to reset the receiver and your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If
this doesn't work, you may need to wait until a newer software update is
available.
AirPlay Compatible: AirPlay lets you stream your favorite
songs directly from your iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad, or from your iTunes
library on your PC or Mac to the Denon AVR-1913, over your home network
connection. By downloading
Apple's free "Remote" application onto your iPod touch,
iPhone, or iPad you don't even need to be in the
same room as the components or your computer to play, pause, skip, and stop the
songs in your iTunes music library. You will even see the iTunes music
information, including your track titles and artist info via the Denon
receiver's on-screen menu (via HDMI).
Note: To use the AirPlay feature you need a Mac or
Windows-based PC running iTunes (10.1 or later) connected to your wireless
home network. Your iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad
must have iOS 4.2 or later installed and connected to the same wireless home
network.
iPod/iPhone Video Dock (optional): Using an optional
iPod/iPhone video dock (ASD-11R,
sold separately), you can view your iPod/iPhone's video and photos through your
connected TV. The dock features an S-video output, if you television is equipped
with an S-video input (the receiver has no S-video input/output). You will
continue to use your iPod/iPhone to navigate your stored music.
Convenience Features
On-Screen GUI (via HDMI): The AV receiver's on-screen display
(GUI) provides quick information about your system's settings (with video
overlay). You can easily make settings for your home theater system while
viewing menus on the TV screen.
Simple settings are enabled with the setting menus displayed on the TV screen.
When you control the sound volume, the volume level is displayed on the screen,
and when you switch the input source, the name of the input source is displayed. These menu displays can be output to your TV via HDMI.
If you connect the receiver to your television via only composite video, you
will need to use the A/V receiver's front-panel display for menu and source
adjustments.
Zone 2: Denon's Zone 2 function lets you select a different
audio source for listening in a second location of your home (powered output
only, there is no line-level Zone2 output). The AVR-1913 features a Main Zone
(audio/video) and Zone2 (audio only). The Main Zone offers 7.1-channel playback
of your audio/video gear in your main entertainment room. Zone 2 allows stereo
audio playback of another source connected to the receiver in another room of
your home via speaker level outputs. When using the AVR-1913 to power speakers
in a second room of your home, the main zone is restricted to 5.1-channels.
- Compatible Zone Sources: Only tuner, analog, USB, and
Network sources can be played in Zone 2. You cannot select different AM/FM radio
stations or different Network content for different zones. To hear AirPlay in
Zone 2, you must first start playing Airplay in the Main Zone. Once you have
selected AirPlay in Zone 2, you can then switch the source of the Main Zone.
- Incompatible Zone Sources: It is not possible to play the
digital audio signals from the HDMI, Coaxial, or Optical terminals in Zone 2.
Video cannot be sent to Zone 2.
Quick Select: The receiver's front-panel has four Quick
Select buttons. Each button can be programmed with a specific input source,
surround mode, and volume setting for easy recall.
Source Rename/Delete: You can change the
display name (up to 8 characters) of a selected input source. If an input isn't being used, you can delete
it from the display so you don't have to scroll past it when you change sources.
Slide Shows/Picture View: You can play back still image (JPEG) files
stored on a USB memory device or media server and pictures on Flickr website as
a slide show. The display time can also be set. You can also play back music and
a favorite picture at the same time via USB, Internet Radio, or Media Server.
Front-Panel Display Dimmer: The receiver features 4
display settings for the front-panel LCD window; Bright, Dim, Dark, and Off.
Sleep Timer: This function allows you to automatically set the power
to standby after a predetermined amount of time has passed; set the sleep
timer up to 120 minutes in 10 minute increments.
Personal Memory Plus: For each input, the receiver automatically
memorizes the settings for input mode, surround mode, HDMI output mode, audio delay, etc. When the input source is switched,
the settings last used for that source are automatically recalled. The surround
parameters, tone control settings, and playback levels for the different output
channels are memorized for each surround mode.
Auto Standby: The unit enters standby mode automatically
when no commands are sent to the unit for the set time (2, 4, or 8 hours).
Before it enters the standby mode, "Auto Standby" is displayed on the
front-panel display of this unit and the on-screen menu.
Protection Circuit: This is a function to prevent damage to components within the power supply when an
abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage, or over-heating occurs. In this
unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit enters standby mode when an
abnormality occurs.

wireless remote
control that can operate this receiver only. The remote control features
Glow keys so it can easily be used in the dark.

control; Power off, Switching of audio output devices, Switching of audio input
devices, Volume adjustment, and Playback functions.
