For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-483 features
high quality, wideband audio amplification, providing 100 watts power
output for each of the five main channels. A large capacity power supply
includes a high current power transformer along with discrete power
output devices on all five amplifier channels for highest dynamic range
and superb reproduction clarity.
■ Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder
Enjoy 2-channel stereo recordings in stunning 5.1-channel surround playback.
The Dolby Pro Logic II decoder reproduces dynamic 5.1-channel surround
sound not only from normal 5.1-channel DVD but from 2-channel sources
such as videos and CDs, too. Dolby Pro Logic II uses matrix decoding
technology that has been dramatically improved over Pro Logic.
■ Dolby Digital and DTS Decoders
Equipped with both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel decoding, the
AVR-483 provides thrilling surround sound with the thousands of Dolby
Digital and DTS encoded DVDs, as well as the growing library of DTS
5.1 channel music recordings available on CD.
■ Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other
formats emphasizes high-frequency range due to a theater’s front speakers
being placed behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the
home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong.
The AVR-483 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency
components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to.
(For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS surround modes)
■ 5 Channel Stereo Mode
DENON's popular 5 Channel Stereo mode transforms your favorite 2-
channel sources such as CD, tape, stereo radio and stereo video
sources into exciting surround sound, free of delay effects and unnat-
ural artifacts, from all five speakers. This 5 Channel Stereo mode was
originally developed by DENON to enhance music lovers' enjoyment
of home theater ambience.
■ Virtual Surround Mode

speakers with Dolby Digital 5.1 encoded sources.
