The AVR-4802 proudly bears the THX Ultra logo, certifying that it satisfies
the strict standards of Lucasfilm, Inc., governing performance, features,
sound quality, power, stability into low-impedance speaker loads (3.2 ohms
and higher), and ease of operation.
■ High-quality Pure Audio Chassis Construction
Unwanted vibration is minimized by placing the power transformer
near the center of the unit, the digital circuitry beneath the center, and
the power amp circuits on the left and right sides. By also separating
the analog circuit and video circuit sections, mutual interference
among all the circuits is eliminated. This chassis design is well suited
to the faithful reproduction of all types of sources, from the delicate
purity of 2-channel stereo music recordings to the high-quality multi-
channel soundtracks of DVD-Audio and the dynamic realism of sound
and picture signals from DVD-Video programs.
■ DDSC-Digital, for High-quality Sound Reproduction
DDSC-Digital is a circuit configuration specially designed by DENON in
which all the elements of the surround processor are optimized by the use
of selected high performance discrete elements, including separate A/D
and D/A conversion, with sophisticated dual DSP surround decoding.
1. 24-bit Analog To Digital Conversion
2. Analog Devices SHARC Dual 32-bit Floating Point DSPs
3. 24-bit, 96 kHz D/A Converters
■ DENON's latest surround technology faithfully recreates the
complex sound effects produced at the dubbing stage.
1. World's first DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 + THX Post Processing
By adding THX Post Processing to the localized sound and spatial
expression of DTS-ES Discrete 6.1, your listening room is almost completely
transformed into a full-featured cinema.
2. DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 decoding
3. DTS NEO:6 decoding
DTS NEO:6 lets you enjoy 2-channel analog, PCM, and Dolby Digital
2-channel sources in full 6.1-channel surround sound.
4. Dolby Digital decoding
5. Dolby Pro Logic II decoding
With the AVR-4802, you can use Dolby Pro Logic II to do more than
just enjoy your 2-channel analog, PCM, and Dolby Digital 2-channel
sources in surround sound ambiance. For the first time in the world,
you can also add the soundfield effects of THX Post Processing to
Dolby Pro Logic II in Movie mode
(*1) to brilliantly enhance the excitement
of 2-channel A/V sources.
6. THX Surround EX decoding
■ World's first DTS 96/24 5.1 Decoding for DVD-Video
High-quality 96-kHz, 24-bit (96/24) sound playback from ordinary
DVD-Video recordings is limited to only two channels and there are
also limitations on the picture. DVD-Video recorded in DTS 96/24,
however, allows high-quality 5.1-channel sound playback in full-quality,
full-motion video. DTS 96/24 lets you enjoy both digital output and video
output from your existing DVD player. Denon's AVR-4802 A/V receiver is
the first in the world to come equipped with a DTS 96/24 decoder.
■ AL 24 Processing
The AVR-4802 includes Denon's renowned 24-bit ALPHA processing
technology that reproduces digital signals in a waveform with the
smoothness of analog signals. This technology thoroughly suppresses
annoying quantization distortion and faithfully reproduces the delicate
musical details of low-level signals. AL 24 processing works in 2-channel
Stereo, Direct, Pure Direct modes.

World's First 7-channel A/V Surround Receiver with DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 + THX Post Processing
The AVR-4802 is the first 7-channel A/V surround receiver in the world to offer both DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and THX Post Processing
as well as high-quality DTS 96/24 5.1 decoding for DVD-Video in a single unit. In another world's first, the AVR-4802 lets you
enjoy 96/24 PCM, and Dolby Digital 2-channel sources in Dolby Pro Logic II mode or DTS NEO:6 mode. Now, you can
truly surround yourself with multi-channel sound in the mode you like best. The AVR-4802 owes much of its chassis design to its
more technologically advanced, critically acclaimed sibling, the AVR-5800. This high-end approach virtually eliminates the mutual
interference from the various circuits to ensure that you experience all the delicate nuances of pure audio sound, as well as the
clearest and most dynamic realism that is Denon home theater entertainment.
