The Denon AVR-1611 AV Surround Receiver delivers an enormous amount of features, technology and performance in an affordable and easy-to-use component. Each of the AVR-1611's 7 channels is equipped with the same power amp of equal power, which in this case is 75W. The AVR-1611 features 3D pass-through technology and will provide high-definition sound and video on a level you've never experienced before. Simply connect a 3D-compliant Blu-ray disc player or 3D-compliant TV to get the full extent of what the receiver is capable of doing.
The AVR-1611 has a decoder that supports Dolby TrueHD, the audio format of Blu-ray disc players, and DTS-HD Master Audio, another high-grade digital audio format. To experience a dramatically expanded front soundstage, the AVR-1611 is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic IIz processor as well.
With the AVR-1611's on-screen display, you can easily make settings for your home theater system while viewing menus on the TV screen. Lastly, you can listen to music files from your iPod by simply connecting it to the AVR-1611's USB port with the USB cable that came with the iPod.

7-Channel Support
Fully discrete, identical quality and power for all 7 channels (75W x 7ch).
To faithfully reproduce the original surround sound, each of the AVR-1611's 7 channels is equipped with the same 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
Featuring 3D Pass-Through Technology
By connecting a 3D-compliant Blue-ray disc player and 3D-compliant TV to the AVR-1611, you will have a 3D home theater where you can enjoy high-definition sound and video on a level you've never experienced before
Audio Return Channel
When you connect the AVR-1611 to a TV with a single HDMI cable, it supports Audio Return Channel (ARC) that can play back the TV audio in surround sound. Until now, if you wanted to enjoy surround sound from a TV, you needed to use an optical digital cable or coaxial digital cable to bring sound from the TV to the A/V receiver. The AVR-1611's ARC feature, however, helps you keep cable connections neat and out of the way as you build your home theater. The TV must also support ARC
High-Definition Audio Support
The AVR-1611 features a precision 32 bit floating point DSP decoder, and includes high resolution audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, found on many Blu-ray discs
Dolby Pro Logic IIz
To let you enjoy an even richer spatial presentation, the AVR-1611 is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoder. By connecting Front Height speakers and using Dolby Pro Logic IIz playback, you will be able to enjoy surround sound in the vertical as well as horizontal direction
Minimum Signal Path
The simple and straight design concept has been thoroughly implemented in the signal paths to contribute to immaculately clean audio and video playback. Signal paths are as short as possible to keep signal degradation in the audio and video circuitry to an absolute minimum
Direct Mechanical Ground Construction
Vibration-resistant construction has been reviewed to thoroughly suppress the adverse influences of vibration on sound quality. The power transformers, a source of vibration, have been securely mounted on the highly 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
Connectivity & Future-Ready Expandability
The AVR-1611 provides 4 HDMI inputs that let you simultaneously connect a variety of HDMI-equipped devices such as a game console and HD video camera as well as Blu-ray disc player
Power Amp Assign Function
The AVR-1611 supports up to 7.1 channels (FL/FR/C/SL/SR/SBL/SBR/SW) for surround playback defined by the Blu-ray disc format. To enjoy surround playback with the AVR-1611's Dolby Pro Logic IIz, you can reassign the power amp from the two surround back channels (SBL/ SBR) to the two front high channels (FHL/FHR). These are just some of the ways you can arrange the AVR-1611's amps to suit various listening styles
Dock Connectivity for iPod & Network Streaming
Network music can be enjoyed via the Denon Networked Control Dock (Requires separately-sold ASD-51W or ASD-51N.)
On-Screen Display
With the AVR-1611's on-screen display, you can easily make settings for your home theater system while viewing menus on the TV screen. You can check the status of each setting, such as the volume level when you're adjusting the volume, or the name of the input source when switching input sources
