The AVR-4306 features all the latest and greatest in technologies that Denon could throw at an AVR: seven channels of amplification at 130-watts per, THX Ultra2 certification and post processing, all the Dolby and DTS sound processing there is, Audyssey MultEQ auto setup and calibration, streaming audio from a Windows PC, XM satellite, and much more. The HDMI switching is spec 1.1 so this AVR is ready to receive hi-res multichannl PCM from HD DVD and Blu-ray, and all of this is just the beginning. We're planning a closer look at this powerful and yet reasonably priced AVR. Available now.
