Powerful 7 Channel Discrete Amplifier with ECO Mode
Featuring high current discrete power output devices on all seven
channels, the AVR-X2300W is rated at 95 watts per channel. It’s
also equipped with high-current low impedance drive capability, for
compatibility with the widest range of loudspeaker models (down
to 4 ohms). The ECO mode adjusts the power amplifier’s output ac-
cording to the volume level to reduce power consumption, with an
on-screen ECO meter providing real-time monitoring of the power-
saving.
Built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
Featuring Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless streaming connectivity,
the AVR-X2300W is equipped with an advanced dual antenna
system for robust and error-free streaming even in congested
urban environments. Connected to the Internet through your
home Wi-Fi network (or with a hard-wired connection via the
RJ-45 Ethernet LAN port), it allows you to enjoy your favorite
tracks from streaming music services such as Spotify Connect,
Pandora, and SiriusXM. You can also choose from thousands of
Internet radio stations from around the world, and enjoy music
and speech entertainment of virtually every genre. AirPlay lets
you play your favorite tracks wirelessly from your iPod touch
®
,
iPhone
®
or iPad
®
, and via network streaming you can listen
to music files stored on your home PC or Mac, or NAS devices.
The all-new Denon 2016 AVR Remote App lets you control the
AVR-X2300W with your smartphone or tablet over a network con-
nection: it’s available for both Apple
®
iOS and Android™ devices.
Dolby Atmos & DTS:X
Dolby’s revolutionary Dolby Atmos technology dispenses with the
channel-based surround sound coding used for decades, in favor
of advanced object-based coding, giving the sound designer the
ability to place sounds precisely anywhere in the three-dimensional
soundspace. Now you can enjoy this award-winning technology at
home with the AVR-X2300W, which features the ability to connect
a 5.1 surround sound speaker system and 2 additional overhead
speakers or 2 additional Dolby Atmos elevation speakers for the
ultimate home theater experience.
DTS:X: The latest immersive surround sound system, DTS:X fea-
tures similar object-based audio coding, and provides for overhead
speakers to deliver a stunning surround sound experience. (DTS:X
will be enabled via future firmware update: for more info, please
visit www.denon.com/dtsx). This includes both Dolby Surround
and DTS Neural:X upmixing: users with a ‘3D’ sound speaker set-
up are able to get an enhanced surround experience from conven-
tional Dolby- or DTS-encoded content, or even music in stereo,
using the full set of speakers installed in the listening room.
Latest HDMI 2.0a Connectivity; HDCP 2.2 Compatible;
ISF-Certified
With no fewer than eight HDMI inputs (including one conveniently
located on the front panel), along with dual HDMI outputs, the
AVR-X2300W’s advanced video section features the latest HDMI
specifications, including 4K Ultra HD 60Hz video, 4:4:4 Pure Color
sub-sampling, High Dynamic Range (HDR) and 21:9 video, 3D, and
BT.2020 pass-through support on every input. The AVR-X2300W
also features HDCP 2.2 compatibility, a requirement for 4K Ultra HD
copy-protected content, ensuring ready for the next generation of
Blu-ray disc players, set-top boxes and other 4K Ultra HD sources.
In addition, the video processor can also upscale digital SD and HD
video to 4K Ultra HD. Certified by the Imaging Science Foundation,
the AVR-X2300W features a full suite of video calibration controls
(for use by an ISF technician), along with ISF Day and ISF Night
video modes.
High Resolution Audio
Discover the incredible fidelity of high resolution audio tracks with
the AVR-X2300W’s ability to decode up to 24-bit/192-kHz lossless
files (AIFF, FLAC and WAV; ALAC/Apple Lossless to 24-bit/96kHz),
as well as DSD 2.8MHz (the audiophile format of SACD) and now
5.6MHz. Play them from memory devices via the front panel USB,
or from network sources – the AVR-X2300W will also play lossy file
types such as MP3.
Audyssey Room Correction
As the first AV receiver manufacturer to embrace Audyssey’s ad-
vanced DSP audio algorithms, Denon brings to the AVR-X2300W
the Audyssey Silver suite of DSP functions, which includes MultEQ
XT, Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume. Audyssey MultEQ XT auto-
matic room acoustic measurement and correction system uses
the supplied microphone and a test-tone sequence to match your
speakers to your room’s acoustics, giving the smoothest, most
natural tonal balance. The MultEQ XT system here provides greater
filter precision for the main and satellite speakers, with eight times
the resolution of the base MultEQ system, for up to 8 measure-
ment locations to ensure the best sound for the whole family, not
just one ideal ‘sweet spot’. Audyssey Dynamic EQ uses advanced
psychoacoustic algorithms to continually adjust tonal balance to
deliver full range sound, even at lower volume levels; Audyssey
Dynamic Volume smoothes out those annoying volume jumps – es-
pecially from loud commercials – for an easier viewing experience.
Easy To Setup, Easy To Use
The AVR-X2300W’s clear, easy to understand graphical on-screen
display guides you through the setup process to ensure the correct
configuration. The exclusive Setup Assistant and the included Quick
Start guide together provide easy setup instructions, leading the
user step by step to optimize critical settings for the best possible
sound and video quality with the rest of your system.
