Denon AVR-1609 Home Theater Receiver, HDMI + 1 Yr. Warranty
[DEN9-AVR1609]

This unit has been quality refurbished by DENON. DENON certifies it operates exactly as a BRAND NEW unit. We offer an exclusive 1 year warranty on these items, unlike others who only offer the standard 90 day warranty. The item comes in its manufacturer's packaging with all accessories and documentation Denon provides.

Denon's AVR-1609 packs the clean, high-current power you need to drive up to seven speakers with authority. You'll experience convincing surround sound realism for your favorite DVDs, TV shows, and video games. And you can add an optional SiriusConnect home tuner kit or iPod dock for even more entertainment choices.

1080p-compatible HDMI switching
If you've got an HDTV with only one HDMI input, you'll appreciate this receiver's 1080p-compatible HDMI switching. Hook up your high-def sources, such as an HD satellite receiver and a Blu-ray Disc player via HDMI, and switch between them while maintaining pristine picture quality for both. And you only need to run a single HDMI cable between the receiver and TV.

Easy and precise surround sound setup
The AVR-1609 includes sophisticated auto-calibration to take the guesswork out of setting up your surround sound system. Using the supplied microphone, it analyzes sound from up to six different listening positions in your home theater, then automatically adjusts level, equalization, and delay settings for each speaker. You'll enjoy spacious, accurate sound across a wide listening area. Dynamic Volume mode keeps your sound clear and steady, eliminating those annoying spikes in volume that accompany commercials between TV shows.

Versatility and convenience
Other key features include dual-room/dual-source audio capability that lets you enjoy home theater in your main room while a housemate enjoys stereo music in a second room. You also get plenty of connections for system-building, including HD-compatible component video switching. A front-panel audio/video input allows quick and easy connection of a camcorder or game system. Plus, the handy remote can control most brands of TVs, DVD players, and other components.
