Denon AVR1713 5.1 Channel AV Receiver in Black Fully discrete identical quality & power for all 5 channels (120W x 5ch) To faithfully reproduce the original surround sound each of the AVR-1713’s 5 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. The “simple & straight” design concept has been thoroughly implemented in the signal paths to contribute to immaculately clean audio playback. Signal paths are as short as possible to keep signal degradation in the audio circuitry to an absolute minimum. Network Air Play & Denon Remote App When connected to a network the AVR-1713 can play audio files & still images such as photographs that are stored on your computer. You can also listen to internet radio & a host of other online music sources that use network technology. The AVR-1713 also supports Air Play that lets you stream your music library from an iPhone iPad iPod touch or i Tunes. The Denon Remote App available for free on i Tunes or Google Plus App store transfers your smartphone or tablet in a nice remote control supporting the key features of the AVR. But it doesn’t stop here as you can control the network audio streaming from your PC & internet radio function supported by cover art. That’s ease of use that’s fun.5 x HDMI in (1 on front panel) / 1 x HDMI out The AVR-1713 provides a generous supply of 5 HDMI inputs including 1 on the front.
