State-of-the-art Denon Solutions for
Maximizing Content Quality
• Fully discrete, identical quality and power for all
7 channels (125 W x 7ch)
To faithfully reproduce the original surround sound, each of the
AVR-991’s 7 channels is equipped with the same power amp
of equal power. Since these power amps also use discrete
circuits congured with parts strictly selected for their contribu-
tion 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-com-
pliant HDTV to the AVR-991, you will have a 3D home theater
where you can enjoy high-denition sound and video on a level
you’ve never experienced before.
• Sup po r t s HDM I 1.4 a wit h 3D, Au d io Re t u r n
Channel, Deep Color, “x.v.Color” , Auto Lipsync
and HDMI control function
When you connect the AVR-991 to a TV with a single HDMI cable,
it supports Audio Return Channel (*1) 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-991’s Audio Return Channel feature helps
you keep cable connections minimized to reduce cable costs
and eliminate excessive cable clutter.
*1: The TV must also support Audio Return Channel.
•Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit, D.D.S.C.-HD
- 32-bit oating point high precision DSP processor
- AL24 Processing Plus improves ne detail (Front L/R channels)
- High precision 24-bit/192-kHz D/A converters
• Clock jitter reduction for all digital inputs
• High-definition audio support, including Dolby
TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, formats found on
many high resolution Blu-ray titles
• Audyssey DSX processing
Auddysey DSX extends 5.1-channel and 7.1-channel sound
sources to a wider and higher dimension. A sound that is
wider to the left and right is achieved by adding a sound source
(LW/RW) that is wider than the usual placement of the front (FL/
FR) speakers, and a greater sense of height in sound space is
achieved by adding a sound source (LH/RH) in the upper area
between the FL (FR) and LW (RW) channels.
• High-bit I/P Converter and Scaler up to 1080p
- Multi cadence detection for SD and HD video signals
The AVR-991 uses a high-performance video scaler to convert
SD (standard denition) video material to HD (high denition)
quality for picture quality like you've never seen before.
• Minimum Signal Path for clear audio and video signal
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, embody-
ing concepts for thorough vibration resistance
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
• 6 x HDMI in / 1 x HDMI out (Repeater)
• Direct play for iPod and iPhone via USB
You can also listen to music les from your iPod by simply con-
necting it to the AVR-991’s USB port with the USB cable that
came with the iPod. To start play, just press the iPod Play button
on the AVR-991 or its remote control unit. Digital signals from
the iPod are transmitted as is to the AVR-991 where they pass
through Denon's exclusive Compressed Audio Restorer and are
processed by advanced audio circuitry to produce a clean, high-
quality sound that is much more faithful to the original source.
• Sirius satellite radio ready
• Power Amp Assign function allows conguring the
AVR-991 for dierent system setups
Ease-of-use
• On Board GUI via HDMI output (up to 1080p)
The AVR-991 is equipped with an easy-to-view Graphical
User Interface (GUI) featuring visual menu displays. These menu
displays can also be output to the HDTV via HDMI.
• Newly developed pre-memory remote control with
Glo-Key buttons
• Remote Setup Guidance via On Screen Display
• Three Quick Select buttons
• Auto surround mode
• Sleep timer function
• Audio Delay function (max. 6 frames or 200 mSec)
• Muting level settings (Full/-40dB/-20dB)
• Audio level memory, capable of correcting dierent
signal levels for each source device
• Variable subwoofer crossover switching
Others
• PC and iPhone setup via Ethernet (web control)
• Multi-Zone Management
• Remote Access & Maintenance
• IP Control
