Denon pulled out all the stops when they created their flagship AVR-5308CI. This sophisticated receiver turbocharges your high-definition home theater with a host of advanced audio and video features. For starters, it teams up 150 watts per channel of precision, high-current power with THX® Ultra2 processing. This potent combination guarantees intense, high-impact surround sound from all your entertainment sources. Plus, you get Dolby® True HD and DTS-HD™ Master Audio decoding to provide superior surround sound with compatible Blu-ray players and discs.

Outstanding picture quality from every video source
The '5308CI will accept as many as six high-definition digital video signals at resolutions up to 1080p via its HDMI inputs. This lets you hook up high-res sources such as HD DVD and Blu-ray disc players, an HDTV tuner, and a high-end DVD player like Denon's DVD-5910CI, and easily switch among them. Two HDMI outputs mean you can route your high-def video signals to more than one HDTV or projector.

Denon also equipped the '5308CI with the Silicon Optix Realta™ HQV chip — a state-of-the-art video processor usually found only in professional video equipment. It incorporates broadcast-quality video deinterlacing and 1080p scaling for improved detail and smoother playback from all of your video gear, whether connected via HDMI or analog inputs.

Wi-Fi® connectivity and HD Radio
This receiver gives you convenient wireless access to digital music files and JPEG photos stored on your PC, using your Wi-Fi or Ethernet home computer network. It also lets you tap into the world of Internet Radio via a broadband Internet connection. The built-in HD Radio tuner lets you listen to the free, over-the-air digital programming that many AM and FM stations now broadcast. Plus, you get front- and rear-panel USB ports to plug in a compatible MP3 player, hard disk drive, or USB flash drive loaded with your favorite tunes.

Precision auto setup tailors sound to your room
Denon also included Audyssey MultEQ® XT, a sophisticated auto-calibration system that helps you get the most accurate home theater sound possible. The '5308CI uses the supplied microphone to analyze sound from up to eight different listening positions, then automatically adjusts level, equalization, and delay settings for each of your speakers. You get precise response across a wide listening area instead of just a single "sweet spot," so everyone in the room can enjoy balanced home theater sound.

Multi-room flexibility
This receiver's multi-source, multi-room output gives you flexible entertainment options throughout your home. You can enjoy a surround sound movie in your main room while a housemate watches a different video source in a second room, and another housemate listens to stereo music in a third. You can even route digital audio signals to a fourth room for playback with an additional receiver.

Top-notch construction for detailed sound
The '5308CI treats your digital music sources right with 16 high-quality Burr-Brown digital-to-analog converters, and a Pure Direct mode that lets you switch off the video circuits and display panel for greater sonic purity. This receiver's rock-solid construction includes an anti-resonant chassis and an oversized power supply with a toroidal transformer. This beefy build ensures pristine audio and video performance at all times.
