$200 · DENON AVR-5600

The AVR-5600 delivers as much as 140 watts of full discrete power through each of the receivers five channels, for a grand total of 700 watts in it day as an AVR. The construction quality is outstanding (see pics). This is receiver can transform your audio listening room for 2 channel (stereo) sound for CD and Phono (Turntable). All signals are all processed in the digital domain, the AVR-5600 is equipped with two sophisticated high-performance DSP circuits which reproduce the details of the audio source using "Full Block Floating Point" calculations, a highly sophisticated method of dynamically allocating computation resources exactly as they’re needed. All channels have equal power output of 140 watts each (8 ohms, 20Hz - 20kHz, THD 0.05%) and are configured as independent monaural amplifiers. Powerful, Responsive Power Supply. AVR-5600 incorporates three independent power transformers for each power amplifier, preamplifier, and micro-processor to ensure a stable current supply for each block without mutual interference and noise. Furthermore, the transformer of the preamplifier employs separate windings for the audio amplifier and digital circuitry to prevent interference. New Remote included made for Denon 5600.
