For optimum Dolby Digital and DTS reproduction, the AVR-1506 features high quality,
wideband audio amplification, providing 75 watts power output for each of the 7 main
channels. A large capacity power supply includes a high current power transformer
along with discrete power output devices on all 7 amplifier channels for highest dynam-
ic range and superb reproduction clarity.
DENON's Basic Design for High-Quality Sound Reproduction
• Power Transformer for High Power Driven
The chassis that supports the large transformer has
been designed to absorb vibration, and the transformer is housed inside a highly rigid
frame to secure it more solidly to the chassis. In addition, a cushioning material has
been placed around the core of the transformer to minimize interference on the signal
and enable more faithful reproduction of the original sound. The AVR-1506 inherits
these low-noise design from higher-end models not to mention the use of short ring.
Twin Drive Rectifier
DENON's Twin Drive Rectifier design uses two rectifying diodes in parallel to bring out
the maximum potential of the large transformer. Since the rectifiers recharge the large
block capacitors at low impedance, they are able to
supply ample current to reproduce deep basses as well as sudden bursts of sound from
percussion or other musical instruments.
• Large Aluminum Extruded Heatsink
DENON uses large heatsink made of extruded aluminum.
They have been placed in a design that ensures mostly
uniform temperatures throughout the heatsink so that the
output transistors for all channels can be driven under uni-
form conditions. This in turn ensures that all channels
respond with equal performance to the demands of the
audio signals.
Wide-Range Play Capability for DVD-Audio and Super
Audio CD
The power amp circuits of the AVR-1506 have been meticu-
lously designed to reproduce the exceptionally high sound
quality with wide frequency response from 10 Hz to 100 kHz.
Dual Channel Surround Back Power Amp for 7.1
Surround
The AVR-1506 is equipped with a total of 7 power amps including 2 for the Surround
Back channel speaker to give you more clearly defined sound localization at the rear
for 6.1-channel surround sources such as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1,
Dolby Digital EX, and DTS-ES NEO:6.
Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats empha-
sizes high-frequency range due to a theater’s front speakers being placed behind the
movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the
high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-1506 features a Cinema Equalizer to
correct these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to
listen to.
(For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital EX and DTS surround modes)
Assignable surround back (L/R) amplifiers for Multi-zone playback
Amplifiers initially reserved for Surround back (L/R) channels can be assigned to Zone
2 speakers.
Personal Memory Plus, for Easy Operation
The AVR-1506 includes the Personal Memory Plus function that automatically
remembers the surround mode you last used for each program source, so that you
do not need to select the mode again for that program.
Acclaimed Customization Feature
As with all of DENON’s high-grade A/V receiver, the AVR-1506 lets you adjust para-
meters so that you can customize the performance of the AVR-1506 to suit your own
home theater and enhance operating ease. The adjustments are easy to make via a
dialog format on the fluorescent display on the front panel. These customized fea-
tures are then stored, for each source input and surround mode, in Personal Memory
Plus so constant readjustments are not required.
Multi-Function Preset Memory Remote Controller with Glo-keys
DENON's Latest Surround Technology Faithfully Recreates the
Surround Sound Produced at the Dubbing Stage.
