CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

FEATURES

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not

connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched

when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either

turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components

to the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER

terminals

The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and SPEAKER terminals

include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are

greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is

turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is

changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will

be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait

until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

• Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the

apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage.

Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for,

say, a vacation.

1. Digital Surround Sound Decoding

Featuring 32 bit high speed DSP, operating entirely in digital

domain, surround sound from digital sources such as DVD, LD,

DTV and satellite are faithfully re-created.

2. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder

Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multichannel audio

signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro

Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby

Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front

left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various

parameters can be set according to the type of source and the

contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision.

3. Dolby Digital

Using advanced digital processing algorithms, Dolby Digital

provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround

sound. Dolby Digital is the default digital audio delivery system for

North American DVD and DTV.

4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity

surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and

specially-encoded music discs.

5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6

The AVR-3802 is compatible with DTS-ES Extended Surround, a new

multi-channel format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc.

The AVR-3802 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a surround mode

allowing 6.1-channel playback of regular stereo sources.

6. Wide screen mode for a 7.1-channel sound even with

5.1-channel sources

DENON has developed a wide screen mode with a new design

which recreates the effects of the multi surround speakers in

movie theaters. The result is 7.1-channel sound taking full

advantage of surround back speakers, even with Dolby Pro Logic

or Dolby Digital/DTS 5.1-channel signals.

7. 24 bit D/A Conversion

All six channels, including the five main channels and the low

frequency effects (LFE) channel benefit from reference, for

optimum high fidelity reproduction of music and movie

soundtracks.

8. Dual Surround Speaker Mode

Provides for the first time the ability to optimize surround sound

reproduction using two different types of surround sound speakers

as well as two different surround speaker positions:

(1) Movie Surround

Motion picture soundtracks use the surround channel(s) to

provide the ambient elements of the acoustic environment they

want the audience to realize. This is best accomplished by the

use of specially-designed surround speakers that offer a wide

diffusion pattern (bipolar dispersion) or by using surround

speakers that provide broad dispersion with a minimum of on-

axis localization (dipolar dispersion). Side wall mounting (closer

to the ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the greatest

envelopment, minimizing localization of direct sound from the

speakers.

(2) Music Surround

With full range discrete surround channels, as well as three

discrete full range front channels, digital formats such as Dolby

and DTS offer thrilling surround sound music listening.

Producers of multi-channel discrete digital music recordings

almost always favor the use of direct radiating (monopolar)

surround speakers, placed in the rear corners of the room,

since that is how they configure their studios during the

mixing/creation process.

The DENON AVR-3802 provides the ability to connect two

different sets of surround speakers, and place them in the

appropriate locations in your AV theater room, so that you can

enjoy both movie soundtracks and music listening, with

optimum results and no compromise.

9. Component Video Switching

In addition to composite video and “S” video switching, the AVR-

3802 provides 2 sets of component video (Y, P

B/CB, PR/CR) inputs

for the DVD and TV/DBS inputs, and one set of component video

outputs to the television, for superior picture quality.

10.Video Select Function

Allow you to watch one source (visual) while listening to another

source (audio).

11.Future Sound Format Upgrade Capability via Eight Channel

Inputs & Outputs

For future multi-channel audio format(s), the AVR-3802 is provided

with 7.1 channel (seven main channels, plus one low frequency

effects channel) inputs, along with a full set of 7.1 channel pre-amp

outputs, controlled by the 8 channel master volume control. This

assures future upgrade possibilities for any future multi-channel

sound format.
