Full Discrete 5-channel Equal Power Amplifier with 6-ch
External Decoder Input
The AVR-1100 A/V surround receiver provides 6-ch External Decoder Input for Dolby Digital
AC-3 or DTS multi-channel digital formats. This model includes the Equal Power feature which
brings out the full sonic potential of Dolby Digital AC-3 5.1 channel sources such as DVD. To
further support high power output and transparent sound, a full discrete 5-channel amplifier
design has been incorporated in the circuitry that takes maximum advantage of Equal Power
in 5 channels.
