DRA-775RD
An Innovative Receiver That Does Just About
Everything, Including Multi Room Entertainment
The DENON DRA-775RD receiver is a truly versatile component meeting today's
increasingly complex A/V and pure audio system requirements. Not only does it deliv-
er reliable high power and ensure high-quality sound, it also includes video input and
output capabilities as well as DENON'S innovative Multi Room Music Entertainment
System and easy-to-tune RDS broadcast reception capabilities. The Multi Room Music
Entertainment System lets you set up an amp and speakers in a separate room, con-
nect them to the DRA-775RD, and enjoy program sources independently of the listen-
er in the main room. The remarkable DRA-775RD deserves a close look and a listen as
the best possible solution for your audio/video system needs.
