Denon AVR-2308 AV Receiver in silver finish Denon AVR2308 silver
 
The Denon AVR-2308 is a mid/high range AV receiver with a great specification and a multitude of useful features. Acting as the central hub of your home audio/cinema system, the AVR2308 effortlessly handles all your input/output switching, video and audio processing and amplification.

The Denon AVR 2308 is a full 7.1 system featuring a 7 x 100 watt amplifier. The AVR2308 can also be used in a 5.1 configuration with biamped front stereo output for superior sound from bi-wireable speakers. The AVR-2308 decodes Dolby Digital and DTS audio and can also handle high defintion audio such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD when output through HDMI as PCM from sources such as Blu-ray or HD-DVD players.

The Denon AVR-2308 also handles HD video. HDMI 1.3a connectivity ensures compatibility with HD generation LCDs, plasmas, Blu-ray and HD-DVD players. Component video, S-video and composite video connections also guarantee connection to older devices and thanks to the Faroudja DCDi processing, the AVR2308 will upscale all these formats up to 1080p and output them via HDMI. This means that whatever device you connect, the best possible image will be output.

All these features and a distinguished design including an aluminium front panel and volume control make the Denon AVR-2308 a classy and very capable AV receiver.
