Equipped with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X as well as IMAX Enhanced and Auro 3D functions, the AVC-X6800H surrounds even larger listening rooms with breathtaking 3D sound.

With the new AVC-X6800H, you can enjoy all your entertainment with the latest technology available and watch your movies with unparalleled clarity. Enjoy movies in 8K resolution with 8K/60Hz pass-through and scaling. The high-definition and easy-to-use on-screen display raises the user experience to a whole new level.

Premium, monolithic 11-channel amplifier: Precision and 205W power per channel to produce the well-known, reliable and authentic Denon sound quality.

Clean preamplifier mode available: Your AV amplifier can also act as an AV preamplifier for external power amplifiers or active speakers. Preamplifier mode offers a cleaner signal path and greater tolerance for signal clipping by disabling the device's internal Power Amplifiers. More flexibility comes from turning off certain channels so that you can use the AV amplifier's built-in amplifiers to drive non-critical channels, but you get a cleaner signal path for e.g. main and center channels that are amplified by an external terminal.

Latest HDMI support: With 7 advanced HDMI inputs and 3 HDMI outputs with full HDCP 2.3 support, you can connect your HDMI source to up to 3 displays in different rooms.

Take advantage of the best 3D audio formats: Enjoy surround 3D sound with Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos with height virtualization, DTS:X, DTS Virtual:X, DTS:X Pro and Auro-3D processing.

Enhanced HDMI Audio Return Channel (eARC) support: Connect a compatible TV to the amplifier's eARC HDMI-supported HDMI output to intelligently play uncompressed and Object-based 3D audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X from TV applications directly to the AV amplifier.

The next generation in movie immersiveness: with 8K/60Hz pass-through and scaling, dynamic HDR and quick source switching (QMS), enjoy a crystal clear and smoother image at the highest possible quality.

The best gaming experience: with 4K/120Hz passthrough, variable refresh rate (VRR), automatic low latency mode (ALLM) and fast frame transfer (QFT), you'll enjoy your gaming experience with incredible image quality and minimal lag.

Wireless streaming from the most popular music services: Enjoy all your favorite music services such as Spotify, TuneIn Internet Radio, Amazon Music, TIDAL, Deezer and many more.

Four subwoofer outputs: Up to four subwoofer outputs smooth out low frequencies tremendously. No annoying buzzing or missing frequencies, but powerful and room-filling bass that makes your mouth smile. Adjust the subwoofer settings to your preference when more than two subwoofers are connected. Select "Standard" if you want evenly distributed bass reproduction. Select "Directional" for more directional bass reproduction, seamlessly integrated into the speaker channel closest to each subwoofer.

Audyssey's premium class room repair

Optimize your sound experience with the Audyssey MultEQ XT32 feature, which adapts the sound reproduction to your individual listening environment. With the included microphone, the MultEQ XT32 measures and analyzes the output of each speaker (including subwoofers) in up to eight measurement locations and produces precise digital filters that optimize the frequency balance and time domain reproduction of each channel. Audyssey Dynamic Volume evens out annoying volume jumps (like TV commercials), letting you listen at lower levels and still enjoy clear dialogue, music and effects. Audyssey Dynamic EQ provides full clarity at all listening levels, and Audyssey Low Frequency Containment uses advanced psychoacoustic algorithms to deliver a rich frequency balance, including a sense of deep bass, without disturbing your neighbors or other family members. Audyssey Sub EQ HT offers individual DSP customization of each subwoofer in two-subwoofer systems to keep bass accurate and reach as low as possible. In addition, the separately purchased Audyssey MultEQ Editor application (available in app stores) allows experienced users to go "under the hood" for more precise adjustment and customization of the sound reproduction. The app is available for both iOS and Android.

The AVC-X6800H allows two Audyssey settings to be saved and then changed on the fly, giving you the freedom to adjust your listening experience based on content or listening environment.

Dirac Live room correction as an option

The interaction between the sound system and the room has a big impact on the final result. Dirac Live® Room Correction uses the latest proprietary algorithms to analyze and reduce room effect and improve speaker performance. You can purchase a Dirac Live license to unlock the functionality. Visit dirac.com/denon/ for more information.

Denon's AVR Remote control application makes it easier to use

Easy control from a smart device in your back pocket. The free Denon AVR Remote for iOS and Android makes using your amplifier even easier. Adjust the volume, turn the amplifier on or off, mute the music, change the source or switch to HEOS.
