That's why it's called an "amplifier, " and not a "wattifier. " Fluctuations in current constitute the audio signal. The loudspeaker uses this current to make its cones or domes move the air in the listening space. This is how we experience sound, and the ability of a speaker to perform properly is directly related to the amount of current provided by an amplifier. [. . . ] 7 x 75W 7. 1-Channel A/V Receiver With HDMI Switching and Audio Processing Versatility at its best!The AVR 645 not only switches two HDMI 1. 1 sources, it is able to decode Dolby ® Digital, DTS® and PCM audio streams from the HDMI inputs. Add USB audio, iPod connectivity and XM Ready capability to our EzSet/EQ system and high-current amplifier, and the AVR 645 performs with ease. Equally impressive on the video side is transcoding so that all analog video inputs may be viewed via component outputs, and A/V Sync Delay, which reconnects the timing of sound and images. With two-input HDMI switching, XM Ready and USB connections, and multiple digital and analog inputs (including The Bridge input), the AVR 445 is ready to handle all your sources. Digital decoding, bass management and EzSet/EQ technology transform the most complex system into an accurate, seamless sound field. A high-current amplifier and a wealth of features complete the package to switch your home theater to the "perfect" mode. 7 x 55W 7. 1-Channel A/V Receiver With HDMI Switching and Audio/Video Processing Picture this!The AVR 347 not only includes a host of powerful features such as DCDi by Faroudja video processing, Simplay HDTM -verified HDMI 1. 1 connectivity with full audio processing and EzSet/EQ technology; it uses a colorful user interface to make system setup and operation easier than ever.

Thanks to the ABH 4000, multizone whole-house audio has never been so simple, or so affordable. ABH 4 Four-Room A-BUS Expansion Hub With the ABH 4, no room in the house need be without music, no matter which AVR is in use. For existing systems linked to A-BUS Ready products, the ABH 4 allows you to power up to four rooms, or even more with additional ABH 4 hubs. For systems without an A-BUS Ready jack, the ABH 4's onboard audio inputs add the simplicity of A-BUS technology to any multichannel or stereo receiver with a "Tape" or "Multiroom" output; you can even use it directly with a CD or DVD player or outboard tuner to bring music to any room.
