A workhorse stereo receiver
Stereo receivers tend to look very similar from the front, but the components on the inside and the connections on the back can make a huge difference. The Denon DRA-800H is designed for high performance, featuringa discrete high-current power amplifier that uses a symmetrical layout and a beefy transformer with oxygen-free copper windings. It’s also highly versatile: it can play music from digital and analog wired sources, stream wirelessly, and ?thanks to a bank of HDMI connections on the back panel ?even enhance TV sound.
The versatile Denon DRA-800H features multiple digital and analog connections.
