When hooking up a video game console, you'll enjoy support for VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), and QFT (Quick Frame Transport). These technologies help to reduce latency, automatically trigger your TV's game mode, and will automatically alter the refresh rate in real time.

Multi-Source/Multi-Room

Supporting three-zone audio, the Denon AVR-A1H will let you pair additional sets of speakers in other rooms, allowing each room to listen to a different source than the main room.

Room Calibration

Using the included Audyssey measuring microphone, you can precisely calibrate your speaker system to your room's unique layout. With a planned future firmware update and an added fee, you can also use Dirac Live calibration.
