FEATURES

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not

connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched

when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either

turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components

to the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER

terminals

The PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals

include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are

greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is

turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is

changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will

be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait

until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

• Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the

apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage.

Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for,

say, a vacation.

1. Multi Zone Music Entertainment System

Multi Source Function:

This unit’s Multi Source function lets you select different audio

sources for listening Different sources can thus be enjoyed in the

main room (MAIN) and the subroom (ZONE 2) simultaneously.

2. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder

Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multichannel audio

signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro

Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby

Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front

left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various

parameters can be set according to the type of source and the

contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision.

3. Dolby Digital

Using advanced digital processing algorithms, Dolby Digital

provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround

sound. Dolby Digital is the default digital audio delivery system for

North American DVD and DTV.

4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity

surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and

specially-encoded music discs.

5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6

The AVR-1803/883 is compatible with DTS-ES Extended Surround, a

new multi-channel format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc.

The AVR-1803/883 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a surround

mode allowing 6.1-channel playback of regular stereo sources.

6. Component Video Switching

In addition to composite video and “S” video switching, the AVR-

1803/883 provides 2 sets of component video (Y, P

B/CB, PR/CR)

inputs assignable, and one set of component video outputs to the

television, for superior picture quality.

7. Auto Surround Mode

This function stores the surround mode last used for an input

signal in the memory and automatically sets that surround mode

the next time that signal is input.

2

CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or

any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a

tuner or TV.

If this happens, take the following steps:

• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.

• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit’s

power cord and input/output connection cords.

• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor

antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using

outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 10 cm of space between the top,

back and sides of this unit and the wall or other components.

Speaker system connections

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that

like polarities are matched (≈ with ≈ , √ with √ ). Mismatching of

polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of

the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo

being impaired.

• When making connections, take care that none of the individual

conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent

terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear

panel.

NOTE:

NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on.

Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Connection the speaker terminals

1. Loosen by turning

counterclockwise

2. Insert the cord. 3. Tighten by turning

clockwise.

Connecting banana plugs

banana plug

Turn clockwise to tighten, then insert the

banana plug.

• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under

circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently short-circuited and a large current flows, when

the temperature surrounding the unit becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period

which results in an extreme temperature rise.

When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should

this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with

the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation

condition around the unit and switch the power back on.

If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the

unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

Protector circuit

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an

impedance lower than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 Ω/ohms) are

connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set’s power, wait for the set to cool

down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on.

Note on speaker impedance

Speaker Impedance

• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with

an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as

surround back/ZONE2 speakers.

• Be careful when using two pairs of Surround Back/ZONE2

speakers (A + B) at the same time, since use of speakers with an

impedance of 12 to 16 Ω/ohms.

• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected

for use as front, center and surround speakers.

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long

periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance

lower than the specified impedance are connected.
