Denon AVR-X3600H: Fully equipped 7-channel AV receiver

The Denon AVR-X3600H AV receiver supports a seven-channel configuration and contains the latest object-oriented 3D sound formats Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Based on this receiver, you can build a 7.2.2 system with two special height channels, or an expanded 9.2 for traditional surround sound formats.

The Denon AVR-X3600H is equipped with amplifiers with high-current output stages and, thanks to a powerful power supply, is capable of fully pumping up even large floor-standing acoustics. A 4-core DSP with high data processing speed, as well as 32-bit AKM DACs in each channel, are responsible for sound processing in this model. Convenience of setting up ambient sound is ensured by the presence of the Audyssey MultEQ XT32 autocalibration system. Using the included microphone, the system measures the acoustic field in the listening room, adjusting it to obtain the most natural ambient sound.

The AV receiver has eight HDMI inputs and three HDMI outputs with support for 4K video transmission with all additional technologies (HDR, Dolby Vision, HGL). This model also has a function for converting a signal from analog and digital video sources to 4K resolution. One of the HDMI inputs is located on the front panel of the Denon AVR-X3600H, which simplifies the quick connection of signal sources.

The powerful digital signal processing (DSP) system is capable of handling 11.2-channel signals, which allows you to add an additional power amplifier to the system. With 180 watts per channel, this performance-tuned Denon AVR-X3600H amplifier delivers stunning sound from various 3D sound formats and supports Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X™, DTS Virtual:X®, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization technology and the new high-quality IMAX Enhanced standard. In addition, ALLM technology is supported to create the most positive impressions from video games.

The Denon AVR-X3600H supports all modern network functionality, including the ability to play files located on available devices and music from online services. The Denon AVR-X3600H receiver also has Bluetooth, AirPlay 2 and support for the proprietary HEOS multimedia technology. The device plays PCM files (24 bit/192 kHz) and DSD 2.8/5.6 MHz via the network and via the USB input for connecting portable storage devices.

A full set of analog and digital inputs (including a special input for a vinyl player) will allow you to assemble a universal system for listening to music from various sources based on the AV receiver. The Denon AVR-X3600H has a punchy and dynamic sound, as well as a very well-chosen set of functions, which, given the very reasonable price, makes it a very profitable purchase.
