Denon AVR-587 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Excellent product for that price; not that easy to calibrate because the instruction manual is kind of confusing. Set the second zone is also not an easy task.
I have it installed with the screen in my first floor and enjoy it a lot more than the Bose lifestyle 38 set in my game room upstairs; with the JBL speakers (in ceiling) inside and the outdoor Yamaha speakers in my backyard, I expend one third of the money I paid for the Bose system. The quality of the sound and possibilities of changes in the sound is a lot better with separate amplifier as this Denon.

Power up your home theater with the Denon AVR-587 surround sound receiver, which offers seven discrete amplifier channels (75 watts apiece, for 525 watts of total power). This includes for the surround back channel speakers to give you more clearly defined sound localization at the rear for 6.1-channel surround sources such as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1/Matrix 6.1/NEO:6 and Dolby Digital EX. The power amp circuits have been designed to reproduce exceptionally high sound quality with a wide frequency response from 10 Hz to 100 kHz. Denon's multi-room entertainment system feature lets you select different audio sources for listening in different rooms, and the AVR-587 offers two zones.
The AVR-587 is XM Radio ready (optional XM tuner required) and offers XM-HD surround sound. It's also compatible with Denon's ASD-1R control dock for iPods. It features a 56-station AM/FM/XM random preset memory tuning. For video connections, this receiver offers three sets of component video inputs that maintain a flat response up to 30 MHz to ensure sharp video quality, as well as three sets of S-Video switching and a front composite video input.
You can customize the performance of this receiver to suit your home theater and enhance operating ease. Adjustments are easy to make via a dialog format on the fluorescent display on the front panel, and these customized settings are then stored, for each source input and surround mode, in a personal memory setting. Put yourself in the middle of your favorite concert hall and music environments with Denon's DSP acoustic environment simulation modes, which include jazz club, rock arena, video game, virtual surround, and mono movie. Other features include:
Surround playback formats: DTS 96/24 decoding for DVD video; DTS-ES 6.1 and Matrix 6.1; DTS NEO:6; Dolby Digital EX; Dolby Pro Logic IIx; Neural Surround
Denon's 7 Channel Stereo mode transforms 2-channel sources (such as CD, tape, stereo radio) into surround sound, free of delay effects and unnatural artifacts, from all 7 speakers.
8-channel external inputs
Variable subwoofer crossover switching (40/60/80/90/100/110/120/150/200/250 Hz)
Night mode
Glow key remote control
Power transformer for high power, twin drive rectifier, and large aluminum extruded heatsink
Cinema Equalizer The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS, or other formats emphasizes high-frequency range due to a theater's front speakers being placed behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong. This Denon receiver's Cinema Equalizer feature corrects these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to when using Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital EX and DTS surround modes.
