Denon DRA-297 AM/FM Satellite-Ready Stereo Receiver, 50W Per Channel

Denon DRA-297 Features

• With 50W of power per channel (at 8 ohms, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 0.08% THD), the DRA-297 delivers solid, reliable audio performance even when driving both A and B speaker systems at the same time
• The circuit handling low-level signals has been divided into separate blocks to ensure that influences from these signals on each other are held to an absolute minimum
• The new chassis design, known as the Signal Level Divided Construction (SLDC), preserves the purity of the signal, allowing it to be reproduced with much greater fidelity and clarity
• The DRA-297 provides a pre-out terminal that lets you connect another amp so that you can enjoy the same source in sub-room 1 that you have in the main room
• The versatile A-B speaker switching feature lets you listen to music in a second sub-room by simply selecting Speaker System B. The volume from the pre-out terminals is linked to the DRA-297's master volume control
• Stereo video sources, such as hi-fi VCR, stereo TV and DVD, can all be easily connected to the DRA-297's DVD/VDP, VCR and Video Aux terminals
• Allows you to select a video source and then select an alternate audio input source, ideal for simulcasting, as well as watching TV sports programs while listening to radio commentary
• FM stations can be searched by the tuner and automatically stored in the preset memory up to 56 stations, ideal for locales with many FM stations
• Thanks to the PLL circuit design, reception drift is a thing of the past. The DRA-297 also has a 4-pole varactor diode in its front end to guarantee accurate input of station frequencies
