Chapter 3 : For Sale - Denon AVR-XW AVForums Page 1. Contents Connections Playback Settings Tips Appendix AVR-XW INTEGRATED NETWORK AV RECEIVER Owner's Manual You can print more than one page of a PDF onto a single sheet of paper. No longer do we get the massive flagship models seen in the last decade â that market is now made up with expensive processors and amplifiers, not the mega receiver of days gone by. The AVR is also a daunting affair for most new users with a back panel filled to the brim with inputs, outputs, terminals and everything else. Then there is usually the nightmare of making sure the speakers are wired correctly to the right terminals and can you get the Wi-Fi up and running without a university degree? There also seems to be a trend with AVR manufacturers to try and get as many features and gimmicks as possible on-board in a vain attempt to push the marketing further and attract new users. Even the design of the AVR is so accepted now that no effort seems to be made to vary the two big knobs either side of a display, with a flap covering even more inputs, approach. For more consumers to start using the traditional AVR again, it needs to be simplified and user friendly. It also introduces some helpful set up items like colour coded speaker and input terminals, with stickers in the box to attach to the cables, so they can be married up to make installation easy. And it also promises a simple approach to the set up menu system and ease of use. But does all this simplification of set up and use come at the expense of the sound quality? The traditional design is there to see with a large input source select dial to the left and volume to the right of the chassis. You also have the now common digital display placed in the centre of the front face with the only signs we are dealing with a budget model being the lack of a drop down flap to hide the extended inputs beneath the display. The only other feature on the front of the AVR is the power button to the left. Overall the front of the XW is clean and uncluttered, something which continues around the back. If there was one area of an AV receiver which is the most likely to terrify the casual end user it would be the back panel. Most AVRs have banks and banks of legacy inputs and outputs with speaker terminals placed in the most peculiar sequences. Thankfully with most devices using one HDMI to output video and audio means that legacy analogue signals have become a thing of the past, where they belong, the Xs back panel is probably one of the easiest to get to grips with. Around the back we have 7 HDMI inputs and two outputs. The monitor output is ARC ready. It is possible to use the Zone2 HDMI output to display a second source, on a different display, in the same or another room. There are two component inputs and 3 composite RCA plugs if you do want to use an aging gaming console or LD player at any point. Audio wise we have 5 RCA stereo analogue inputs along with 2 digital coax and 2 digital optical slots. Audio outputs include a stereo pair of RCA for zone2 and pre-outs for all 7. Unless you plan on using an outboard amplifier the 2 sub outputs are the most important connections on this part of the rear panel. Finally we have the speaker terminals and like the rest of the back panel which has been logically laid out to help users of varying degrees of knowledge in setting up an AVR, the speaker terminals take that one step further. As well as accepting a number of connection options, including banana plugs once the plastic covers have been removed, the terminals are also colour coded. Inside the box is a sheet of sticker labels for you to attach to the relevant speaker cable. It should then be an easy task to connect the correct cable to the right terminal. We are happy to report that the X had no issues at all driving all channels with these packages and our usual Teufel THX System8 speakers. For those who want to help save the planet while watching action movies depicting its destruction, there is also an Eco mode which varies the power output based on volume levels. Another feature that will appeal to some users is the full 7. As mentioned a couple of times now, ease of use for the end user has been a priority for Denon and the Quick Set Up Guide is a fantastic animated walk through which explains everything in an easy to digest manner. X which also take advantage of the height or width channel speakers. We tested this with some native 4K material and upscaled HD content and it worked as expected. The Denon also has ISFccc certification and offers some video controls, but as we normally advise, you should make advanced picture adjustments at the display. The remote control supplied with the AVR-X is a plastic affair which has a good weight and fits nicely in the hand. There is nothing fancy about the layout which is functional and has all the frequently used commands within easy reach. There are direct keys for internet Page 3
radio, Bluetooth and all sources to the top of the unit. You then have the volume and channel keys either side and below that are the direction keys. Towards the bottom there are play and direction keys, quick keys and sound mode keys. The one downside is the lack of a backlight. As well as the provided remote control you can also use the Denon Remote App on your ios or Android smart phone and there are versions for tablets including the Kindle Fire. We tested it on the iphone 6 and it worked like a charm with instant responses to commands and a backlight for our bat cave cinema room. Compared to some other devices this was like a breath of fresh air; well-done Denon. Streaming performance was solid and we also tested Bluetooth via an iphone 6 and Tidal music streaming which again in the main remained error free with very few drop outs. You can also access Spotify and a few other services through the AVR if you so desire. Mentioning our iphone you also get Airplay support with the X and if you plug your Apple device into the front panel USB slot, you can also use the direction and play keys on the supplied remote, to move around some music streaming apps on your device, such as Tidal. If you add in DLNA certification to everything else, plus the ability to introduce multi-room listening and viewing, it is hard to draw any fault at the functionality, ease of use and features included on what is a mid-range Receiver. All we need to do now is test how all this works and sounds, in the real world. In every case the Denon managed to perform surprisingly well with the 4ohm loads, even when pushed slightly over comfortable listening levels. I started by using the easy to find NAS drive with my music folders via the Denon. In my test folder I have the same tracks but recorded at different compression rates. I used a number to check how transparent the performance is from the Denon with the various speakers available. Only the higher bitrate tracks sounded decent enough to listen to on such revealing kit. It manages a very detailed and composed performance, but with a familiar Denon warmth to proceedings. Only when really pushed did the X start to struggle dynamically and things turned shrill. With the XTZ M6 attached the performance was upped even more with excellent separation and an even more convincing stereo performance. Moving from our in-house Onkyo NR flagship to the Denon was not as big a climb down the sound quality and power ladder as you would probably imagine. OK, push it to the limit and as you would expect it all starts to fall apart, but to be honest you really need to be pushing it. Besides the obvious we were pleasantly surprised with the sound quality on offer. Using a variety of our favourite test discs and sequences we put the X under a lot of strain with torture scenes. In almost all cases it performed very well indeed, with accurate placement of effects while managing to keep a cohesive sound field around the listener. Our current favourite atmosphere clip is from Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. The scene opens with the camera on the eyes of Caesar and it slowly pulls back while there is rain and thunder all around us. As the camera pulls back the focus switches from his breathing to voices of a choir making up a very faint soundtrack. The rain gets heavier and the thunder now carries more weight and bass. The Denon managed to play this scene back at -5db under Reference and holding all the points of interest and creating the scene without any issues. It was dynamic and full, never getting brittle even when the scene breaks into a chase and the human choir voices get louder and mixed with action cues. Bass handling was tight and assured with excellent cohesion between the LCR and surround speakers in all three systems we tested it with. We were never disappointed with the dynamic performance on offer, bearing in mind the price point the X is positioned at. Keep it reasonable and the X will fit the bill for many end users.
