Audyssey Platinum Built-In
The AVR-X4000 features Audyssey Platinum–Denon’s most robust level of Audyssey support with Audyssey MultEQ XT32, Audyssey Dynamic Volume, Audyssey Dynamic EQ, Audyssey DSX, Audyssey Sub EQ HT, Audyssey LFC, and Audyssey Pro.
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 generates multiple digital EQ filters with 256 times the resolution of standard MultEQ. Audyssey DSX offers the option of front wide and front height speakers which are placed to the left and right or above the main front speakers to broaden the width and/or height of the soundstage.
Audyssey Dynamic Volume senses the impending arrival of very loud sounds and automatically reduces the difference between normal and extra-loud programming. Audyssey Dynamic EQ automatically adjusts subwoofer and surround speaker levels for maximum performance at any playback volume. Additionally, Audyssey Sub EQ HT provides individual tailoring for dual subwoofer setups.
Audyssey LFC (Low Frequency Containment) provides a full range tonal balance for late-night listening that minimizes the intrusion of deep bass content into adjacent rooms or spaces. The AVR-X4000 is also Audyssey Pro Installer ready.

The Denon Setup Assistant simplifies installation and allows you to optimize the AVR-X4000 for your speaker setup.
Easy to Set Up and Easy to Use
Denon’s AVR-X4000 7.2 Channel Network Home Theater Receiver is designed for quick, easy setup. An on-screen graphical display combines large, clear text and icons that are easy to follow. The exclusive Denon Setup Assistant walks you through the process of optimizing the AVR-X4000 for your speakers and source equipment. The supplied color-coded speaker cable labels ensure correct speaker cable hookup the very first time, thanks to the matching color coding on the speaker-wire inputs.
The multi-way speaker-wire-binding post connections on the rear panel are banana-plug compatible and arranged in a horizontal configuration with a “12 o’clock” speaker wire input.
High-Power, High-Quality Seven-Channel Power Amplifier
For optimum sound quality, the AVR-X4000 features identical power amp circuitry for all channels, including the all-discrete power amplifier output stage design. Rated at 125 watts into 8 ohms for each of the seven channels, the AVR-X4000 provides high power and a wide dynamic range with low distortion for a superb surround sound listening experience.
Expanded Soundstage and Processing
In addition to high resolution Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, the AVR-X4000 also features Audyssey DSX and DTS Neo:X advanced surround processing, providing the option of additional front height or wide speakers to dramatically expand the front soundstage.

Supports three zones, meaning you can watch a movie in your living room while others enjoy different audio sources in two other rooms.
Enjoy Music or Video in Three Rooms at Once
You can configure the AVR-X4000 for a full 7.2 channel system, or you can choose to have a 5.1 channel speaker system in the main room and connect a pair of speakers located in another room. For a third room of audio, simply connect a separate power amplifier to the Zone 3 preout and add another pair of speakers. The AVR-X4000 supports digital audio inputs for the second and third zones. You can enjoy stereo sound in the second and third rooms from different sources, while others can enjoy a third program in the home theater room from any connected device. There’s also a second zone HDMI output that lets you enjoy a different video source in another room.

Seven HDMI Video Inputs with 1080p and 4K Upscaling
For total system connectivity, the AVR-X4000 is equipped with seven HDMI inputs, with six on the rear panel and one on the aluminum front panel, allowing you to quickly and easily connect your HDMI-equipped camcorder, game console, or other portable multimedia device.

The InstaPrevue function lets you monitor all of your active HDMI sources via a multiple picture-in-picture preview function, so you can switch between your favorite programs easily.
