Quality you can afford
As the brains of your home theater system, a good receiver is crucial to a great-looking, great-sounding setup. But good receivers can get quite expensive, especially when you start adding fancy features most folks won't use. Fortunately, there's a more sensible solution. Denon's AVR-1312 is a high-quality component capable of bringing you great audio and video, but at a price you'll be sure to love. This 5.1-channel receiver features four HDMI v1.4a ports with Deep Color, x.v.Color, and even 3D passthrough. The discrete channels each feature 24-bit/96kHz DACs and up to 110W of steady power for true audio enjoyment. Meanwhile, a mini-pin input lets you hook up just about any portable audio player to the receiver with a Compressed Audio Restorer to make your music sound better. Or, you can purchase a separate iPod dock for a more stable connection. On the convenience front, buttons let you quickly choose your favorite sources and sound modes. Best of all, though, check out the price.

I am impressed with the sound clarity I get with this equipment. I already had a 5.1 surround sound receiver before upgrading to this. After listening to this hooked up, I did not know what I was missing before. I am hearing sounds from music and games that I did not know there where. Great product and great price.

Very easy to set up even though Denons documentation is a little spare on details -- and very nice sound for such a reasonable price.
