Sony STRDE400S review
Introducing the STR-DE400 home theatre receiver. With 500W (100W x 5 RMS) of total power, it sets a new standard for affordable home theatre components. Taking the confusion out of setting up your new home theatre is Sony's new DCAC* feature. Simply plug-in the included microphone and the DCAC adjusts for speaker placement, distance and delay based on information collected by the microphone and processed in the receiver. As a true AV control centre, the STR-DE400 accommodates multiple AV sources with component video switching, optical & coaxial digital inputs and a multi-function Sony AV remote as well as Sony's DCS** surround processing with 18 different modes. Don't be deceived by the price as this is truly as feature packed unit. Incorporating 32-bit DSP for DTS / Dolby Digital / Dolby Pro Logic II, Digital Cinema Sound, HDTV compatible component video switching and A/V Sync switchable audio delay for adjusting lip-sync, this receiver will deliver a high quality listening experience that will not disappoint.
