Does Denon 3802 do DD-EX? (1 Viewer)

[jonathan rubin]

The product info lists DTS-ES Discrete decoding but doesn't mention DD-EX processing...does it?

Jonathan, yes, I believe it does do it. I believe Denon hadn't worked out the licensing issues yet to get the official DD-EX stamp on it so they had to leave it off - but the receiver itself will handle DD-EX Matrix and DTS-ES Matrix.

hope this helps,

is the same true for its predecessor the 3801?

I think so.
It is mentioned in the manual, although my present configuration doesn't allow me to verify for sure.

 

[Earl Simpson]

Even better. You can play back in 5.1 for those few DVD's that have strange EX encoding that makes some rcvrs go nuts. ES discrete is a better feature for now, until the manufacturers get all their ducks lined up.

Randall,

Yes, the 3801 will definitely do Dolby Digital EX/DTS ES matrix just like the 3802 does!
