Sixteen Channel Surround Processing
The AVP45 supports 16 channels of high-resolution audio decoding and processing, making it well suited to advanced home cinema systems. Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced, and AURO-3D help place sound around and above you with greater accuracy, so films, games, and live content feel more spacious and involving. Effects such as aircraft, crowd ambience, weather, and music hall reflections can move naturally through the room. This gives larger systems the precision needed to create a convincing cinematic experience without losing clarity or detail during demanding playback sessions.
Flexible Balanced System Integration
Matrix channel assignment gives the AVP45 the flexibility to match different speaker layouts, whether you are planning extra height channels, multiple subwoofers, or a dedicated surround array. This helps you shape the system around your room instead of forcing the room around the equipment. Fully balanced outputs for all channels help protect the audio signal when feeding external power amplifiers, reducing noise over longer cable runs. That makes the AVP45 a practical foundation for larger cinema rooms, custom installations, and carefully planned separates systems with clean system integration.
Dirac Live And Streaming
Dirac Live room correction measures your speakers and room acoustics, then helps refine the sound for clearer dialogue, smoother bass, and a more consistent tonal balance. This is especially useful in larger rooms, where speaker placement, seating positions, and room surfaces can all affect performance. Optional Dirac Live Bass Control and Active Room Treatment upgrades provide deeper low-frequency optimisation for advanced setups. Built-in AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, and Qobuz Connect keep streaming simple, while Snapdragon Sound and Auracast improve supported Bluetooth playback from compatible devices.
