Asahi Kasei Microdevices Corporation’s (AKM) premium audio DAC the AK4458 has been adopted in D&M Holdings Inc.’s (Denon) new A/V receivers AVR-X4200W released on the 7th September 2015. 

The AVR-X4200W resembles the Denon reference class A/V Receivers visually by the bigger size cabinet as well as the control buttons hidden behind the trap door. And it shares some of the finest features to lift audio performance. Having all AVR-X3200W features on board, it comes with even more power at 125 Watts on all seven channels. All audio signals are delicately handled by famous Denon D.D.S.C-HD (Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit High Definition) and unique AL24 Processing Plus, for the ultimate in sound refinement supported by the use of high quality 192kHz / 32bit D/A Converters.


The Newest Generation 32-bit D/A Converter
The newest generation D/A converter that is in the same family as the one that was selected through many listening tests in the AVR-X7200WA and is newly adopted in the AVR-X4200W. This D/A converter has significantly less distortion comparing to the existing D/A converters increasing its resolution and sensitive representation. In addition, the D/A conversion circuit of the AVR-X4200W is completely independent from the video and network circuit preventing noise coupling preserving the performance and clarity o
f the D/A converter design.
