For ultimate-quality video performance, the AVR-5308CI includes six HDMI inputs/two HDMI outputs, all certified for HDMI1.3a with support for xvYCC and 36-bit Deep Color.  Most notably, following its success in Denon’s renowned DVD players, Denon® has added the Silicon Optix Realta HQV chipset to the  AVR-5308CI, providing enhanced video with upconversion and scaling to 1080p from all analog sources as well as processing and scaling of HDMI sources.  This is the first receiver in Denon’s line as well as one of the first in the industry to include the Realta HQV chipset.

For added flexibility and utility, the AVR-5308CI features USB ports on both the front and back of the unit (only one active at a time) for connection to other digital media players and USB hard drives.  With command and control of these drives users may enjoy access to huge libraries of digital music and photos on today’s 1- and even 2-Terabyte drives.
