Dual channel surround back power amp for 7.1 surround
The AVR-687 is equipped with a total of 7 power amps including 2 for the Surround
Back channel speaker to give you more clearly defined sound localization at the rear
for 6.1-channel surround sources such as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1,
Dolby Digital EX, and DTS-ES NEO:6.
Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats emphasizes high-frequency range due to a theaters front speakers being placed behind the
movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the
high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-687 features a Cinema Equalizer to
correct these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to
listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital EX and DTS surround modes)
Supports the most advanced surround playback formats

Other features
Acclaimed customization feature
As with all of Denons high-grade A/V receiver, the AVR-687 lets you adjust delay
times and other parameters so that you can customize the performance of the
AVR-687 to suit your own home theater and enhance operating ease. The adjustments
are easy to make via a dialog format on the fluorescent display on the front panel.
These customized features are then stored, for each source input and surround
mode, in Personal Memory Plus so constant readjustments are not required.

Channel Stereo mode was originally developed by DENON to enhance music lovers'
enjoyment with home theater ambience.
