From the review Denon AVR-1612 Home Theater Receiver: Great value, great performance
"This is not a hard receiver to set up. The Denon set-up wizard even helps the user decide what cables to use. The '1612 has the flexibility to accommodate all kinds of gear, new or old, to help create a truly solid home theater system. The sound quality was excellent for both movies and music. Image pass-through was clean throughout tests with both HD and standard definition sources. The AVR-1612 proved itself to be an excellent performer."
— Marshall, Crutchfield Home A/V Writer
Your receiver powers your speakers and lets you connect and select your entertainment sources. But a great receiver does a lot more it ignites your emotions. From the passion of a favorite musical artist, to the crossfire of a super-charged movie soundtrack, to the intensity and immersion of a fast-paced video game, your receiver is the key to experiencing and enjoying it in full.
This is my first receiver and after using it for a few months I feel it is a solid performer that should suffice for anyone's basic 5.1 setup. Setting up the receiver was absolutely simple with audyssey. My sound system composes of a 3.1 setup and during movies I feel the dialogue is too low but my center channel could be the culprit here. My front main channels however sound fantastic. I listen to a variety of genres of music and the stereo sound production with this receiver leaves a little to be desired. The soundstage is decent and the instrument seperation is great. Vocals however don't possess that engaging sparkle to them. This could be an issue with the highs. Some songs, especially ones from low bit rate sources, do sound tinny and have a veiled quality to them. Overall, I am satisfied for the amount I purchased this receiver for however after a few months I am already suffering from upgraditis.
Pros: Solid built receiver(just be sure to provide it some good ventilation room). Setup is absolutely simple with the on-screen menu and Audyssey. The controller is staightfoward and easy to use. Surround sound production is good.
Cons: Stereo sound production leaves a little to be desired. My receiver has recently been having issues with continuous static coming out of the speakers only after a few months of use.
Does everything I want, and them some! Easy to set up and calibrate. Plenty of power and great sound options. Automatically switches HDMI inputs when components are turned on, and passes through audio to TV when receiver is shut off. Automatically mutes audio to TV when using surround speakers so no more fiddling with multiple remotes. Works well with powered sub-woofer remote on/off. Only problem I've had is receiving a message saying speaker phase is incorrect when setting up, even though I double checked my wiring. Otherwise I would have given 5 stars.
Pros: Easy set-up. Multi-function remote controls all my components. Passes HDMI when powered off. Automatically detects and switches inputs when components are turned on. Works well with powered sub-woofer remote on/off.
Cons: False speaker phase warning when calibrating.
I gave this one a 4 * rating only because I wish it had just a bit more ooomph than it does. There does not seem quite enough power to support the Sub-woofer...
Pros: Easy set up, loved the microphone speaking gauging system, worked great and easy to figure out. On screen set-up was easy......even a caveman could have figured it out!
Cons: Would have liked more lower range, bass, sub power
I was excited to receive this amp, my first 'proper' AVR (previously I used either stereo, or a Yamaha sound projector beam forming sound-bar). I turned it on and went straight to the Audessy setup and ran calibration. There was pop like a delta-Dirac impulse and then the light on the 'on' button went from green to flashing red. After that, power cycling just gave flashing red. Yes I checked the speaker outputs weren't shorted - they weren't. Reading the manual said 'contact Denon service dept immediately if the light flashes red fast'. Since I had just received this and set it up, I couldn't be bothered with that, and returned it to Crutchfield for a refund.
In summary, this thing never worked and I have never heard it do anything other than go 'pop'. Obviously Denon has poor quality control as this amp had clearly never been tested. The good thing I can say though is that Crutchfield customer service is excellent and they happily sent me an RMA and refunded my credit card. I used the refund to buy a Denon AVR1912 (on another site) that was certified Denon B-stock, refurbished and tested with a warranty. The good thing about buying manufacturer certified B-stock is that it actually has been tested and known to work, unlike their new products apparently which clearly are not tested (maybe only a few samples tested?). I am very happy with my AVR1912 bought elsewhere, I have no idea what the AVR1612 is like because it never worked and never produced a sound.
Pros: Looks nice, cheap, Crutchfield has great customer service
Cons: Didn't work, heavy and large for a paper-weight
The DENON 1612 is an excellent receiver for a 5.1 system. The remote is excellent. The sound coupled to the Speakercraft Aim2 is awesome to say the least. When I played scene 32 on the matrix when the bullets are whizzing past Neo I can feel the rounds passing across the living room with sound that is EPIC!!! This receiver is discontinued, but I trust that DENON will come out with a better predecessor.
Pros: stunning 5.1 processing. Standby mode so you may use your TV speakers without the 5.1 setup.
Cons: None thus far
Denon AVR 1612 is a solid receiver in its price range. We ordered this and unfortunately got a "lemon" first time around (1 of the HDMI ports wasn't working) but Crutchfield tech support on the phone were great and were able to identify the problem and shipped us a replacement immediately. Got a new one in less than a week, hooked it up and worked perfectly from the go.
This is a great receiver from Denon for just little over $200 dollars - lots of clear sound, enough features and HDMI slots for someone who is looking for a entry to mid level receiver. Great product from Denon and excellent service from Crutchfield. This was our first time buying from Crutchfield and I don't think we will looking anywhere else for our electronic gear going forward.
Easy to set up for surround our stereo. Very clear sound with plenty of power. I'm very pleased.
Pros: Easy set up and easy to use. Excellent tuner. Lots of power. Very clear sound.
Cons: Some difficulty getting the other components to work with the remote.
Ok but remote buttons very small to use. Confusing directions. Had to call you guys. Now I have another problem with my tv that won't turn on. Have to call again. Thinking about returning it.
Pros: Sounds good after I returned the speakers you said would sound good.
Cons: Had to return speakers you said would sound good. Hard to use confusing instructions.
The receiver looks great, performs as advertised, and sets up easily. I'd have rated the receiver 5 stars except the pass through does not work as expected. I have a blu-ray player and a cable box hooked up to the receiver via HDMI cables, and the receiver's output is then hooked up to a 55" Samsung Smart TV via the ARC HDMI connector. With the receiver on stand-by (off), the signal from the cable box is passed through to the TV when the TV is first turned on. But then 10-20 seconds later, the receiver comes on by itself, and the TV displays a message saying it's not getting any signal. I had to manually set the input source to the receiver to cable box, then turn the receiver back to stand-by. Because the process is so cumbersome, I called up Crutchfield tech support but the solution (turn on HDMI control and disable TV AnyNet) they offered have been no help. Apparently, the Samsung TV's AnyNet is sending a signal to the receiver to turn it on. I now have the cable box and blu-ray connected to the TV and will connect the TV audio output to the receiver via the digital audio cable. Hopefully, that will give me the surround sound.
Cons: pass through does not work as expected
Stopped working after 3 weeks. I had to return it. Also, like many receivers, the set up instructions were not easily followed.
i am Enjoying my BOSE with DENON 1612 with surrounding system and even more better then my previous Receiver.
The quality of this product and ease of use is great. It's hooked up with a 5.1 polk audio surround that sounds great. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because the hook up was not easy and had to call crutchfield. Of course I got great service and got it all hooked up with their help, but was annoying getting there. The crutchfield advisors are awesome!! As is this receiver!!
I've owned Denon products for over 20 years and I have yet to be disapointed.They say this is a low budget unit but I say this Jewel is on the High-End of home audio.You did a great job on this Denon. Thanks!
Pros: It's a Denon
Cons: N/A
Just finished installing this with a set of Energy Classic Take 5.1 speakers/sub, and I'm very impressed. Great sound, window rattling bass, tremendous switching among blu-ray, direcTV and Roku. East to set up (although I encountered the same problem another reviewer did re adding components via HDMI -- thought AVR was defective, but a phone call solved problem -- nice work, Denon support), and the Audyssey EQ makes the speaker setup simplicity itself. Crutchfield's price and fast shipping is, as usual, a huge bonus on top of a great receiver at a truly reasonable price.
Pros: Price, features (including 3D facility), ease of setup, Audyssey calibration, very helpful Denon support, completely sufficient number of HDMI inputs, ability to take banana plugs, fully sufficient power for smaller living room, great sound, and the always helpful Crutchfield color-coded component/speaker cable/wire labels.
Cons: Only one: no written owner's manual. This CD-ROM stuff is a major pain. Running from a PC in the den to the AVR in the living room is no way to set up a system. And I'm not about to print out a 75 page manual when I only need a few pages for a problem. Denon: change this fast!
I needed a decent reciever that wasnt too expensive but also gave me what i was looking for. And for the price,this is an excellent item, Was a little nervous after reading some people had problems with its set up, but let me tell you,,it was a doddle . Even without a woofer connected the audio is superb.. This was my first purchase from Crutchfield,and most definitely wont be the last. Shipping was very fast ,ordered it on saturday was at my door on the wednesday Next on the list will be a new woofer,,
Pros: crisp,clean audio,easy to set up,nice variety of settings and options
Cons: No matter how hard i try i just cant get it to make a cuppa tea :) ...apart form that NO cons to report
I was pretty hesitant to buy from Crutchfield as I never purchased anything from them but I thought I can take chance. Voila ! It turned out a great experience. Crutchfield has an excellent customer service, return policy and assurance for lifetime tech support. Thanks Crutchfield and team ! I received Denon 1612 receiver on time and without any problem it is running fine. I wanted to give 5 star rating but Crutchfield does not support price match policy and due to that I had to bear $50 loss :(. I wish in future, they will entertain price match. :)
Pros: This 5.1 channel receiver generates the best natural sound, excellent video quality, remote has glowing buttons which is good in dark room, good number of HDMI Inputs and Matt finish looks makes it more sexy.
Cons: Does not provide network features, I wish It would have one front HDMI port but that is not a deal breaker for me.
Big Things do come at affordable prices especially in the DENON AVR-1612. I paired this baby with a Samsung UN46EH6000FXZA. LED Television and my existing BOSE 10.1 speakers for a incredible new sound. If you are looking for a straight forward, low frills box that gives you all you need , then this should be your pick.
Pros: Simple straight forward button display and connection panel with just enough wattage to create pizazz.. The usb plugin makes for a nice way to bring up your mp3's on your TV screen.
Cons: The ipod plugin and control panel creates issues with other mp3 players, however there are work a rounds that fix this issue. It would be nice to have it more generic rather than device specific..
well, I had a xenon 1743 it quit working after 6 years.now I've purchased a 1612. It's only been a week.....but so far I think it's a great receiver...the experience with crutchfield has been extremely professional and very informative.along with the low price! I will definatly do business with them again....five stars from me! That's really saying something..I am very hard to please...
pretty good for a low budget receiver
Excellent receiver, excellent price, and awesome customer service! Thanks Crutchfield!
Pros: Very good receiver for an excellent price. Very good sound settings and plenty of HDMI ports. Easy to use, works great with IPOD and IPAD! Can not go wrong with Crutchfield and Denon. Thanks
Cons: None as of yet
This will be more of a first impression review. After only spending a day with this receiver I thought I'd write about my thoughts. For the price, it's an amazing value. My set up is the Denon AVR-1612 through a pair of Energy C-200's, running in stereo mode. I live in an apartment so I plan to build out as time goes on. The sound is great, very clean, has lots of power and very flexible options for connectivity. I did run into one issue where 3 of the four HDMI inputs did not work. I thought I had a defective unit, but a simple call to customer service fixed the issue. The issue, apparently happened because I did not power down the unit before connecting additional HDMI components. Must be a rare occurrence because HDMI is supposed to be hot-swappable. I was instructed to reset the 1612 and everything worked flawlessly after that. Thank you tech support!
Setting up the speakers was easy, although the manual can be daunting. (There are a lot of settings.) The Audyssey set up was easy. I placed the mic on my tripod and placed it in various seating positions around my room. The result was a noticeable difference and sound improvement in those areas. From there only fine tuning was needed.
Pros: Great price and value. Ample features and great sound.
Cons: Poor instruction manual. It would also be nice if the remote had a backlight, but at the price, I can't fault Denon.
Excellent product. Easy setup. Sound effects are of top quality.
Pros: Low cost, high quality
Cons: None
Excellent reciever in all respects, especially for the price. 102 page manual can be intimidating, but if you follow set up instructions to the letter and don't try to figure out WHY, the result will be good. After that, you can delve into the manual and find out why it's 102 pages long. The reason is that it has so many user controlled functions to customize the reciever to your own tastes that it NEEDS 102 pages. But be forewarned, it is at times confusing.
Pros: Everything but user manual.
Cons: User manual showing a bunch of stuff that you really don't need to know.
I purchased the Denon AVR-1612 as a replacement for a higher powered (and priced) Onkyo that died after just a few years. I am driving Polk Audio bookshelf and center channel speakers with a powered Polk subwoofer in a 5.1 config. In my experience, the Denon was extremely simple to setup and provides ample power with a clean crisp delivery. The surround channels were weak with our old receiver but are strikingly clear and strong with the Denon. My kids say that the sound finally resembles what they hear in a movie theater - a great recommendation! The remote is a little quirky with small TV and source buttons at the bottom but it is OK once you get used to it. Also, the remote was easy to configure for my TV and other devices. Overall, this is an excellent entry level receiver at a fantastic price. I highly recommend the Denon receiver for use with moderate speakers in a home theater system. BTW - I did not mind having the manual on CD because it is searchable.something that is impossible with printed material. Also, setup is easy and access to speaker calibration, etc. is simple using the remote.
I bought this amp when my trusty Sony finally died. I selected it because I know the Denon name well. It was more amp than I needed for this application but price was right so, based on name and price, I went for it. It is an excellent amp, clean-sounding, feature-rich and fairly intuitive in both installation (it's an amp, how hard can it be) and operation (and with all the features, it could have been an nightmare). I did the quick start rather than read the entire CD-based manual and found it simple and direct. I'm now enjoying the Olympic games in surround sound it it's amazing.
Pros: Crisp, clean sound, intuitive operation, feature rich.
Cons: I haven't found any.
A very nice product at a great price! I couldn't find a better price for this receiver anywhere online. I placed this in my den, which is 13' x 18' with an adjoining kitchen and large openings into the living room and dining room. Even with so much open space it has plenty of volume and fills my den nicely. I am using this with a 10", 200 watt rms sub made by Theater Solutions and an old set of Kenwood surround speakers. It sounds great even though, because of my room layout, I couldn't achieve optimal speaker placement. The rear speakers are too close to the listening position and the couch is a little off center left to right. For anyone on a budget I highly recommend this receiver.
Pros: Dependable brand, HDMI connections for many devices, programmable remote, various listening modes you can choose from.
Cons: Set up was a little difficult. Initially I couldn't get into the setup menu. If you power down the unit then press and hold the fast forward & rewind buttons while powering up it should get you into the setup menu. If that fails unplug the unit for a few minutes, then plug it in and try the previous procedure again. Once into the menu it walks you through basic set up. I connected this to an older tape deck, CD player and the rca outputs from a Roku. It could use a few more rca inputs.
Fabulous AV receiver for the price. Using it with a 5.1 speaker setup (Energy RC Micro 5.1) in a large living room along with a 40-inch LCD flat screen, Apple TV and a Roku LT. Easy set up. Largely intuitive remote (except for setting FM stations on the tuner). What's not to like?
Pros: Ample inputs/outputs, easy set-up, largely intuitive remote. In conjunction with the Energy RC Micro 5.1 speaker system fills the room with sound.
Cons: Signal strength of the FM tuner for my purposes is only so-so, but that may be largely due to the fact that the only station in which I am really interested (DC's WAMU FM, the local NPR station) probably has a rather weak signal, despite being <2 miles from my address.
I've bought another brand of receiver for years. This was my very first Denon. From unbox to use, this receiver was very easy to set up. The Audyssey auto-calibration delivered a much better initial setting that required just very minor tweaks. The back surrounds are well staged and have come to life compared to the outgoing unit. I rarely have to take the volume above -30. The capability to direct low frequency from main speakers + LFR is a nice bonus for anyone using a smaller satellite/"lifestyle" speaker configuration. For a 5.1 receiver, you honestly can't do any better than this unit! I opted for the 1612 versus the new XX13 models due to this being a perfect fit with respect to number of HDMI inputs and power output per channel. Can't say enough good things about this receiver! Get it while you can! Kudos to Crutchfield again for fast shipment and the extras they include (labels)!
Pros: Fantastic sound quality, plenty of power, low distortion, variety of inputs, solid remote control.
Cons: None that come to mind.
This receiver sounds really good, performs its functions well, has a simple and user friendly remote control, and has all the features I wanted in an AV receiver. So what's not to like? The owner's manual, that's what. First, when I saw 102 pages, my blood pressure peaked. Then I got sick of running between the computer and the TV, so I printed the entire manual (Denon owes me $.37179 for copy paper). Then the fun began. I read various instructions a dozen times, and still couldn't figure them out. I called Crutchfield 3 times, got good help , but was still frustrated because I couldn't figure out certain functions. We spent well over an hour on the phone with Comcast, who didn't even have to help us, but the gentleman we talked to was gracious enough to work with us. Anyway, after all that time, the problem was solved by an instruction on page 68!! Well, it turns out the same instruction was on page 8 of the Getting Started manual, but would someone tell me if they can understand page 8? I certainly couldn't. I do now, but this is many hours later. I might add that I have an electronics background. I sold electronics in the 70's. Of course, in computer years, that's several millennia ago, so I'm basically a cave man. As the commercial says, I want electronics that are so simple that even a cave man can figure them out. Of course, that's not going to happen. Anyway, end of rant. I really, really like the Denon, and would definitely buy one again.
Pros: Excellent performance, user friendly remote, clearly laid out rear panel, ample power, high quality sound.
Cons: The Owner's Manual. GM should write an owner's manual for the Cadillac, that is as complex as the one for the Denon. See how the Japanese like trying to figure out how to drive an American car from something that inscrutable .
Paired this receiver with the Polk Audio Blackstone TL 1600 Surround Speakers to go with my new 55" flat-screen TV. Sounds great in my living room.
Pros: Easy set-up with the on-screen wizard and Audyssey system. Worked flawlessly with my Harmony Remote, just a few clicks and a quick re-sync of the remote and up and running.
Cons: None so far.
For the price you can't beat this receiver. The auto-set up feature is super convenient for a relative audio-newbie like me. The overall set up and configuration is easy, my only bump in the road was trying to set up the remote to work with my cable box (Cox), which I eventually got working. But I set up the remote to work with our Sony Blue-Ray player without a hitch.
Bottom line - if you don't need/want the Apple Air-Play feature and can live with one less HDMI input this model is a steal @ $200 cheaper than the Denon AVR-1613
Pros: Easy set up, nice speaker auto-setup feature
Cons: only one - setting up the remote to work with your other components can be a bit tricky to set up, but it does work once you figure out the method.
It was frustrating migrating from an older analog system to digital. Once I made a de is ion to move, this has been wonderful. It appears to do all I need. The setup with other components has been easy. I still miss not being able control bass or higher sound mixture with sliders. A different level of control.
Pros: Setup ease, works flawless with my AppleTV to remotely play iTunes library.
Cons: Old school controls versus "modes"
Using a Bose AM 10 system with my new AVR and it sounds great! Had some difficulty with the setup because of the written directions which are not user friendly. The manual is 102 pages long!
Pros: Easy to connect everything. Once I understood what the remote would do I found it much better than the Sony remote I was previously using.
Cons: Wish the AVR had more sound field settings. Previous Sony AVR had 6 settings.
love it easy to use clear sound it brings sounds in that I never new were there and the price cant be beat
Pros: the mike brings every thing right to you easy set up nice remote all in all a great buy !
Cons: to tite a space for speaker wires and had to buy a sub with a amp to get the 5.0 sound
Happy with this product so far. Paired with my bookshelf B&W speakers the sound is remarkable. Can't see the need for a sub woofer, center or rear speakers. Was going to buy a Yamaha at a comparable price but the Crutchfield advisor, Jackson, pointed out there was no pass through on the Yamaha. The pass through allows passive watching/listening of the TV without the receiver outputting sound ie. sound through TV speakers. Also I have had good luck with Denon and an integrated amp still in use I bought in 1983. The receiver was simple to set up thanks to a few minutes with Crutchfields legendary tech support
Pros: Attractive, great sound, power, TV pass through, 4 HDMI outs, 1 HDMI in, Smooth remote and intuitive user interface
Cons: The box is heavy and seems big. Maybe they are all that way. The size could be a positive construction quality factor.
Bought this product from another electronics retailer. Extremely happy. Fairly easy setup for someone not so tech savvy like myself. A little problem getting the remote to control my devices but mainly because I was trying to use the buttons on the top of the remote instead of on the bottom which confused me. Thanks Crutchfield for walking me through.
Pros: Great sound. Easier to use than my previous Onkyo. Easy to wire and set up.
Cons: remote a little hard to use at first to set up other functions and does not operate everything from other units but does pretty good.
My first surround sound system. Nice to be able to use a remote volume control - infinitely variable level gives much finer level adjustment than the old analog controls. This replaced my old Denon PMA-300V amp and it seems to have a bit more headroom. Easy to set up and sounds good - what more could one ask for.
Pros: Good power, sound, easy set-up, no fan so no fan noise - time will tell if this is a good thing.
Cons: No switched power outlets, you really need to use the remote to do more than turn it on, no dedicated audio inputs - doesn't seem to be a problem though. You need a monitor plugged in to do the setup - would have liked it better if all was displayed on the receivers display.
I purchased ths unit to run a system in my basement which is mostly used by my two youngsters. I already have a Denon AVR-991 in my family room which is incredible so Denon was my only choice for the basement. The AVR-1612 is an inexpensive unit that has all of the necessary bells and whistles one needs in an AVR. I was very happy to see the Audyssey and the automatic speaker calibration features included. But most of all, the price is such that I won't have a coronary if the kids inadvertently break it.....which is a 100% chance in my house. Enjoy.
Pros: Nice must-have features in an in-expensive AVR. Good unit.
Cons: None. Exactly what I expected.
Great receiver for the money. Would definitely recommend this if you're looking to set up an entry level home entertainment system. Paired this up with a Polk center speaker and a couple of very old speakers from an old stereo. It's in a very large room (20 x 20) with lots of soft surfaces and still get really good performance. You could spend a lot more but why??? This plus the Crutchfield support, what could be better?
installed in lake house for outside speakers. Have 2 on screened in porch and four around fireplace in courtyard. Front iPod connection makes it easy for guests to bring their music. Put another downstairs for surround sound in the game room. Easy for any age to use.
Pros: Great value
Very happy with sound, really liked auto setup but had some false feedback on some speakers "out of phase". Owners manual said not to worry if you're sure the cables are attached with correct polarity, but it took me some time to find this out. Overall very pleased with sound quality. Only issue is I read that this would pass-through a cable signal on standby, so I routed my HDMI from Cable box to Receiver to TV, but the receiver MUST be on to get the signal to the TV. Sometimes I'd just like to watch to the news without turning on the receiver, but now I'd have to change the wiring flow to do that. Sent email to Crutchfield customer service last week but have yet to hear back. Packaging & delivery was awesome, even received some free peel-and-stick cable labels, which were very handy.
Pros: Set-up, sound and quality of receiver is really great for the money. Seems to be well made. FM sound reception is very good, and this is in a basement.
Cons: No signal pass-through on standby. Limited non-HDMI accomodations, but I only needed one component video in and that was provided with an interesting adapter plug. User manual recommends pretty good air clearances, so make sure your ventilation set-up is good. Did not like having to read the owners manual on my PC, but that's a cost cutting measure everyone is doing these days.
I purchased this for my daughter who lives in another city. With all of her HDMI gadgets she needed to upgrade from her Denon 2803. I set it up for her plugging in a Panasonic Blu-ray player, PS3, Apple TV 3, WDTV Live and output to a Samsung HDTV plasma. She plugs her iPod into the USB/iPod input on the front. She also uses a old Dual turntable and since the 1612 does not provide a phono input I purchased a small and inexpensive pre-amp unit and plugged into the DOCK input. Sounds pretty good. The Samsung HDTV outputs its 5.1 sound via optical cable to the TV optical input on the Denon. Everything worked flawlessly.
Pros: Four HDMI inputs, Audyssey sound quality and iPod connectivity.
Cons: Lack of phono inputs, only one each optical and coaxial inputs.
This receiver is a great value. I have the Denon AVR2312CI, but I needed something that I knew would work and sound good to give my parents. I hooked it up to some DefTech Pro Series 600, and everything sounds great! The power is adequate for compact speakers in a small to medium size room. It's easy to setup as well, especially with the Audyssey audio feature. The unit has a great on screen menu, ARC (one of the things I was specifically looking for), and assignable inputs. The only thing I wish the unit had was upconversion/conversion of component and composite inputs to HDMI (My parents have some older equipment).
Pros: Price, Features, Sound Quality, Ease of Setup
Cons: No component/composite to HDMI conversion
Fantastic especially for the price. Great for HDMI switching and limited for non-HDMI switching. If you want to switch non-HDMI video/audio make sure it has the connections you need. Great uncluttered rear panel especially if using HDMI. Audyssey EQ is fantastic.
I bought this to replace my 5.1 Yamaha receiver. Although the Yamaha sounded good and was easy to use, it didn't have any auto calibration/room correction feature. Audyssey was the main reason for my purchase and it works as well as I expected. Setup was easy, except some problem I had with setting up Audio Return Channel in the beginning. I never had any problem getting ARC to work with my old Yamaha but I didn't understand why no sound coming out of the new Denon, even after the HDMI control function was turned on. I checked the user's manual and it seemed like turning on the HDMI control function was the only thing I had to do. It still didn't work and I thought the receiver was defective. After hours of trying, I found out that you have to add an input for TV and select it as either optical or coax for the HDMI ARC to work. The list of audio connections for TV has only optical and coax, HDMI ARC is not listed but you have to select one of these two to get sound via HDMI, very odd indeed. The manual never mentions this. Denon should have done a better job. I would have given this receiver 4 stars for it overall quality but with the price I paid for, it deserves 5 for great value. This is my first purchase from Crutchfield and my experience with the transaction was perfect. Great service!
Pros: Good sound, easy setup, Audyssey auto calibration works great
Cons: ARC channel setup can be confusing and the user's manual doesn't have enough detail for this
Produces great sound, decent amount of hook ups. Annoying set up process onscreen. Denon needs to provide a paper manual.
Pros: Great sound. Great price. iPod Hook Up
Cons: No internet No component cable inputs. Inconvenient if you have a Wii. Could use another HDMI input.
I'm using the 1612 as the Zone 2 amp and it works great for that purpose. I can't comment on any of the other features because I won't be using them. I'm giving it four stars because the range on the remote isn't that great.
Cons: Remote is weak
First, Crutchfield technical and customer service are great. Really helpful, friendly and responsive. But this is about the Denon AVR-1612.
This is the 4th Denon I have purchased. My first lasted 20 years (actually, it was still working when I retired it). My other 2 are 9 and 5 years old respectively and I they work great so I'm more than willing to give Denon a fair shake. However, I am very disappointed in this particular product. This receiver was broken out of the box in 3 different ways. Most significantly, it had a power cord connection issue that was tricky to diagnose. Get it all set up, speakers connected, and test it, works. Rotate it into place, everything goes dark. Won't switch on with remote or front switch. Move it out, on again. Discovered if I wiggled the power cord, the receiver would toggle on and off. Second flaw was an HDMI input. It was loose, and unless I was very careful seating the cable, it would drop off. 3rd, and honestly I'm less confident of this problem, was the center speaker out. Seemed to work intermittently, but it could be a result of the 2nd problem. I was swapping out an older, slightly higher end Denon that did not have HDMI connections and do note that the chassis on the new one is less sturdy, it feels like the things that should be heavy (the amps) are lighter, and all around it is a cheaper feel. For the purpose I'm using it, I like the price point so Crutchfield is shipping me a new one without a hassle
Pros: Crutchfield service, expected features on receiver when I get one that works. On screen setup seemed very easy to use.
Cons: Very poorly built. At this price, maybe I should expect that. Not, however, from this brand.
Very nice sounding amp. Prior to this I had owned the more powerful 7.1 90 watt 9208 Denon which died after 5 years. I never really installed the unit where it had enough airflow. My bad!. I also never needed the 7.1 features so I decided to purchase a lower price 5.1 system and I am very happy I did. The auto setup is very nice and with only 75 watts/channel it can rock the room (20'x18') with bass and clear highs. I am using a Polk Sub and four Bose satellites with the system.
Pros: Nice sound, low price, four HDMI ports, fool proof setup
Cons: None
The Denon AVR-1612 is a spectacular receiver. I've had it for a couple weeks and I'm just thrilled with it. I consider myself a poor man's audiophile because I am very particular about the sound and gear I use (but I can't afford the high end stuff). I had been using a 10-year old Sony STR-DE835 receiver. That one was state-of-the-art, with digital inputs and total manual control, and I had it sounding incredible. Every time I moved, I would spend hours completely recalibrating the receiver, adjusting the speaker distances, volumes, and EQ to get it exactly how I liked. But, it was time to retire the Sony and grab a new work horse. My speaker setup is, front: Bose 201's; center: Bose VCS-10; surround: Bose Acoustimass double cubes through bass module. When I turned on the Denon for the first time, I plugged in the microphone and started the auto calibration really not expecting much. I figured I'd have to go in and manually tweak the bass, mids, treble and speaker volumes when it was done. To my surprise, the Denon auto setup nailed it. I had to adjust the volumes of the rears down a bit, but that's it. The EQ was right on the money. My home theater has never sounded better. I like that I can plug my iPod directly into the Denon and control it with the remote. Plus, their compressed audio restorer is surprisingly good, giving MP3 music a clear and robust sound. It also has true HDMI pass through capability as I see no difference in the video quality on or off. I am impressed.
Pros: Excellent 5.1 surround sound; Easy setup; Convenient (and accurate) microphone auto-calibration; iPod connectivity and control; Quick Select memorizes settings; Affordable
Cons: Remote control is limited; User manual is confusing
I love the price, it does everything as advertized!
I am 61 years old and have been somewhat of an audiophile for 45 years. I go back to the days of marantz and Harmon-Cardon and a few other great companies. This is my SECOND Denon. My first I just retired after 15 years of great service. The 1612 is a nice entry level machine for someone who wants a lot of features but is on a budget. I bought mine from Crutchfield with free shipping. It was very easy to set up and the CD that came with the 1612 was helpful as well. I would recommend this unit to anyone who has never sat audio equipment up for the first time. This was so easy a kid could do it. If you are not happy with the way it sounds after the small michraphone finds the speakers you can simply do them manually and make them as loud or quiet as you like.. The on screen menus are great and lead you through each step.
Pros: Great for a first timer, Very good price, and sounds are very rich.
Cons: None as of this time. I have had this unit for only a few months.
I bought my Denon 1612 AVR receiver from another internet seller. I unpacked it and prepared to install it as the final part of my new awesome Media Room--Theatre Seating...60" 3D TV...3D BluRay player...Denon 1612 AVR...Kliptch speaker system. I sat down to enjoy my first 3D BluRay (Hubble - it's great BTW), and...snow. All over the screen. I fiddled with the HDMI cables at the input and outputs, and saw a lot of changes to the screen as I just touched the HDMI cords. Bad cords, right?! I headed out and bought ultra-high-rated HDMI cables (a 6' and a 10'), to replace the two I had (got royally screwed at the local Yellow and Blue Ripoff Joint), installed them, and sat down to FINALLY enjoy "Hubble! Whaaat???? Snow all over the screen!!! I'm a pretty techy guy, so you gotta trust me that I checked my system out completely, and determined that it was the 3D signal that was getting chomped up by the Denon 1612's HDMI 3D signal pass-through system. I call Denon and got LOUSY tech support. So I promptly removed it from the system, ordered a new Yamaha AVR from Crutchfield, got it FAST (thanks Crutch!), inserted it in the blank hole that was originally supposed to hold the Denon 1612, and WOW did I have a rockin' system! I love it! What about the Denon 1612? Luckily, I had my old surround system speakers, so I took them, plus the Denon 1612, and set up a surround system downstairs in our family room (55" NON-3D TV) and have great sound there...Sorry Denon...
Pros: Great sound.
Cons: Pass-Through HDMI in 3D Mode -- couldn't handle the amount of data coming through, lost bits, snow all over the picture.
This is my first receiver that came with a speaker sound setup mic. It was really easy to set this up too! Movies and music now sound so much better. The compressed music "restorer" works great too as I've plugged my ipod into the front usb connection several times to listen to tunes. It's a bummer that a full printed manual isn't included, only a printed startup guide. The full manual is included on a cd-rom disc. That seems to be a sign of the times though. I'm still figuring out all the functions and how to get the GUI to show on the tv when I want it to as the receiver display is pretty small.
Overall, great price, sounds great, and does everything I want it to do. Crutchfield shipped this fast as well, it only took seven days to receive it via priority mail and I'm on Okinawa at an APO address!
Crutchfield is great, thats why I bought it from them. Been having trouble with Denon and HDMI connections to new TV's. First one did not work at all (rest of receiver worked, just not the HDMI connections). Second one worked fine. 2nd Denon I've had trouble with. When in doubt, buy from Crutchfield, at least this way you know they stand behind anything they sell.

Equal Power Amp Design: The Denon AVR-1612 is equipped with a 5 channel power amplifier rated at 75-watts (into 8-ohms, at 20-20kHz, with 0.08% THD, driving 2 channels) that reproduces high-fidelity sound in surround mode with equal quality and power for all channels, true to the original sound. The power amplifier circuit adopts a discrete-circuit configuration that achieves high-quality surround sound reproduction. To faithfully reproduce the original surround sound, each of the Denon AVR-1612's five channels are equipped with its own high-current power amp of equal power. Since these power amps also use discrete circuits configured with parts strictly selected for their contribution to high sound quality, rather than with low-cost integrated circuits (ICs), the surround sound playback is of impeccably high quality.
Minimum Signal Path Design: The simple & straight design concept has been thoroughly implemented in the signal paths to contribute to clean audio and video playback. Signal paths are as short as possible to keep signal degradation in the audio and video circuitry to a minimum.
Direct Mechanical Ground Construction: Vibration-resistant construction has been used to suppress the adverse influences of vibration on sound quality. The power transformers, a source of vibration, have been securely mounted on the high rigid bottom chassis. Direct mounting of cast-iron feet to the radiator in near proximity to each other serves to suppress mutual vibration with the power transformers and other sources of vibration.
Independent Power Supplies: The Denon AVR-1612 employs independent stable power supplies for high-quality sound and picture playback.
24-bit/192-kHz DACs: This receiver is equipped with AKM Semiconductor 24-bit/192-kHz (AK4358VQ) DACs to decode and playback high-resolution recordings with less jitter and clearer sound.
32-Bit Processing DSP: The Denon AVR1612 is equipped with a HammerHead SHARC 32-bit DSP (ADSP21487) for powerful and highly accurate surround sound reproduction.
High-Definition Audio Support: Fully compatible with current HD audio formats, the Denon AVR-1612 A/V Receiver provides powerful, theater-quality surround sound. The Denon AVR-1612 features support for Blu-ray high-resolution audio formats, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio for a dynamic surround-sound listening experience. These formats play back sound with exceptional fidelity, providing a more realistic listening experience.
Surround Formats: This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you maximum enjoyment from your audio and video software.

This mode is for enjoying surround effects using only the front speakers or headphones.
Note: Dolby Digital and DTS listening modes can only be selected if your audio source is connected to the AV receiver via a digital audio connection (HDMI, optical or coaxial). Even though the AV receiver will decode 7.1channel surround sound (via HDMI), it will only output 5.1ch surround, because it lacks Surround Back channel speaker outputs (unless you connect an addition Surround Back amplifier to the receiver's SB/FH Pre-Outs). Pro Logic IIz requires additional Front-Height speakers connected to a separate amplifier using the receiver's Surround Back/Front-Height preamp outputs.
Surround Parameters: You can adjust the following surround mode parameters:
Audyssey MultEQ: Audyssey MultEQ technology helps create an optimal acoustic profile for your home theater. Using the included setup microphone, Audyssey MultEQ measures sound levels and adjusts speaker configuration accordingly, making setup fast and easy. This room acoustic measuring and correction system analyzes (via the included microphone) the audio characteristics of your speaker system and your listening environment at up to 6 measurement points and automatically tailors the sound for top audio fidelity. You can set the Audyssey MultEQ to one of the following modes.
Note: You can also setup your speaker system manually using the receiver. You can select speaker configuration and size (large/small/none), as well as subwoofer (yes/no). Set subwoofer and LFE signal range playback (LFE/LFE+Main), as well as low-pass crossover frequency (80/90/100/110/120/150/200/250Hz). Set distance (0-60') from listening position to speakers. Set the volume (+/-12dB) of the test tone to be the same when it is output from each speaker. And set the high-pass crossover frequency (40/60/80/90/100/110/120/150/200/250Hz) for each speaker.
Dynamic EQ: Audio engineers mix music and movie soundtracks at reference levels much louder than typical home listening levels. At lower volumes the human ear perceives sound differently; voices change, bass dissipates, and the surround effect becomes less enveloping. Dynamic EQ adjusts the frequency response curve based on volume to maintain consistent bass output, octave-to-octave balance, and surround impact, resulting in rich sound at any volume. You can set the Dynamic EQ to 0, 5, 10, or 15 dB.
Audyssey Dynamic Volume: Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume addresses the issue of commercials that are too loud and movie soundtracks with vast differences between soft and loud passages; the results are more intelligible dialogue, loud passages maintain impact, and soft whispers are heard clearly. When the volume level changes, Dynamic EQ also adjusts the frequency response to maintain sound quality. You can set the Dynamic Volume to Day (low), Evening (middle), Midnight (high), or off.
CINEMA EQ (Cinema Equalizer): The Cinema EQ function gently decreases the level of the extreme high frequencies, compensating for overly-bright sounding motion picture soundtracks. Select this function if the sound from the front speakers is too bright. This function only works in the Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic (including PL II, PL IIx, PL IIz), and DTS Neo:6 modes.
Restorer: Compressed audio formats such as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio), and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The Restorer function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio signals. You can choose from 4 settings:
Dynamic Range Compression (DRC): Motion picture soundtracks have tremendous dynamic range (the contrast between very soft and very loud sounds). For listening late at night, or whenever the maximum sound level is lower than usual, Compressing the dynamic range allows you to hear all of the sounds in the soundtrack with reduced dynamic range. DRC works when playing program sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS.
Night Mode: The Night Mode optimizes sound for late night listening. This function can be set to Low, Mid, High, or Off.
Source Level: This function adjusts the playback level of the currently selected input source's audio input. Use this feature if there are differences in the input volume levels between different sources. You can correct the playback level of the audio input from -12 to +12dB.
Tone Settings: You can independently adjust the system's overall Bass and Treble settings from -6 to +6 dB. You can also fade the sound from front to rear or vice-versa.
Volume Setting: You can set a maximum volume level of 0, -10, or -20 dB to limit the receiver's total volume output. You can also specify a turn-on volume, from -80 to +18dB or Last (whatever the volume setting when the receiver was turned off).
Muting Level Adjustment: You can set the amount of attenuation for the audio muting circuit; -40dB or -20dB below current volume, or full mute (sound turned off entirely).
Assignable Digital Inputs: The AVR-1612 features an optical digital (Toslink) input and a coaxial digital input. Each input can be assigned to any of the different input sources except Tuner.
Speaker Terminals: The receiver has binding post terminals for all speaker outputs (Front L/R, Center, and Surround L/R). The binding posts can accept bare wire, pin connectors, and single banana plugs. The terminals are spaced too far apart for dual banana plugs. The collar surrounding the binding post terminals prevent the use of spade connectors.
Note: The receiver will accept speaker impedances of 6 to 16-ohm.
Surround Back/Front Height Pre-Out: The AV receiver is equipped with a pair of Surround Back/Front-Height Pre-Outs, so you can connect a secondary amplifier to power a pair Surround Back (DD+, TrueHD, DTS-HD) or Front-Height (DPL IIz) speakers for 7.1ch surround.
Headphones: When headphones are plugged into the full-size 1/4" jack on the front panel, all the speakers are automatically muted.
AM/FM Tuner: The Denon AV receiver features a built-in AM/FM tuner with 56 station auto-preset memory tuning. You can also set your presets manually. You can even label these presets. In addition, you can even directly tune in a frequency using the receiver's remote control.
HDMI (v1.4): With four HDMI (v1.4) inputs, the AVR-1612 allows you to route multiple high-definition devices--like game consoles and Blu-ray players--to your TV. It also allows you to connect all of your devices to your TV with a single HDMI cable (via its HDMI monitor output), reducing cable clutter. The HDMI inputs are assignable to different input sources. They support HDCP copyright protection and are compatible with 3D signals, ARC, Deep Color, xvYCC technology, Auto LipSync, and HDMI control.
3D Pass-Through: With the advent of 3D media, it is important to own a receiver that recognizes 3D video signals. The AVR-1612 is able to pass through 3D signals from your Blu-ray player, ensuring that the 3D effect doesn't get lost in translation. It also recognizes signals from 3D television broadcasts. By connecting a 3D-compliant Blu-ray disc player and 3D-compliant TV to the AVR-1612, you will have a 3D home theater where you can enjoy high-definition sound and video on a level you've never experienced before.
HDMI Standby-Through: When enabling the HDMI Standby-Through function, regardless of whether the AV receiver is "on" or in "standby" both audio and video streams from an HDMI input will be output to your television, via the receiver HDMI monitor output. You can select between 2 HDMI Through functions modes.
ARC (Audio Return Channel): This feature allows audio to be sent from your compatible HDTV to your receiver through the same HDMI cable already being used to send audio and video to your HDTV. This eliminates the need for extra cables connected to your television.
Deep Color & x.v.Color Support: The AVR-1612 also supports Deep Color and x.v.Color content, which can display a larger color range than standard-definition schemes. The result is a more lifelike, vibrant picture
Auto LipSync: This feature automatically compensates for the timing shift between the audio and video of the receiver. If needed, the audio signal can be manually delayed to match the video signal; adjust from 0-200ms.
Analog Video Inputs: The receiver features 3 composite video inputs (2 rear/1 front) and one composite video monitor output. There is also a single S-video input. You must connect the receiver to your TV via composite video to view incoming video from the receiver's composite or S-video inputs.
Note: There are no component video inputs or outputs.
Video Select Function: You can switch the video input source on the receiver while listening to a different audio signal.
Front Panel AV Input: The front panel's Video Aux input features analog stereo RCA and composite video input.
USB Port: A USB memory device can be connected to the USB (type-A) port located on the front-panel, allowing you to play music files through the receiver. The USB memory device must be formatted in FAT16 or FAT32. Compatible audio formats include MP3 (32-320kbps), WMA (48-192kbps), and AAC (16-320kbps). The unit can recognize up to 2,000 folders, and 6,000 files.
Note: USB memory device will not work via a Hub.
iPod/iPhone Direct: With its built-in USB (type-A) port, the AVR-1612 supports digital music playback from an iPod or iPhone. Using a USB-to-iPod Dock cable plugged into the front-panel USB port, music can be played directly from your iPod/iPhone, bypassing the iPod/iPhone's D/A converter. The iPod/iPhone can be controlled by the receiver's remote, or you can continue to use the iPod/iPhone's clickwheel or touchscreen. Song/artist information and elapsed playing time appear on the AVR-1612's display and on the connected video monitor. Your iPod/iPhone's battery will also be charged while connected to the receiver. The AVR-1612 is "made for iPod/iPhone compatible" and supports the following iPod/iPhone models and functions via its front-panel USB port (as of Oct. 2011):

Does Fast Food Lead to Impatience?
Latest Diet & Weight Management News
Study: Thinking About Fast Food May Spur Desire for Instant Gratification
Kathleen Doheny
Reviewed By Laura J. Martin, MD
April 15, 2010 -- Despite saving us time, fast food may make us impatient and more likely to seek instant gratification, new research finds.
University of Toronto researchers Chen-Bo Zhong, PhD, and Sanford E. DeVoe, PhD, conducted a trio of experiments before coming to that conclusion in a report published in Psychological Science.
The first experiment found that exposure to fast-food symbols increases reading speed even when there's no pressure to read fast. In the experiment, they randomly assigned 57 college students to look at the center of a computer screen but ignore the corners. Those in the fast-food group were exposed to fast-food logos, flashed in the corners too quickly for the conscious mind to register the images. Those in the comparison group looked at blank squares in the corners. Next, when they all read a passage, those exposed to the logos had a faster reading speed.
In a second experiment, the researchers asked 91 participants either to recall a time they had a fast-food meal or the last time they went grocery shopping, then to rate the desirability of eight products, half of which were time saving (such as combined shampoo/conditioner) and half of which weren't (such as regular shampoo). Those asked to recall their fast-food meal desired the time-saving products more than those who recalled grocery shopping.
In the third experiment, 58 participants were asked to rate the aesthetics of logos either from fast-food franchises (McDonald's and KFC) or from inexpensive diners. Next, researchers asked about preferences on saving money. Saving money involves delayed gratification in order to receive a greater monetary gain in the future. Those who were exposed to the fast-food logos needed a much higher weekly interest rate to delay payment than did those in the comparison group.
Bottom line? "Exposure to fast food and related symbols reinforces an emphasis on impatience and instant gratification and ... fast food can have a far broader impact on individuals' behaviors and choices than previously thought," the researchers write.

JPEG is a free and open standard for storing digital images, such as you would take with a digital camera. JPEG is a "lossy" compression format, detailed below, allowing an image to be adjusted, losing some detail but requiring less space in the process.
JPEG is an incredibly successful standard, allowing computers, phones, printers, TVs, email, blogs, .. to exchange image files and understand each other. Some commonly understood standard format for what is "an image" is needed, and JPEG is the mostly widely used one.
JPEG stands for the Joint Photographic Expert Group, a technical committee which drafted the standard. I doubt it was possible at the time to understand how widespread and critical this format would become.
JPEG is a "lossy" format, meaning that the level detail preserved when a JPEG is saved is adjustable. Say the quality levels are in the range q1, q2, .. q10, q10 corresponding to very little compression and high visual quality and q1 corresponding to very aggressive compression with lower visual quality. In reality the scale terminology is not exact across systems, sometimes described as 0-10, or 1-100. An image saved with q10 saves the maximum detail, but the resulting file takes up the most space. An image can be saved with a lower quality level, causing it to lose some detail, but take up less space. Or in other words, q1 is more compressed, and q10 is less compressed. JPEG is very smart about the way it loses detail, so saving at something like q7 is a normal thing to do without losing appreciable detail.
Here are three versions of the flowers.jpg image
Here is the image as it originally came out of my camera. I believe the camera uses about q7 internally. This image takes up 48 KB. The "raw" form of the image takes up about 490 KB, so q7 is saving us about 10x space. JPEG works quite well.
Here is the image saved at q5, taking up 29 KB. I cannot see obvious differences between this version and the one above, although there must be some tiny differences.
Here is the same image, saved at q1, taking up 14KB (about 4x fewer bytes than the q7 version). Generally you don't want to compress this much. If you zoom way in, you can see the results of the compression in this version:
There are two things you notice in JPEGs as the shed detail:
Considering the the q1 version takes about 4x fewer bytes than the q7 version, JPEG does a good job keeping the basic look of the scene when asked to use less space.
How many bytes does an image take up? The main issue is just plain size -- how many pixels. The 457 x 360 flowers image has 164520 pixels. Say each pixel takes three bytes (one for each color channel), that's 493560 bytes or about 493 KB.
Note that the q7 flowers image up there takes up 48 KB (10x smaller than 493 KB), so even at relatively high quality levels, JPEG saves a huge amount of space -- that's why cameras use it internally.
My cheap little "12 megapixel" digital camera takes images which are 4000 by 3000 pixels, stored with JPEG compression of about q7. Each resulting image takes up about 3 MB. Without JPEG each image would take up: 12 million pixels x 3-byte-per-pixel = 36 MB.
GIF and PNG (Portable Network Graphics) are "lossless" image formats, recording every pixel exactly. They are used for non-photographic images, like little solid color borders. GIF is older and used to be patented. PNG is newer and performs a little better. Most recently, a form of GIF has been used for short, no-audio video clips.
MP3 is the dominant audio format (good example of a "network effect", a later topic). MP3 is lossy, like JPEG. Raw CD audio takes up about 10 MB per minute (this is how it is stored on an audio CD .. no compression). MP3 gets that down to about 1 MB per minute while still sounding pretty good. As with JPEG, you can choose the level of compression, say 2 MB per minute to keep more detail, or 512 KB per minute if space is at a premium.
MP3 is patented, and legitimately so. (Nick's opinion) Many modern software patents are garbage .. just patenting obvious solutions. However, MP3 is legitimate: it uses complex and non-obvious techniques to get its excellent 10x compression while still sounding good. If a device or software plays or produces MP3s, a license fee is due to the patent holders, on the order $1-$2 per instance. With each MP3 device you have owned over the years .. you have in effect paid this fee each time. Licensing of devices which can play video is similar.
AAC is a more modern form of MP3 used by Apple with their dominant iPod/iTunes system. AAC also features DRM (Digital Rights Management) features, which allow the original content owner to control how the purchaser can use the content they have "bought".
To provide a free and open alternative, the "Ogg Vorbis" audio format was developed. It is a free and open standard and royalty free and typically performs better than MP3. Aside: some geeks have a way of choosing tragically bad names for consumer facing technology, incorporating some obscure reference or joke. I think Ogg Vorbis would be much more widely adopted if they had chosen a better name.
A video is basically a series of images -- 20 to 60 per second, plus an audio "track". Video data takes up a lot of bytes, but computers have now become powerful enough to handle video. Very roughly speaking, say compressed video of about DVD quality takes about 2 GB per hour (roughly 30 MB per minute, or 0.5 MB per second). In reality, there is a very large range of video sizes -- HD video takes more space, smaller YouTube video takes less space. Video compression is complicated and the techniques are heavily patented.
MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group) standardizes some video formats in the industry, and the MPEG-LA (Licensing Authority) handles collecting patent royalties, which are significant.
MPEG-2 is used in DVDs and some satellite TV systems, originally released in 1995. Compression techniques have gotten significantly better since then.
MPEG-4 and particular the "h.264" compression system is very good at producing good looking video with the minimum bytes. Most digital video cameras, phones, and Blu-ray disks use h.264 internally to compress and store the video data. Patent fees are paid by the manufacturer to produce an encoder or decoder in hardware or software.
One surprising thing about the h.264 licensing is that it does not come with an unrestricted right to distribute your own video. You have properly bought a video camera (paying for the patents), and produced your video and stored it on your hard drive. However, if you want to make a web site or whatever that distributes the video to many people, you may have to pay additional royalties for each minute distributed of your video. There may be exceptions if your video is distributed for free, however these terms have been changed over time, so really you have to consult a lawyer to see what you are permitted to do with your video. These license restrictions strike me as unusually obnoxious and certainly out of step with how you usually think of having your own data file. My guess is that MPEG did not have a lot of competition, resulting in these one-sided terms.
In support of a free and open internet, Mozilla, Google and others have been working on a free and open video compression scheme to compete with h.264 -- free to encode or decode video, and free to distribute the video however its owner wishes. Those are the sorts of terms under which the internet has thrived (and some poor villager in Africa should be able to watch an internet video without first paying a $1 for a license. The most recent iteration, mostly driven by Google, is the WebM format and project: WebM project.
Bottom line: if you convert a video to .webm format, and then you don't have to worry about the licensing for yourself or your audience. However, Safari and IE do not support WebM without installing extras. Google is doing the right thing here, and Microsoft and Apple should be embarrassed to be so clearly on the wrong side of internet history. In Firefox and Chrome, everything will just work.
Before HTML5, there was not a good way to embed video, so everyone used Flash with all its problems. However, this has changed with the new HTML5 video tag to embed video right inside an HTML page.
Here's our earlier hard-drive example video embedded with a <video> tag as follows (the video is kind of big). Note how similar this is to putting in an image tag.
<video src="how-a-hard-drive-works.webm" controls="1" width="700">
So how did video work for the pre-HTML5 web? The Flash plugin. Flash is a proprietary format produced by Adobe. It is specific to Adobe, not a standard, and it is patented. Flash supports animation (you see it to make ads in web-pages a lot), and it also supports video. Internally, the most recent versions of flash use h.264 for video compression.

We were supposed to be travelling around Normandy/Brittany and ended up staying in Arromanche for most of our holiday.The site was basic and very quiet (just what we wanted). The showers and loos were kept very clean, never once did I find them grotty,(a mop/brush type of thing was outside the door in the showers to clean the floor after yourself and leave it clean for the next person), and always a supply of paper! The actual camping pitch was a good size plenty of room for our 4 man tent and car. We found the staff very accommodating and friendly. (It always helps if we try and be friendly too - we were on 'bonjour' terms with the owners/managers and the cleaners! There was a freezer in reception for ice blocks and I charged my phone there once (for no charge).
The only complaint I have is there isnt an actual dog walking area. Dogs are aloud on the site and are expected to be on leads at all times. Owners walked their dogs an vacated pitches which I didnt like even though they picked up after their dog.I thought this was a bit yuk - didnt like the thought that a dog had done its business where my tent was pitched.
We would certainly recommend the site and would stay there again

Susan Nelson Fleiss was a beloved wife, sister, mother to three young children, extraordinarily talented architect, popular teacher, and devoted friend. She was diagnosed with colon cancer in January 2011, and lost her brief but brave battle just 11 weeks later.
Susan was loved by so many, and her tragic and untimely diagnosis and death left her family and thousands of friends utterly devastated.
And yet, through that tragedy, Susan's supporters all came together to honor her request that they support Camp Kesem. As they raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to help the millions of children affected by a parent's cancer, old friends reconnected, new friendships were formed, ambitious students were given a chance to bring Camp Kesem to their communities, and children affected by a parent's cancer were guaranteed a spot in camp for many years to come.
The Susan Nelson Fleiss Memorial Fund at Camp Kesem was established by Susan's family and friends to build a positive, lasting legacy of her generous and warm spirit, ensuring that Camp Kesem "magic" could be made available to as many of the more than 3 million children affected by a parent's cancer as possible. The first annual Susan's Magic Makers event introduced this special fund, and Susan's legacy will be celebrated in honoring others who have turned tragedy into triumph at all future Susan's Magic Maker events.
Susan's Magic Makers was established in 2012 and has become an annual event in memory of Susan Nelson Fleiss and benefitting Camp Kesem. Our 2015 event was our 4th annual benefit.

I have no experience of Classilla but two alternative approaches come to mind:
1 - Try iCab 3.0.5 from: http://www.icab.de/dl.php
2 - Ubgrade the iMac to Tiger (OS X 10.4)
britny Nov 18, 2012 5:53 PM
in response to Neville Hillyer
1. i thought classilla was the big dog in classic. oh well, i'll try it anyway. i got this idea by putting tenfourfox on my girlfriend's computer a few days ago and i'm really pleased with that and classilla is made by the same people. i've heard of icab, may give that a try also. i see that icab 3.0.5 and 2.9.9 are still available. so you think 3.0.5 is better?
2. i'm running 10.2.8 on the other side of the imac and to upgrade i would have to buy some more memory and a 10.4 disc. it's really not worth that extra expense for me since i wasn't relying on this machine for internet anyway. this is the only machine i've got (right now) where i can "play" around in os9.
i still can't believe that no one here in this classic forum has tried classilla 9.3.1.
Neville Hillyer Nov 19, 2012 2:04 AM
in response to britny Helpful
Use the latest iCab compatible with the OS - see my earlier link.
Most of those able to do so have moved to OS X.
I find SeaMonkey-PPC better than TenFourFox - see my page at:

oh well. i tried em both and am disappointed. a couple of my "critical" sites just don't display properly. i'll go back to my original plan. that is to get a macbook to sit beside the g3 imac and use the macbook for internet.

Hey Britny are you sure? Did you downloaded the last update? I got a G3 800mhz running Classilla, and it works fine (not perfect but fine). But as another said here, upgrading to 10.4.11 will be nice, also if you feel that 10.4 is to much (it could be) go for the 10.3 instead. 10.3 is really GREAT, and looks pretty much like 10.4 but without the Dashboard.
Good luck.
